Adapt BeoLab 5 to your system

The loudspeaker is set to 

Option

number 0 from the factory.

Therefore, when you connect the

loudspeaker to a Bang & Olufsen

audio or video system, it is not

necessary to change the 

Option

setting. In this case, the loudspeakers

are controlled via the Bang & Olufsen

system.

However, when the loudspeaker is

connected to a non-Bang & Olufsen

system, you must change the 

Option

setting. In this case, the Beo4 remote

control signals are received and

processed by the loudspeakers. Two

different 

Option

settings are available

– which to use depends on your

setup.

If the LINE output level of your 

non-Bang & Olufsen system exceeds 

2 V RMS, you must set the loudspeakers to

accommodate a higher input level 

(> 2 V RMS 

4 V RMS).

Option 0

Option 1

Option 4

Option 0

(factory setup): Used if connected to a

Bang & Olufsen audio (or video) system.

Option 1:

Used if connected to a non-Bang &

Olufsen system. You may have a Bang & Olufsen

television in the same room, if you wish.

Option 4:

Used if connected to a non-Bang &

Olufsen system – and you have an extra Bang &

Olufsen audio system in the same room.

A Beo4 remote control is used to change the

‘Option’ and the LINE input level setting.

To change the 

Option

setting:

> While holding down the • button, press 

LIST

> Let go of both buttons. 

> Press 

LIST

repeatedly until OPTION? is shown in

the Beo4 display. 

> Press 

GO

> Press 

LIST

repeatedly until L.OPT is shown in the

Beo4 display. 

> Key in the appropriate Option number (

0

1

or 

4

). 

The indicator light switches off briefly, confirming

that the new 

Option

number has been stored. 

To

ensure that all loudspeakers are programmed to

the correct number, repeat the procedure for each

loudspeaker separately.

To change the LINE input level setting:

> Press 

LIST

repeatedly until SOUND* is shown in

the Beo4 display. 

> Press 

GO

> Key in the appropriate LINE input level number

(

1

if LINE input level < 2 V RMS; 

2

if LINE input

level > 2 V RMS 

4 V RMS).

The indicator light switches off briefly, confirming

that the new LINE input level has been stored. 

To

ensure that all loudspeakers are set to the same

LINE input level, repeat the procedure for each

loudspeaker separately. 

*Must be added to the Beo4 LIST-function. To do

so, refer to the Beo4 Guide.
