Paul,

I know that auto-contrast is an issue, but todays beovisions 4 have auto calibration features with a sensor which slides down from the beovision 4 frame, so this might be the reason why the auto contrast does not work.

I think there are a few people on this forums, who have PF10s or PF9s with RS232 and latest BS3 software were on/off works.

I am not sure about the th58pf11ek as B&O does not have a 58" inch their own line-up (or so I recall), but the TH50PF11 or the TH65PF10ek will work fine. In that case you just select the Beovision 4 50" or 65" in the BS3 monitor menu.

Use a Panasonic TH50PF11 or the new PF12 that arrives this autumn. It also comes in a 65" version but it's expensive. These are the panels, which B&O uses in their Beovision 4 line. With an RS232 cable from the BS3 to the panny you will get full control over on/off.

I have a Panasonic TH-37PH10UK which lost its ability to be RS232-controlled when BeoSystem 3's SW 4.17 came out. I now have SW 5.?? and I still have to use IR control to turn the screen on and off. Even when RS232 did work, the auto-contract feature didn't work.

Hi Chris

Thanks for reply, The customer would like something now, The issue has been resolved by resetting bs3 to default, the only problem is he now has a slight shimmer on the picture, I did notice in bs3 settings there is an option for 60hz?? I dont want to try this as his samsung is now working. the ones we are looking at are th58f11ek and th65pf10ek, do you know if they will work, and if I need to fit the dvi board?? Thanks in advance for your help

Kai

I think you should also try disconnecting everything from the BS3 and leave it off for 24 hours and then start it up with just the samsung attached and if that works plug one more thing in ... and one more, etc. Potentially you could take the BS3 back to your shop and connect it to a "real" B&O panel and see if behaves well.

Was the security pincode entered correctly when the power was restored?

I have a customer who has a beosystem 3, and a 63" samsung, the problem is the electrician switched of the power, after the the power was switched back on, the beosystem 3 is now switching it's self of every five minutes, the other thing I noticed is there there seems to be a slight shimmer to the picture, I presume this is because the tv is not compatable with the beosystem 3, thanfully the customer is understanding, my question if I where to use a Panasonic monitor panel, which one is the best one to use, and would give me complete control with the beo4, (exteral sensor fitted)
