    If you zoom in on the adaptor in this eBay listing you can just about read the output as 5V, 700mA:  https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/389846769296

    It looks like a USB-A plug is connected to the adaptor.

    I have now sent you the .rul files.

    The two executable files that I have are the ones downloadable from Beoworld at the bottom of the list here:  https://beoworld.org/beotech/reference-manuals-beotech/

    If you can send me one of the *.RUL files that are hiding in the Program Files folder for each app (or just the installer exe if you have it?) I can check the versions and dates…

    I’ve sent you a private message – the .rul files (and probably the .exe) are an invalid file type to attach here or in private messages.

    Further to the above –  I think I just accidentally deleted one of the image attachments from your post (my Moderator powers allowed this as I clicked ‘delete’ instead of ‘view’) – many apologies and I hope you can re-add the image.  If not, send it to me and I will add.

    ^ Great work – that looks really useful!

    I often use the PCG to answer questions here on Beoworld, but I run it on a Windows 7 Virtual Machine on a QNAP NAS.  A web based alternative will be very useful!

    I do have a couple of PCG SW downloads on my drive:  One is called ‘Product Configuration Guide (version 2.6.4)’ and the other ‘Product Configuration Guide27’ – I think I downloaded both from Beoworld many years ago, hence think that you probably have these.  Let me know if not.

    We are moving ever closer 🙂

    Why not have a quick look

    Looking forward to it!  In particular the merging of the two Archived Forums into the main forum – this will hopefully make searching considerably easier.

    I generally use google with a search term such as:

    ‘soren Beolab 5000 site:archivedforum.beoworld.org’

    or

    ‘soren Beolab 5000 site:archivedforum2.beoworld.org’

    Could this be one of the threads that you are looking for?  https://archivedforum.beoworld.org/forums/t/43071.aspx

    Hi Evan,

    It could be because you are only showing as a Bronze Member, and you need to be Silver or Gold to access the manuals.

    If you think your membership is incorrect can you please contact admin using the ‘contact’ link top right.

    Many thanks!

    Hello

    Has anyone redesigned a PCB for the BEO4, using the BEO4’s keyboard and case but with homemade electronics (e.g., an ESP with a new display)?

    If anyone has done that then it hasn’t been reported on this forum, as far as I am aware (I joined approx 20 years ago!).

    Some companies do provide extra PCBs to increase the functionality of the remote:  https://shop.oneremote.dk/stb-controller-for-beo4/

    Have a look at this thread – I see no reason to doubt Peter’s answer about specific type numbers:

    It’s a bit of a guess but perhaps the stand-by battery has failed.  There’s advice on the forum, and I can let you have a picture of where to find it if required.

    You could try the battery reset procedure even without replacing the battery – it’s in my post here: https://forum.beoworld.org/forums/topic/beocenter-9500-restore-keyboard-leds-partly-not-lit/#post-61370

    Sorry for reply in English!

    If you can hear the motor running, it could be a fault with the CD clamper belt – have a look at this video, the CD clamper belt is at 15:25:

    I put this in the configuration tool and suggest the following:

    Try the BS5 in A.OPT 1 – I think it should auto-configure.

    And the BS4 in A.OPT 6.

    But the Config Tool does also say that if you want the BS4 to be the ‘audiomaster’ and only use BS5 for N.MUSIC/N.RADIO, then audiomaster YES/NO must be set to NO on the BS5 which then disables its OPTION settings.  I hope this makes sense!

    It sounds like the unit is faulty.  It could be worth going back to the seller to ask for a refund.

    Hi Jonny and welcome to Beoworld!

    Even with nothing else connected, you should get at least a stand-by light, and the Timer light should come on also when you press the Timer button.

    I assume that the C7 lead has been checked with something else to prove the fuse in the plug is OK (if in UK), and that the C7 connector is pushed fully into the socket?

    Yes, I can control BV11 on BO app, but wife is not happy with phone controls:)

    I assume new beoremote1 displays with 4 buttons can be matched with old aluminum frames….I am still thk if I should buy a new beoremote 1 or just the display/buttons panel

    Have you searched the BV11’s menus for something that allows you to select a noo-navi remote? (as suggested by carolpa)

    Also, have you tried to update the TV’s software/firmware using the B&O app?

    Have you tried my suggestion about controlling the TV using the B&O app?  Your TV will need to be connected to a network for this to work.

    If you do manage to connect to a network with internet access, you may be able to download a SW update for your TV that will then allow you to choose a ‘no navi button’ remote control option.

    No, all Beo4, Beolink 1000 and Beoremote One can actually control the BV11.

    It all depends on how the BV11 is setup. Look in the setup for the option to select the correct type of Beo4.

    I too thought that, but found this in a BV11-40 manual:

    Note that your Beo4 remote control
    must be set to mode 1. For more
    information, see the Beo4 online guide.
    You cannot use a Beo4 remote control
    without navigation button.

    So perhaps some SW versions did not have the facility to chose remotes with/without navi button.

    Is this considered to be the Beo 4 ‘with’ a navi button/joystick?

    No, that’s an earlier version.

    The navi one is the only Beo4 that you can set to Mode 1, and is on the far right of this picture: (click to enlarge – you can see the ‘joystick’ in place of the GO button of the earlier versions)
