Beovision 7 floor stand with non-BO TV -- possible?

27 replies

Thanks for this info Peter Pan.
the stand for the BV 7-40 also has a tilt function in addition to rotating, how is it differentiated whether I want to turn or tilt the TV?

Hi Frankenberg

I might be at lot easier if you specify EXACTLY what you want to achieve. TV, remote, type of stand etc... Then I might be able to help you.

@ BEOVOX141

the thread heading actually says what I want exactly:

operate a motorized stand from a BV7 with a BEO4, without Beovision 7 TV.

@PeterPan

thanks for the BEO4 instructions for operating the tilt function on the BV 7-40.

Judging by the pin assignment of the stand, the movements of the stand are controlled with voltage values

between 0 and 5 volts, how does the stand recognize whether it should make a rotary movement or a tilt movement

(which voltage value triggers which movement?)

That would of course involve some sort of external IR receiver? Unless you want the TVto be controlled by the Beo 4 as well?

Just making sure I have the right specifications 🙂

Yes, it would be great if the new TV (for example a LG) can also be controlled with

the same remote control (BEO4) as the stand.

I had already considered a LinTronic box to do this, only the motor control is missing.

It will be more intelligent than that. f you turn the stand by hand, then dot in the "stand"menu follows. So, there's more interaction between the stand and tv in terms of data.

 

Will log later this week.

Quite a challenge to achieve "Less is More" while having the Beovirus.

While beovox141 continues to work on the task, here is a bit to look at.


@PeterPan

thank you for the illustrated inspiration,

your thread: interface - tips & tricks, inspired me to create this thread.

I had to use my google translator again and again, but I got some helpful information!


@Beobuddy

I had never tried this information before.

Then the connection between the stand and the BV7 is probably a CAN-bus with a fixed protocol

and constant exchange of information.
