Hi All

Just inherited one of the above of Canadian origin (family friend) - my quetion is, anyone out there with a service manual or a transformer wiring diagram to enable conversion from 120volt operation to 230/240 volt operation , can it be done if so help please!

Trying to get it running to drive some pentavoxes!

Hi Tony, have you looked at the service manual for the ML/MCL Converter? They may have the same transformer inside.

The service manual for the Beolink passive is on site which also covers "ML/MCL converter etc...." and according to it then it is definately possible to do this. I would imagine it uses the same transformer as the MCL 2P can used for the same application.

Thanks both, forgot to add its a 1743 type

Craig have an ml / mcl job unfortunately its in a box here in finistere but i can't remember which one! - so its  back to the pastis then!

Just done some digging and according to one source the Beolink passive was based on the MCL 2P so converting the voltage in the transormer should be pretty straight forward judging by the service manual.

Having said all of this I'm not sure if the output of the MCL 2P would do penta's the justice they deserve.

Thanks guys

Think I'll take Chris's link and get a converter tranny at qabout £10 then have a play around with the onboard unit!!

I've had it done by the local TV repairman..... I guess it can't be too difficult then!!!

Where are you based i'm currently in france but returning in the near future if not too far distant maybe i could have a look?

Tony

I'm in Australia (Melbourne)

Bravo - silly me i realized after send the message coz of the melb - what a pratt i am!!

Ok can you open up the box an take a pic of the transformer end - p-m me with your email address and i'll return mine - don't think the forum can take quality pics onboard due to pixel total size limitations!

salut
