Re: Beolink Converter 1611 Question

It's for the control of the volume if your Beomaster is in option 0 and the video in option 2.

Pin 4 (speaker on) and pin 7 (datalink) of the Powerlink are used.

It will switch on the speakers when you switch on your Beomaster with a button on the Beomaster and not with the remote.

And you will be able to control the volume and mute the speakers if your beomaster has a volume control and/or a mute button

Option 0 means that the component will not respond to infrared commands,
doesn't mean audio is cut out.

The question remains about the function of the powerlink input (converter)

As the audio master is in option 0 - then it will not put any sound on the powerlink ????

??????

The Pwerlink socket on the converter is an input and is ONLY used/necessary if no speakers are to be connected to the audio system.

So, in such a situation the Powerlink on the audio system is connected to the Powerlink socket on the converter

A Powerlink-cable is used when there are no speakers connected the the Audiomaster.

Hmmn ???

It is a bit strange!

The Powerlink on the Converter is a input to be connected to Powerlink (out) from an audio system (in Option 0) ?

Wonder what it is doing ???

Anybody with a diagram ?

The Beolink Converter Type 1611 has

A) in one end a Masterlink socket

B) in the other a datalink socket (7 pin) and a powerlink socket (8 pin)

Does anybody know what the Powerlink socket is for ?????

Many Thanks
