Beolink Passive – Powerlink Socket

[Guy]

Looking at the circuit diagram, the answer is no.

There is a permanent 5v at pin 6 of the IR socket, if that’s any use?

Thanks Guy, yes that answers the question – I needed a switched 5V supply.

I suppose I could use a Beolink Active with a powerlink to the Active and a splitter but that wouldn’t save me reducing the number of units in standby.

 

Thanks again.

But the BL Active will not actually produce a 5V output until it is turned on using its own IR input, so I am not sure that would work. Perhaps you could use a 5v trigger from the source audiomaster/videomaster?
