    BV7 MK3 External IR

    Heeeeelp Please

    Hello All

    I have the BV7 MK3 and there is a small jack plug connector for an external IR but my dealer cannot find it, does anyone know what the part number is? I have the IR sensor but need to correct cable.

    I know that when i used it with a beolink passive the cable is a din plug to IR and speaking to my dealer the one for the BS3 is a VGA connection to IR as it contains the contrast sensor.

    when my screen drops it comes down in front of my TV and it blocks the IR, i noticed there is a socket for a external IR.

    Can anyone help with more info

    Page 38 of the reference book. Describes exactly your situation - looks like a standard IR eye as used on the Beoport.

    You are right, Peter. I have it connected to my Beoport and it works fine.

    Seanie, bear in mind this is NOT as the one used with the Beolink Passive. The one you need doesn't have buttons to press, no Timer and Play painted on the surface.

    Re: BV7 MK3 External IR

    hi there

    i have just been looking thought my ref book and page 38 is not showing me anything about the external IR????

    I did try the PUC lead in case that worked but nope.

    I already have a IR but no cable as i have the lead for connecting it to a passive.

    I cannot find the IR info in my reference book

     

    Thanks

    p.s page 37 is blank?

    Do you read the answers when you ask a question?

    You can use what you have - look at the wiring diagram Quim43 has provided. Personally, I would simply get a pre-wired one - you don't, as has ben pointed out, need the buttons and it will be simpler.
