Skip the primary and secundairy connection altogether. All my BLC’s are set primary and secondary to themselve! This will make the operation unnessecary  complex.

But is the BL3500 BLC still set as ASlave? If so, then this is incorrect! ASlave is used if a sole ML device without speakers connected, adds sources to NL. The BLC should be set as AVmaster.

You should be able to play Deezer on the Moment and JOIN a BLC. But how to start Deezer on the BL3500 then? A question to be cracket.

I’ve changed the configuration so that the BLC-BL35 points to itself. This allows it to pull both InTune (via IR commands for RADIO and CD). If I leave the primary and secondary fields empty, it behaves the same way. However, there’s still an issue with getting N.MUSIC (Deezer) – Choosing N.MUSIC just makes a click noise from the speaker and indicates N.MUSIC but stills plays either RADIO (InTune) and if I play CD (from BS9000) and choosing N.MUSIC but no audio.

Just to clearify: with a remote you give the BL3500 the N.Music command? Maybe someone else can clearify is Deezer can be expanded to ML products?

If I understand correctly, adding a primary would make a specific BLC act as a “slave” to another BLC. How should the secondary connection be interpreted? Is it simply meant to allow a BLC to be linked to two specific units it should communicate with? I just want to understand the intended usage of the primary and secondary connections. I’ve browsed the NL Handbook but can’t say that I found anything specific talking about the roles and explaining; or I just missed it.

Primary/secundary –   the sources of the, primary/secondary  linked, NL product are  shared with the linked to product. For example I set the BS7000 BLC as primary linked and the BS3000 BLC as secondaty to my BS Shape. Now the sources of the BS7000 and the BS3000 are local sources of my Shape; see picture.

In principle your Moment should be able to do this also (but with all the sw issues in the past I’m not sure it still does).

No, for now I’ve set the BLC-BL35 as A.Master and what would the different be to set it AV.Master?

Technical speaking because the ML-string on this BLC doesn’t have a A.Master nor a V.Master you want to access ALL NL connected (and made available), thus as well audio as video sources. Then you have to set the BLC as AVMaster.

For now, beside getting certain multi-room effect but not getting the B&O app to play along was a bummer. Just wondering if it ever worked?

It worked fine. But since the latest changes not everything is working as before, but still………..
