Yes I tried that, but it pretty much behaves the same. When I touch it and it fires up, it still takes several seconds before I can adjust the volume for example, and always have to choose source first... And it reads "No contact". Should it do this?

Hi guys, since I no longer have the Beocenter 2300 in use (two way comm version) I set my Beolink 5000 (primary remote) to one way yesterday, but now I would like to do the same with my Beolink 7000. Is that possible? It's annoying to wait for the; Searching... Co contact screen! I tried a search but did not find out how, it doesn't say in the

Alex: Yes, they switch over to it when it's available I believe. In this case, the volume controlling is handled by the BeoLab 5s which receive the volume information down the 8/8 PowerLink. Can I check this somehow?

Alex: You need 8/8 PowerLink as well as the digital connection. Now there was my problem! Funny enough the Lab 5 manual don't say that. It only says you can also connect them with a digital cable. Do the lab 5's know automatically when there's a digital signal available?

OK, so I think I got the system setup. Had to change the Beolink 5000 to one way. BTW with the mk2 version you have to hold down the power button until it says "system standby" and then press "shift" and then "menu" that's how you get into the terminal setup. However I have one more question. Do I need both powerlink

One problem might be that my Beolink 5000 is now in two way mode, and I read that I should press menu and be able to choose, but it does not seem to work...

When I press the loudness button for example, the display on the Beospund 9000 says: TV operated! Ironically I don't have a beo4 right now, can I change this via my beolink 5000 or someway via the controls on the Beosound 9000? :(

So just bought a Beosound 9000 from my dealer. It's an ex demo unit. It doesn't respond to my Beolink 5000 remote. And when I put it on manually, it doesn't activate the Beolab 5's. They are connected via the SPDIF.

Why couldn't the signal be digital? TV's signal is digital and transfered on the same old coaxial cables that used to transport analogue signals.

The lab 2000 is a great link machine. I used to have one in the kitchen, but sadly I sold it. All you need is power and a ML cable.
