Take a look at Beoworld's technical micro-site, and on this page at the bottom you will see the wiring for a 7 pin DIN plug for a Datalink connection between a BeoMaster and its sources e.g. a BeoGram:

I checked the background of the BeoGram 1700 on Beocentral

http://www.beocentral.com/products/bg1700

and while it was not specific about whether the BG1700 supported Datalink it did say that its successor was the BG1800 and about which it says:

There was no ‘Beosystem 1800’ or ‘Beolab 1800’; this Beogram was designed to work with any Beomaster, old or new. To that end, it was fitted with a 5 pin DIN plug and lacked Datalink, though the electronics existed inside for Datalink use.

So I would say ignore pins 6 and 7 in the diagram which were the data ground and the Datalink pins, and you will have what you want

What are the connection details for a Beogram 1700?

The connector used is a 5 pin plug, and I would like to know what is what.

Thank you
