Hi.

I have a Beovision 4 (Beosystem 3) as a master, connected with at Set Top Box and a V8000.

I am trying to use the STB and video from my link room, where I have a mx4000 connected with a Beolink Video mk II 1615, but I only get “snow” on the mx4000 screen when I press vtape or sat. I have just installed a RF Link amplifier, but that made no difference!

My settings:

Beosystem 3 and mx4000 is connected with master link cable and aerial cable from the RF Link Amplifier.

Beosystem 3 = option 1 (link frq = 599), RF amplifier = off. MX4000 = option 6 (channel 60-64 = frq. 599) My link setup worked perfectly before, with a Beocenter 1 instead of the Beovision 4, any ideas how to get this setup to work ?

Kind regards Karcenty

Check the connections menu on the MX4000. They should be set to none.

Then I would check the ML-cable and the junction box if you got any.

I checked and double checked every cable, I even made a new ML cable, but it make no difference. Maybe it is a hardware error.

What if you bypass the RF amplifier and press v.tape in the link room. Does the Video start?
