Introduction
This manual describes show to control a BOSE LIFESTYLE 18/28 system, by means of a Bang&Olufsen
BEO4 remote control.
The system is designed for owners of a Bang&Olufsen Television, whom wants to use the existing BEO4 to
remote control a BOSE LIFESTYLE 18/28.
An infrared converter, LinTronic TT455-RT-238 (with BOSE feature enabled) or TT455-RT-003 (dedicated
BOSE controller), receives the infrared signals from the BEO4, converts them into an appropriate BOSE
infrared signal, and sends it to the BOSE system.
It is assumed that the user owns:
-a BOSE LIFESTYLE 18/28 SERIES II system.
-a Bang&Olufsen Television (optional)
-a BEO4 remote control

Preparations
The LinTronic TT455-RT-238/TT455-RT-003 must be powered by 9 - 18 Volt dc, by an adaptor capable of
delivering 350 mA or higher, and must be located so it can receive the BEO4 signals and reach the BOSE
system when transmitting.
The BOSE system must be programmed to receive IR signals. Use the original BOSE remote control to
change the following:
Activate the BOSE remote control, key SYSTEM and watch the SYSTEM MENU appear on the TV screen.
Goto REMOTE CONTROL and set IR CONTROL to ON (do not select LEARN).
