Hi there I used my eye from my Bellini passive as an external IR on my BV7/BS3 just needed a different wire configuration.

Seanie,

 

Thanks for your fast reply. How it looks the wire configuration? IR in in the BeoSystem looks like a serial port!!!!

Well from how i understand it the eye is the same device but is wired differently for difference applications. (correct me if im wrong)

The BV7 beosystem 3's connection is a headphone jack as it only uses IR no contrast stuff is needed. When used with the Beolink passive I had a din connection to the same IR i assume for use with the buttons and IR.

 

I am not sure about the beosystem 3 it might be a different IR, A dealer should be able to get you the correct cable and confirm if you have the right IR.

 

You are absolutelly right. I need in fact only the Jack connection. I received today my Beosystem 3. I have to contact the dealer in order to have the PIN code. I bought it at an Police auction for a very very very good price!

 

I wonder if anybody tried this connection on his Beosystem///

I can confirm that you can use a Beolink Eye and modify the connections as described here:

Dealer quoted me 260$ for the original IR Eye. Now I have 260$ more in my pockets!
