Richard, are you using a BEO5 remote ?. Becuase I understand you could set up the various timing delays to suit the equipment and how it should operate in sequence.

 PS: I  am just about to have installed the same system. Anmy tips for me as to what I should watch out for. YOu could PM me if possible ?

 

Peter, from my point of view a BEO5 would not help in this type of setup. The Samsung projector is controlled by the BS3 (like a PUC) and the "action" is triggered by the FORMAT 0 command and the cinema control setting in the customer service menu. So it is a fully automated process.

In my setup I have a JVC HD1 controlled by a Lintronic box via RS232. The Lintronic box listens to the trigger output of the BS3 and switches the projector on and off acording to the cinema control settings. Compared to the IR controll of the JVC projector there is no box "Do you really really want to switch off?" via RS232. Nice!

So in general RS232 is much more reliable than IR. Not sure if the Samsung could work in the same way.

First of all thanks for letting us know. MY Projector, Stewart Screen, BS3 etc arrives in about 2 weeks. James the showroom Manager is very knowledgable and has spent some time playing with the same setup in the B&O store. He likes it so much that he has also bought the same setup for his home. So, this does bode well. When mine is set up I shall reply with the settings and let you know.
