If this is already set to option 6 after adding the new master will I need to re-option it? Thanks for the help

No.

Raeuber:

No, if you add a Beovision via masterlink in another room, this BV has to be set to V.OPT = 6.

Sorry - not quite correct. If your BV is the main TV, the videomaster, set V.OPT to "2", no matter in which room it is installed. V.OPT 6 is a slave mode for link TVs.

Assuming you have a BV7-40 MKII, which Pentas do you have - MK III? Did you set the mode switch to video?

Are the Pentas registered in the BV7 Speaker menu? Do you use fully wired Powerlink cables? As far as I remember, BL Penta need these PL cables.

So your Pentas have no Powerlink. Do you use Speakerlink or Line in?

Are the mode switches set correctly?

If I remember correctly the Pentas sould turn automatically after a certain time when signal disappeared.

Sorry, Steffan, a little bit misunderstanding. Of course:

- BV in mainroom (videomaster): V.OPT = 2

- BV in linkroom: V.OPT = 6

I can only describe it with my german BV 7-40 3D as follows:

 

 

Press MENU (twice) on Beo4

 

 

OPTIONEN

 

 

TON

 

 

GRUNDEINSTELLUNGEN

 

 

LS FOR VIDEO (set to 3)

 

 

Thank you, so much i managed to work it out in the english menu from what you have put  Thank you for sticking with it
