Hi Adrian, and welcome to Beoworld. You need to connect the ML/MCL Converter to your Beosound via Powerlink. Also think you need a MK2 Powerlink cable. Sometimes called fully wired.

Craig🙂

Craig is correct - see also picture in attachment.

There may be a "plop" in the speakers while switching on (no speaker delay)

Sorry, forgot to mention that I tried it with powerlink as well, to no avail (not fully wired however). 

Your answers give rise to a couple of questions:

1, what's the masterlink socket for?

2,where did you get the attachment picture from?

Adrian

Adrain, the Masterlink socket has two purposes. Firstly if it is been used as a Beolink Passive. In connection with the remote eye. Secondly if you had an existing MCL based multiroom setup. Then decided to replace your Audio Master with a Masterlink one. You would connect to the converter to Audio Master via Masterlink. Then the MCL connection would go it the speaker connections of the converter. As for the diagram we have user and service manuals available to download. You will need to be either a Silver or Gold member to be able to do this.

1. Masterlink is used for converting the ML signalling from a ML based system (like BS3200) to an existing MCL-setup. It powers the passive speakers in the link rooms in a MCL network.

Assuming you are not connecting to an existing MCL network, you need fully mounted powerlink and a link eye to trigger the amplifier.

You either use Mk2 fully wired powerlink OR Masterlink and a link eye.

Duh.  My apologies.  Complete brain cramp, or lack thereof.
