Beo 4 remote not working with Beosound Century
7 replies
Hello all
OK - I've gone through the forums with this one, but seem to have got a bit stuck on pairing the above
was given a Century with a Beo 4 remote ( no serial number) -was supposed to be working with remote ä few years ago...
Century working ok ( except tape transport) - but remote not talking.
Remote has IR flash coming from it ( via camera phone verification)
So - thought IR module capacitors were bust - so ordered new from D SParts, and fitted today.
but still no joy
Century does flash 1 ( once) if I do the - Power sound 1 store - routine.
Have reset remote ( i think)
have removed batteries and powered down both units for half h and restarted - no joy.
what next?
Is the IR sensor in the Century supposed to flash at any point? - can't see that happening via phone camera..but most prob just a receiver...?
Cheers
Is it possible your Beosound Century is in Audio Option 0? On your Beo4 hold down Standby and press List, then scroll to Option?, then scroll to A.Opt, then press 1. This will ensure the Century is in 'Receive IR Commands' mode.

Cheers -yes - have done that - still no joy. - the display reverts to standard once you press 1 - should it flash?

is the Beo4 set to option 4 operation only?
Hello All - thanks for the reply - I'm not getting notifications, hence the delay in replying
Another q - if the capacitors on the IR unit were duff - would the Century on flash 1 when trying to be set up? - just trying to confirm I undertook some reasonable soldering!
re the picture - it's the left one of the 5
Hope that helps?
Cheers
Chris
