    Newbe link help, please

    Greetings, from what I think is my first post.  Sorry if the following has been answered many times elsewhere, or in a FAQ, that I can't find but...

     

    In our house we acquired the existing Link room setup and are about to expand.  Currently, in the 'main' room there is a BeoVision Avant 32 VCR serving the speakers with a Link to an Overture.  In a second room there is a BeoVision AV9000 TV serving a couple of BeoLab 1 speakers, and then there are 5 BeoLink 3500s around the house.  When I select TV on the link room 3500s I control the AV9000 (get the TV, SAT, siganls from that).  How do I set the Avant 32 to be the master for the link room?  I believe it's a combination of config control on the Beo4, but can't remember...

    In the near future, I will be adding a BeoSystem 3 and then will want this to be the master, along with a 9000 CD system.

    Many thanks

     

    EDIT: Maybe this'll help - http://www.beoworld.org/manuals_view.asp?pid=1238   Sorry!

    Welcome to Beoworld. You have a very similar system to me! The problem you have with this set up is that the AV9000 can only be a master and not a slave. No doubt the Avant is set up as a slave. There is not an easy answer to this. I have the AV9000 set up as a non linked set.

    It is only the AV9000 that has this restriction - probably no-one thought at the time that anyone would want a £10,000 set up to be a secondary set! Laughing

    Thanks.  I've set the Avant up as a Master now, and unplugged the Link from the 9000.  Not the best solution, but works.
