Thomas, Well, that's very interesting problem. Can I just confirm with you a few points:- Do you have speakers connected to your Powerlink sockets of your Beoport ? Do you have seperate PC speakers connected to your PC sound card ? Does your PC have it's sound card in a PCI slot or built onto the PC motherboard ? i.e. teh sound connectors are

Henry, I do not own a "Beolink Wireless 1" which is its formal name and I think it is unlikely that I ever will. However when it was first released I did review the product in some depth. When it was first released, the Beolink Wireless 1 could only work with the new version of Beolab 3500 which had updated software and Powerlink sockets,

If you don't find a quality SCART cable in the US, there are hundreds of UK web sites selling them. But I would start at Amazon.com in the US where I found them HERE

Not always, if it detects the Beo5 and says "New Hardware Found Beo5", then switching it off and on will not help. However if it finds it as an "Unknown" device then it will work.

It was the apparent software version of the bad Beocom 6000 is why I said what I did.

Jeff & Alex, A diagram of the SCART cable connections is shown below:- Pin 8 is used for two functions:- To change the format of the picture for example from 4:3 to 16:9 by the change of the DC voltage level. On top of the format changing voltage is a 1 volt digital "AVL" called "Audio Visual Link" which sends commnd data to

Based on everything you have said, I think you may have a faulty RF chip in the handset, it is quite common. If this is the case, then the only way to fix the phone is to upgrade it to a Mark II because the RF chip and module it is on are no longer made.

Let me add my welcome to Beoworld. I have reviewed the power supply circuit of the pentas and as you can see below it uses transformers with double windings meaning for 220 volts the windings are in series and for 110 volts they can be put in p arallel, however there is no actual switch, this is something which would be done in the factory. You may
