Appendix 8: Control of BeoLab 90 using the BeoRemote 1
21.1
Introduction
The BeoRemote 1 can be used instead
of the smartphone interface to control
a number of parameters on the BeoLab
90. The usage and setup of these are
described below
Note that, in order to control the
BeoLab 90’s with the BeoRemote 1,
two things must initially be configured.
Firstly, the infra-red receiver (also
known as an “IR Eye”) must be
correctly connected to the Master
BeoLab 90. Secondly, the BeoRemote
1 must be set to the “BeoSound”
product on its display. In addition, the
BeoLab 90 must be “paired” to the
BeoSound product (since there are
multiple BeoSound options).
21.1.1
Customising the
Product Name
It is possible to customise the product
name displayed on the BeoRemote 1
(for example, to read “BeoLab 90”
instead of “BeoSound”). This can be
done as follows:
1. Press LIST
2. Scroll down to SETTINGS and
press the round GO button
3. Scroll down to ADVANCED and
press GO
4. Select PRODUCTS and press GO
5. Select RENAME and press GO
6. Select the item you wish to
rename and press GO
7. “Type” in the new name for the
item
8. When you are done, scroll all the
way to the right of the list of
letters and select the CHECK
MARK to store.
21.2
Input Selection
It is possible to manually change the
input selection of audio sources using
the BeoRemote 1. In addition, the
display of the remote control can be
customised to reflect your particular
setup.
21.2.1
Source Selection
If you press the MUSIC button on the
remote, you will see a number of
sources listed there that are scrollable
using the UP/DOWN buttons, and
selectable using the GO button on the
remote control. Firstly, you will need to
customise this list as follows:
1. press LIST
2. Scroll down to SETTINGS and
press GO
3. Scroll down to MUSIC sources
and press GO
4. Select SHOW and press GO
5. Use the GO button to place a
check mark next to the following
items in the following list. (It may
also be helpful to remove the
check marks next to the items
that are not in the list.)
- NET RADIO
- MUSIC
- LINE IN
- CD
- A.MEM
Now press the MUSIC button and you
should see these 5 items in a scrollable
list on the screen of the remote. These
5 are mapped to the inputs of the
BeoLab 90 as follows:
BL90 Input
BR1 Display
Automatic
Music
RCA
Line-In
XLR
A.Mem
S/PDIF
CD
Optical
NET Radio
So, for example, if the BeoLab 90 is in
Automatic mode and you playing
signals on both the S/PDIF and the XLR
inputs simultaneously, you will hear
the S/PDIF signal if it has a higher
selection priority. Press MUSIC and
select A.MEM to switch manually to the
XLR input. Press MUSIC and select CD
to switch to the S/PDIF input.
21.2.2
Customising the Input
Names
It is possible to re-name these inputs
on the BeoRemote 1’s display so that
you do not have to remember the
mapping. This can be done as follows:
1. Press LIST
2. Scroll down to SETTINGS and
press GO
3. Scroll down to MUSIC sources
and press GO
4. Select RENAME and press GO
5. Select the item you wish to
rename and press GO
6. “Type” in the new name for the
item
7. When you are done, scroll all the
way to the right of the list of
letters and select the CHECK
MARK to store.
Now, when you press the MUSIC
button, you will see the labels you
have entered instead of the default
ones listed above.
