Beolink 5000 keeps reverting to one way mode.
6 replies
Hi everyone,
I use a Beolink 5000 in one way mode to control things in my office.
Unfortunatly the remote seems to regularly return to two way mode making it complicated to use.
At first I thought it was a problem with battery contact: loose batteries cut power tus reverting it to initial state (two way).
I secured battery contacts si I think I can rule out this cause.
Do any of you experience this or have any idea?
Thanks.
Hi,
Mine has the same problem from the beginning, with a 2 way Beovision and a 1 way Beocenter.
I also explored the "batteries way" with no success. I think it's software-related.
The TV is gone, but the probem remains and I never found any way to solve it, unfortunately.
So if someone can help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Infected at the age of 13 by a BG 4000 in Dad's Hifi shop.
I've seen that when using normal non-rechargeable batteries on the Beolink 5000s that I've renovated. The minus pad is often to small and create bad contact in the battery bay, especially the midle one. . Problem was solved by using rechargeable batteries (Ikea LADDA) where the minus pad is bigger.
Hope this can help.

Thank you Steffen,
I use Ladda batteries: I like to keep it all "nothern"!
And I've add aluminium foil pads to secure the contacts.

Maybe a hint,
Because of my setup (two Beosound Daisy-chained) and mu usage (once one, once the second, once both…) I need to fiddle with the "LINK" prefix key.
Sometimes when I need to shut all down I make a long press on the "Stand-by" key that turn all off.
I wonder if this do not make the remote revert to two way mode., because to change the mode, process say you must turn off the remote with a long press on "STBY".) barely similar to taking the batteries out and in the remote.
