One of my Beolab 3500 is showing A-TAPE2 instead of N-MUSIC

Which part number is the PCB Board? I could not find anythink with searching the forum.

Thank's for quick help

Carlo

version 2.1 changed the display names to n.music/n.radio

Can someone (Keith saunders perhaps) check this part number please. If it is the case, then his guide should be updated. 

Btw cost for the 8006009 is now apx £43 inc vat. 

You may wish to look at the FAQ HERE

The latest version of Beolab 3500 software is 3.33

When you upgrade a Beolab 3500 Mark 1 to version 2.1 as defined in the FAQ it changes the display as follows:-

A.TAPE      -> A.MEM
A.TAPE2    -> N.MUSIC
V.TAPE      -> V.MEM
V.TAPE2    -> DVD2
CDV          -> DVD
PHONO     -> N.RADIO
SAT           -> DTV

The part number for updating the software by replacing the micro processor PCB36 to 2.1 is 8006009

You could update your Beolab 3500 to version 3.33 by using part number 8002944 but would provide no benefit unless your unit was a Mark II version and you plan to use wireless.

Updates after 2.1 to 3.33 provide Master Link Gateway compatible and A.AUX command is now possible. Version 3.1 provided wireless compatibility.

Thank you for your reply and explanation Keith.

The short answer is NO

The Beolab 5000 are powerlink speakers and the Beolab 3500 is a link room speaker meaning it uses a Masterlink connection.

Greetings all, so just to clarify.  Notice Louis mentioned you can update your earlier BL3500 as long as it has ML.

Then Keith mentioned that you can update your BL3500 to SW3.33 but would provide no bebfit unliess your unit was a Mk2 version and you plan to use wireless.  Did you say an Mk2 version because of the ML socket or is there more to it then that?

Seeing that I have a older BL3500 yet it has both MCL and ML sockets would I get the full benefit of going to SW3.1 or 3.33?
