The Beosound Essence MK II turns off after 6 hours. Seems like a count down. After switching channel or source this is started again. We tried today and exactly after 6 hours after switching channels on B&O Radio it just turns off. Any way how to disable this "feature" or how to change the hours before it turns off? Could not find anything on the integrated webserver (IP address web page for settings etc.). Thanks in advance Ralf

In addition to this there is also a timer feature.  Perhaps it can be either.

Thanks for your answer, unfortunately this does not change the behavior of the Essence. Was on 12 hrs, now on 24 hrs, but still turns off after 6 hrs. Ralf
