It's the same converter, you configure it (choosing between bs5000/bc7700/bm8000/bm6000) by adjusting some jumpers inside the unit.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Beosystem 5000</title><link>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/57669.aspx</link><pubDate>Tue, 23 Oct 2007 16:07:52 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:57669</guid><dc:creator>Craig</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/57669.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&amp;PostID=57669</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;Thats the one Andy, I think it works on most systems that had a non BL1000 remote.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Craig&lt;img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/01.gif" alt="Smile" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Beosystem 5000</title><link>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/57666.aspx</link><pubDate>Tue, 23 Oct 2007 16:04:07 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:57666</guid><dc:creator>Jandyt</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/57666.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&amp;PostID=57666</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;Craig, the one Peter bought to Manchester for us to &amp;#39;guess&amp;#39; was for controlling the BM8000 I think.

Yes, that's correct - you connect the ir converter to the mcl connections when used with a bs5000 or a bc7700/7007. When used with a bm6000/8000, an ir blaster is used. I guess it's only one-way. I actually bid on an auction for an IR converter a couple of weeks ago. The seller obviously thought it was a normal link kit (mcl2a), so it went quite cheap. Unfortunately I forgot to place a bid.
