That did the trick! Could not type in 2002 on CONFIG? on the new Beo4 remote for whatever reason, but could with the old one. Then successfully could sent with that same old remote A.OPTION > 1 to Beomaster 7000 (saw it being received) and then everything worked again; also with the new Beo4 remote.

Thanks you so much!

With “It was sort of working before” I meant after removing Beovision 7-32 and Masterlink from the system. It did work yesterday briefly when the system was finally  a pure audio setup: Beomaster with a connected Beo CD, Beo tape deck and Beo record player (the complete set) and two Beolab 4 speakers attached to it. All is working fine when using buttons on the devices. It might have stopped working because I did a RESET? on the Beo4 (I wanted to clear out all config for the now gone TV), or just by coincidence . I just want to rule out all options before I decide to bring in the Beomaster 7000 for repair of a faulty IR receiver.

Looking at this thread https://archivedforum2.beoworld.org/forums/t/18489.aspx, might there also not be an option to turn off the IR receiver at the BM7000 and I might have accidentally done that when resetting the Beo4? Because, before that, the remote was sort of working. And if that is another solution, question remains how to turn on the IR receiver on the BM7000.

Thanks, reconfigured the Beo4 remote like you. instructed. But still doesn’t work. Just to confirm, the IR receiver in the BM7000 is internal? I don’t need an external IR receiver for it? I dismantled so many things yesterday when removing the Beovision 7-32 out of the equation that I want to be sure about this.

I can’t see anything lighting up from the Beo4 with little navi button (maybe it’s to faint?).

I do have another Beo4 however, the middle one in your picture, where I see faint red light appear when pressing buttons. However, trying A.OPTION > 1 with that one on the Beomaster 7000 still doesn’t do anything.

And yes, I do have the most right Beo4 remote with the little knob instead of the GO button.

I would be very coincidental if the Beo4 just gave up emitting IR signals at the same time I removed the TV out of my installation. How do I exactly check Beo4 remote working with an iPhone selfie camera?

I have it in standby, but I don’t see any acknowledgement from the Beomaster 7000. Could it be I need to point it to the IR receiver more closely, and if so, where is that positioned on the Beomaster 7000. Or could another device (like the Apple TV I do have) capture the IR signal before it reaches the Beomaster 7000?
