Hi 

I would like to connect a Beosystem 3500 to my Beovision 11. I know how to link products via Masterlink but the 3500 doesn't have masterlink so now I am rather clueless. 

If anyone can let me know how to do this.

Thanks so much

Ben

Hi there

I guess you'll need a Beolink Converter - like this one.

https://www.beoworld.org/manuals_view.asp?pid=983

-as a Silver member you can download the manual.

Then you'll offcourse need to find a converter Wink Try ebay or other sites for used electronics - or maybe some friendly Beoworld members have one for sale.

I have 3 of those converters actually so thats good news except I still don't understand how one would set it up. 

If neither the Beosystem or Beovision have a masterlink socket how would you connect everything together?

You’ll need two (different) converters for that setup.

Here is a drawing of the physical setup - settings of the NL/MM Converter are a different subject:

 

There is a tv - and there is a BV

Ah ok. I don't have an NL/ML converter. I shall have to look for one. 

Thanks MM for the info.

Doesn't the Beovision 11 have a Masterlink socket? (I thought so - but I "only" have a BV 10)
- then I don't know...

(edit: I can see that Millemissen has the answer) Smile

Hi Steffan

No masterlink on the BV11 unfortunately.

Does anyone know if it makes a difference whether the BS3500/BS4500 is set to the TAPE 2, CD, or PHONO option? It seems that it might make a difference on how the aux port functions. I've always found the section of the BS4500 manual regarding this to be unclear.

This might be a very dumb question but I am going to ask anyway! Can a Masterlink Gateway (the black box one) be used to do the connection between the BS3500 and the BV11? I have a brand new one in a box which I never used, partially because I have no idea how to use it. 

 

Thanks
