Hi there,

   I have a question for the technical guys out here that already helped me so much till now :)

   I recently bought an LC2 light controler and will mount it on the wall trying to control  a normal lamp.

   I saw in a few B&O demos that lights would go at x% of the initial intensity when they strated the audio systems.

   How can they do this? I think  a certain type of transceiver is needed or something in order to integrate the LC2 with my other B&O systems or this can be made just by programing the LC2 or the Beo 4 maybe?

Thank you in advance for your answers

Regards,

Stef

Hello Stefan, Hope you are doing fine! Most probably it has to do with Masterlink Gateway, or Beosystem 3 or Beo5!!!! I'm not quite sure if above mentioned are correct but I think it's very interesting topic! Best regards Spiros

Hi Spiros,

   Thx for your reply and it's nice to see you here.

   Anyone that can give me details about what product exactly I'll need then please send us a reply:)

I think, newer Beo demos refer to home automation via MLGW, but you can do this also with a Beo5 using a macro or via a Lintronic -238 box also programming a macro. With Beo5 create a button, that sends for example RADIO command in audio mode AND LIGHT - GO vommands. This will activate your Beomaster in Radio mode and your lamp. You can also use LIGHT - 1,2,3....9 for special light levels. You can do that with a Lintronic box using a Beo4 ( or Beo5). I`m using that for a "time to sleep" function. My Lintronic box is programmed to wait 45 seconds and then send a LIGHT - STOP command when receiving a STANDBY commannd in LIGHT mode. So, any Beo - BS9000, BS5, BV7 - will shut down immediately when I press LIGHT - STANDBY. Now I have time to take my glass wine and get out of the room. Now the lights - LC2s -  will be shut down automatically by the Lintronic box. You can even expand this for blinds, curtains controlled by a relay board.

Hope this helps

Stefan
