Calibrate the sound level

>> Loudspeaker setup – BeoVision 10-4 0/46

When you have connected speakers in a
surround sound setup to the television,
you must perform a speaker calibration.

A calibration sound is produced
alternately in each of the speakers you
have connected in your surround sound
setup. Your task is to adjust the sound
level from all the connected speakers to
match the sound level from the centre
speaker. You can choose whether you
want the sound sequence to occur
automatically or manually.

Once you have performed your speaker
calibration, you will only need to re­calibrate the speaker sound if you make
changes to the setup, for example, if you
move one or more of the speakers.

compensates for the human ear’s lack of
sensitivity to high and low frequencies.

These frequencies are boosted at low

volume levels so that low music becomes
more dynamic.

If you have connected external speakers,
you can preset two default speaker
combinations; one to be used each time
you switch on a video source in your
television, and one to be used each time
you switch on an audio source connected
to your television. You can still select a

between connected video 
equipment, such as a set-top 
box, video recorder or DVD 
player, and your Bang& Olufsen 
remote control.

available via a menu-overlay on 
the television screen, if you use a 
Beo4 remote control, or via the

Olufsen retailer.

Use the Beo4 remote control

If you have a Beo4 remote control, some

functions are available directly via Beo4

when you switch on the equipment.
Additional functions are available
through a menu-overlay that you bring

Distribute sound and picture with BeoLink

The BeoLink system makes it 

possible to distribute picture  
and/or sound to other rooms 
throughout the house.

For example, you can connect 
your television in the living room 
to another video system or set of 
speakers in another room, 
thereby making it possible to 
distribute the picture or sound to 
other rooms.

If you have a BeoLink distribution 
system installed, you can either 
use your television in the main 
room, such as a living room, or 
in a link room, such as a study or 
bedroom.

To distribute video signals to link 

rooms, it is necessary to connect 
a non-Bang& Olufsen link tuner 
to the link room.

Your television in a link room

If you have BeoLink installed in 
your home and you choose to 
place your television in a link 
room, you can operate all 
connected systems through the

2 Using your remote control,

program the link room television

to the correct Option

3 Disconnect the link room television

from the mains

4 Make the necessary connections
5 Reconnect the link room television

Two televisions in the same room

If you have placed your television 
in a room where you already 
have a Bang & Olufsen television, 
and commands from your 
remote control can be received 
by both televisions, you must 
change the Option setting of the 
television. This prevents 
simultaneous activation of both 
televisions.

When you Option program the
television, disconnect the television
you do not want to program from
the mains. This ensures that only the
television, you want to program,
receives the Option programming.

One remote control for both televisions

For your television to function properly,
it is essential that the television is set to

the correct Option, see page37 for

information on Option programming.

You must set your television to Option 4,

and if you have a Beo6, you must also
select the correct zone.*1

Beo4 – Operate your television in

Option 4 …

Normally, you can activate a source, such
as TV, simply by pressing the relevant
