Main room:

BV7-40 MkIV (with DVB-HD and HDR2) and BeoSound5

Linkroom:

MX4200

Problem:

All 3 units connected via MasterLink cable, BV7 and BeoSound5 interacts as they should. But MX4200 only shows TV, will not start up v.mem. MX4200 are in option 6. 

In service menu I can see the error ML CI - because of that I have changed all my junctions to be sure I have connected the ground wires correct.

I cannot clear the error even when the masterlink cable is disconnected from MX4200. Also tried a factory reset of the MX4200.

Question:

Could it be that the ML module in my MX4200 has an error resulting in error ML CI?

Any other suggestions?

Assuming that:
BV7-40 is in Opt 2, 
BSd5 is in Opt 0,
MX4200 in in Opt 6 and has been disconneted from power for min 1 min 
Masterlink cables are plugged in

- BV MX 4200 stays connected to mains

- disconnect BV 7-40 and BS 5 from mains for a minimum of 1 min 

- first reconnect BS 5 to power and let it boot up

- then connect BV 7-40 to power

... and wait 1 min before using your remote

You assume right about the option settings.

I have now tried the following:

- unpluged BV7 and BeoSound 5

- Error code on MX4200 now says ML TD

- Unpluged MasterLink Cable on MX4200

- Error code on MX4200 now says ML CI

- Insert MasterLink cable into MX4200

- Leave MX4200 in stand-by

- Plug in BeoSound 5 and wait til it has booted (stand-by indicator stops flashing)

- Plug in BV7 and wait one minute

- turned on BV7 analouge tv tuner and put it back in stand-by

- Tried v.mem CD Radio on MX4200 - no response - tv still works on local tuner

- Error code on MX4200 now says ML CI

Seems that the boot order did not help

I can supply a secondhand replacement circuit board if this results in a hardware problem you cannot resolve.
