Keith Saunders:
The Service Manual for the Mark I version is the same as the LCS9000

LCS9000 Service Manual now available for download.

This manual can also be used for Beolab 3500 prior to serial number 19343452 which were Beolab 3500 Mark I which would also have software versions up to 2.1

The Service Manual for the Mark I version is the same as the LCS9000.

I will add the LCS9000 manual to the Beoworld on-line library later today once I have found my copy.

This sounds exciting and perhaps a step beyond MADSYSTEMES' efforts with regards to the eye (I had considered a similar mod).

Will you be launching a "kit" for customer install?

I thank you for this explanation.
I do congratulate you and your electrical engineer.
would be possible to have an exact explanation of this change for the users of this forum?
I think many would be happy.
I wish you a wonderful 2012

Bear in mind I am not the electronics engineer of our company,

Keith is quite right that the BeoLab 3500 works exactly as he described above.

Martyn our engineer has re-designed a circuit board to enable any BeoLab 3500 to work in the same way as any normal PowerLink speaker, regardless of version or software and without the need for beolink wireless.

It gives further flexibility to this speaker allowing it to be utilized in many more different scenarios. For example think of it as a pair of BeoLab 6000s with many more placement options, or as a 7.1 centre speaker connected just via PowerLink, an addition in the new year will be an IR Socket so that if used with a BeoVision 4 & BeoSystem 2 there would be no need for a separate external IR Eye.

The MasterLink socket is unaffected by this upgrade.

The only thing to note is that the MasterLink and PowerLink sockets on the BeoLab 3500 cannot be used at the same time, but then I cant think of a scenario when this would be necessary.

Hope this helps

The Beolab 3500 with an 8 pin Powerlink socket is a Mark II version and was released to allow it to be used with the Beolink Wireless 1.

With software version 3.33 the Masterlink functionality remains as it has always worked. The software updates allow the Powerlink to work correctly with the Beolink Wireless 1 and is not intended to be used in any other way.
