Hi

Looking for some advice,we are going to be doing an install of some bang & oulufsen equipment most of it is straight forward, it is the main room, where the cust will have a beovision 7-40 mk3, they have a projection screen already installed, which has it's own remote plus it also has rs232, they also have a projector Epson TW440 or the TW5500, will these work ok with the beovision 7-40 mk 3, would appreciate any help

yes it should be fine, you will have to manually turn on the projector or program direct control off the beo5 or use a lintronic box.

 

 

I recommend a Lintronic - 238 box for cinema control. The box can be triggered by the cinema control outputs of the BV7-40 and can control the projector and the motor screen by IR or RS 232.

My setup even controls light and blinds. Works great.

Thanks for that, if the rs232 from the projector then goes into the screen then to bvis 7 would that trigger, the screen to come down and the projector to switch on, or would I need to use the linntronic box??

No. BV7 just delivers a close/open contact. This contact - there are two actually - trigger the Lintronic box, and the box will control all your cinema devices via a macro incl. the popcorn machine. See the Lintronic instuction manual.
