Hello.

I have a B&O Ouverture and have bought Beolab Penta 1 to my living room.

How do i do to activate the displays? They are both shut down even if the music's on.

Doesn't the ouverture support the display in the speakers?

Best Regards

Magnus

How are you connecting the speakers to the Ouverture?

Plus, you need to switch the switch in the bottom of the speakers to Audio and not Video.

The Penta 1 doesn't have the audio/video switch. If you connect Beolab Penta 1 to the ouverture, you need a fully wired powerlink-cable and the powerlink-adapter for Penta 1. You connect 1 cable to the line-in and the second (looking like speaker-connector) is for the display.

Are you sure the displays are working?

Thanks for all the answers!

I have the adapter but i guess its my cable thats not right... its a really thin cable so i guess its just for the sound.

I know the displays are working because i saw them before i bought them, the guy used other cables then the ones i got.

**edit**

How do i know which kind of powerlink-cable i have?

Hey Magnus!
All you need to know is HERE, including photo's (from Jay)

Hope this helps.

I still havent got the displays working.

I bought Power Link MK2 cables but still not working.

This is how the panels look at my speakers.

When i bought them the panels were working but he had another stereo, it looked like the beocenter 9500.

I have tried both with my Ouverture and my Beosystem 2300 but with no success.

Anyone knows what i am doing wrong?

The cables are 10m Power Link MK2.

Thanks for all your answers!

My memory is not what it was but I'm fairly sure that the displays don't work with the PL adapter.

It has been discussed on Beoworld in the dim and distant past.

Peter may remember???

My PentaLab 1's where working with the PL adaptors and an Overture with the displays working.

They are being used on the back of an Avant now with the same adaptors and are still working.

Maybe something else?

I get them working when listening to cd but the volume states 00 and they go out with everything else!

quick question.... where do you purchase the adapter cables to powerlink?
