Dear Forum,
found this a while ago and now in the process of setting it up.I know, today there are spotify and deezer, but could not resist buying this just to test it.Not sure if I will use it a lot, but hey, time will tell.
A software call NSMlink can control the NSM 3101 AC with a serial cable using windows.
But the goal is to use a Beo 4 remote control with the system - it is possible using the right accessories (sensor missing).
I called Mr. Steinborn today, very kind guy! He used to work for B&O as a developer and founded his company back in 1984 (if I remember well). Now his company is specialised in home automation (KNX).
He will look if there is still a sensor with western plug and powerlink connection in his spare part section...See this for details:
Even though worldwide sales were around 50.000 units, I have never seen one - at least not with the B&O black box.
Will update this thread if I can move on with the integration.

Hello Ralf,I'm curious... can you give names to the CDs with the software or only numbers?Please let us know how it all works out... :-)
Only numbers via this software. The software was not from B&O.I heard there was a Version of the B&O sollution with a display, too...
Any news on this topic?
Forgot to close this thread...
After lots of mails, telephone calls etc the Steinborn guys did not even sent back the IR eye + module that they wanted me to send in to update it (first version they updated did not work). Worst customer experience in my life. I sold the NSM stand-alone for the price I paid for it with the B&O stuff, so at least no money lost - but beware if you ever stumble over these...
I have started communication with them in October 2015 and gave up end of 2016.
Still wanting to meet them in person once I am in Bremen...
