INTRODUCING BEOCENTER AV5

USING THIS GUIDE

2

Before you start…

Two guides are enclosed with the BeoCenter AV5;
a User’s guide and a Setting-up guide.

We recommend that you (or your Bang & Olufsen
dealer) follow the instructions in the Setting-up
guide when you set up your BeoCenter AV5. If
you connect auxiliary equipment to your system,
you must also refer to the Setting-up guide for
instruction.

Apart from explaining how to set up and make
the system ready for use, the Setting-up guide
also includes maintenance instructions and
information which you may need from time to
time.

The User’s guide then explains how to tune and
preset your BeoCenter AV5 as well as operate the
various sources and functions offered by
BeoCenter AV5, using the Beo4 remote control.

This illustration exemplifies the
different types of information,
presented in this guide…

The section, marked a, gives you a
step-by-step instruction of the
operation in question.

Section a includes:

• The buttons you must press to
complete the operation. The buttons
displayed correspond to the buttons
on the Beo4 remote control.

• The captions which give you
important information. The captions
must be read in order to complete
the operation successfully.

The section, marked b, supports the
button sequence.

Section b includes:

• The relevant on-screen menus which
you call up when you follow the
step-by-step button instruction.

• A text which gives you an additional
introduction to the operation in
question, and provides you with
examples of how you could benefit
from using the function in question.

Before you start operating BeoCenter
AV5, it may be a good idea to famil­iarise yourself with the Beo4 operating
principles.

Your BeoCenter AV5 is designed for
remote operation using the Beo4
remote control.

Most operations are carried out via the
Beo4 remote control. The somewhat
more advanced functions in the
BeoCenter AV5 are guided by menus
which you call up on the screen (see
pages 6-7).

Beo4, furthermore, integrates remote
operation of your BeoCenter AV5 and
the daily functions in other recent
Bang & Olufsen systems.

Note: A few functions are operated directly on
the small operation panel on the back of the
BeoCenter display bar. Please refer to BeoCenter
AV5 close-up operation, pages 52-54 for further
information.

Operating BeoCenter AV5 with Beo4

Your Beo4 remote control commands are
registered by a small receiver in the display bar,
placed on top of BeoCenter AV5 to the right

PRINCIPLES OF REMOTE OPERATION

Nice to know about Beo4 buttons...

In the step-by-step operating sequences shown
in this guide, the buttons on the Beo4 and cues
in the Beo4 display will be illustrated like this:

Rectangular buttons for source
control, numbers and dedicated
functions, such as Teletext and
menu operation

Buttons within the star-shaped
button for stepping, selecting or
winding

The circular GO button is for
accepting and storing instructions

The coloured buttons within the
star-shaped button are used for
special functions, it will be
explained when and how to use
them

The double-button LIST means
‘press repeatedly’ to reveal more
cues or functions in the Beo4 LIST
of functions

The cues or functions in the Beo4
display indicate either the current
source or operation you are
addressing or an extra function
which you call up by pressing LIST

TV

GO

LIST

:

The Beo4 remote control is divided into
5 areas. Each area has its own
dedicated functions.

The buttons are arranged so that your
operation of the various functions in
BeoCenter AV5 is made as simple and
clear as possible.

The Beo4 display reads out which
source or function you are controlling,
but if you press the LIST button, the
cue on the display changes and reveal
more functions or buttons available for
the operation of BeoCenter AV5*.

*Note: If some operations require a function or
button which is not already available when you
press the LIST button, you can add the function to
your Beo4 and rearrange the order in which all
the extra functions on Beo4 appear, please refer
to Beo4’s own User’s guide and the chapter
Customising your Beo4 for further instruction.

Note: Please refer to the special Beo4 User’s guide
for further information about the remote control.

The Beo4 display tells you which
source or function you are using
– It also displays extra functions.

Source buttons for switching on;

buttons for Audio/Video

operation and recording.

Number buttons; Teletext and

menu control buttons.

The control buttons within the

star-shaped button are for winding

or selecting, for stepping and for

accepting and storing information.

Let AV5 tune in your TV stations

The BeoCenter AV5 auto tuning
function tunes in all your TV stations
automatically. Before you call up the

Auto tuning of Satellite equipped with
motorised dish…

If your Outdoor Unit arrangement for Satellite
reception includes a motorised dish and an
external positioner, you must direct the
position of the dish to the Satellites you want
to auto tune stations from.

Once the external positioner is connected to
your BeoCenter AV5, start the tuning process
using the Beo4:

• Press SAT, then MENU, and now press GO to
call up the SAT SETUP menu

• Press

▼ until MANUAL TUNING is lit up,

then press GO to call up the menu

• Then tune in to a frequency of an
appropriate station transmitted by the
Satellite you are trying to tune in from

• Press

▼ until POSITION is lit up and adjust

with

ss or tt as required.

• Now press STOP to leave the SAT MANUAL
TUNING menu

• Then press

▲ until AUTO TUNING is lit up

and press GO to call up the SAT AUTO
TUNING menu and press

tt to start auto

tuning stations

Repeat the procedure for the stations which
are tuned in from other Satellites and adjust
the position of the dish as appropriate.
However, in order to keep the stations you
have tuned in already, and just auto tune the
new Satellite stations, you must call up the
item UPDATE TUNING instead of AUTO
TUNING, see page 22 for further information
about the update tuning function.

13

Let AV5 tune in your Radio stations

The BeoCenter AV5 auto tuning
function tunes in all your Radio
stations automatically. Before you call
up the menu for auto tuning, you must
choose Radio as your source.

You can tune in up to 59 Radio
stations. As the tuning progresses, the
registered stations appear on the menu
with a program number and a name, if
any such is registered*.

If a station’s frequency appears on the
menu, you can name the station in the
program list which appears on the
screen as soon as the auto tuning is
completed.

See page 14 for instructions of how to
use the program list.

*Note: Names for Radio stations are only
registered automatically if RDS is broadcast with
the station. RDS is a facility which enables Radio
broadcasters to transmit information such as a
station name along with the station itself. If RDS
is not broadcast, the station’s frequency will
appear on the menu.

Note: If the auto tuning function fails to tune in a
particular Radio station, you may have to use the
manual tuning function, see pages 20 -21 for
further instructions.

*Naming a station…

If you choose to name a station yourself, the
station or program number you select will be
emphasised to make the actual naming easier, as
illustrated on the program list for TV stations to
the right.

To write a name character by character, you press

▲ or ▼ until you find the first character you want

in your name. For TV or Satellite, this character
may appear as a part of a preset name which has
been entered to make the naming process easier
and faster. In order to match up the station with
an appropriate preset name, move to the next
space and press

▲ or ▼ to find the second

character in a name.

If a preset name is available for the station in
question, it may appear automatically, and all you
have to do is accept this preset name. If an
appropriate name does not appear, you simply
move to the next space and repeat the procedure
– 8 character spaces are available for a name.

With respect to Radio stations, the station’s own
name may be broadcast via the RDS facility and
appear during auto tuning or manual tuning. If
no name is broadcast, the Radio frequency will
appear on the list. If you choose to name a Radio
station which has already been given a name via
the RDS facility, the information received via RDS
will be cancelled for this particular station. If you
store the station again, however, the RDS facility
will of course apply again.

Press

▲ or ▼ repeatedly to reveal the

second character for this space or find
the appropriate preset name…

If no preset name is available – continue
to move to different character spaces
and ‘write’ the name…

Press GO to store the name

To move or clear a station in the list…

Select the station you want to move
or clear

Press to move the station out next
to the list

To move the station…

Press to move it down or up the
list to its new program number

Press to move the station back into
the list

If two stations change places, now move
the ‘old’ station to another program number…

Or, clear the station…

Press the Yellow button twice to
clear the station

Tuning in TV stations

Before you start…

On a multi-standard BeoCenter AV5, several
broadcast systems may be available for stations, so
check that the correct broadcast system is
displayed before you start tuning, otherwise some
stations may not appear during tuning. To do so,
call up the second menu for manual tuning of TV
stations, then select the correct system.

You can tune in your stations yourself.
Assign them with a program number,
as well as a name, and, if it proves
necessary, determine whether a
decoder should be cut in.

You can furthermore choose a type of
sound or language you wish to store
for your station.

Select ON/AV for most coded stations, in order to
get both sound and pictures. If only the video
signal is coded, select ON/V. If you select ON/AV
where only the video signal is coded, the sound
may be lost when the signal is decoded.

Note: If an extra decoder is connected to the AV
socket and DECODER-2 is registered in the AV
socket menu (see the Setting-up guide for further
information), select 1/V or 1/AV for Decoder
number 1; 2/V, 2/AV for Decoder number 2; or OFF
for no decoder.

SOUND (mono/stereo/language)
The following types of sound may be available:

MONO… FM/NICAM mono sound
STEREO… NICAM/ A2 stereo sound
MONO1… Mono language 1
MONO2… Mono language 2

MONO3… Mono language 3
STEREO2… Stereo language 2

Note: MONO3 and STEREO2 are only available, if
a NICAM stereo system decoder is built into your
BeoCenter AV5.

Even though you store your preferred type of
sound/language in this way, you may still switch
between the various types of sound while you are
watching this TV station. See page 44, Switching
sound, for further instruction.
