Access OPTIONS on Beomaster 7000

Very hard to decipher the Chat GTP conversation, but before you start paying money to repair your Beomaster 7000 you should consider a few things.

If your setup is actually connected like the sketch in this posthttps://forum.beoworld.org/forums/topic/access-options-on-beomaster-7000/#post-68804 and the Pentas are connected to the TV and only the TV the the Beomaster 7000 has nothing to do with volume control in your main room. The volume for the Pentas are regulated by the device they are connected to, hopefully the TV as advised bye me and other members earlier.

DO NOT CONNECT THE PENTA SPEAKERS TO THE BEOMASTER 7000 IF YOU WANT THIS SETUP TO WORK

Also as far as I iunderstood the devices you had volume troubles with and Apple TV and the PC source, both something connected to the TV. As advised before I would look into the speaker group setup for these connections. Based on what you are telling it sounds like the center speaker on the BV7 might not be in play for dialogue.

The Pentas are connected directly to the two DIN Powerlink on the back of the Beovision, just underthe SCART and MCL. The Beomaster is then comnected via the little black box to the Beovision’s AUX/TV. I get no sound from the radio, and the volume starts at 14, skips to 36 when I turn it up, and then skips back to 14, both on the BM display and on the BV. No sound from the radio. Sorry about the long post, but I wanted someone else to look at it, because it seemed to be a new angle; if capacitors are the problem, I can waste unlimited time following instructions from this panel, and still get no closer to a solution. Any thoughts?

The volume on the panels does not change when I play the Beogram 7000, btw, but no sound emerges there, either.

Your system:

Living: BV7 (Beolab’s connected to the BV7)  – MasterLink connected to a T1611 (the black box) – Powerlink and Datalink (TV-Aux) connected to your BM7000? correct

Beolink room 1: BL3500 Masterlink parallel connected to the BV7? correct?

Beolink room 2: ????? what is connected here and how is it connected?

Please elaborate……

Yes, Beolink room 1 upstairs: BL3500 Masterlink is parallel connected to the BV7 via the T1611.

Downstairs kitchen: Beovox Cona and Beovox CX50 with MCL2A-IR.

Downstairs bedroom: Beolab 4500, with MCL2A-IR.

Those two units are also connected to the T1611 in a splice box.

In the bedroom, I alsop have a light control that does not respond to the remote, but only to touch.

At the moment, I have the loudspeaker DIN-cables connected to the PowerLink sockets on the BV7, and the sound from the BV7 is good. On the right side of the BV7 (seen from behind) there is a block of six DIN sockets. Two of those, the topmost right and the bottom right, are for speakers, but I am not sure how to use those.

Let me just clarify that the Pentas are the only loudspeakers in the living room; there is no center speaker on the BV7.

How are the MCL connected to the T1611?  If you try to connect MCL directly to ML then for sure you will end up in problems.
The T1611 is designed to connect non-ML Audio or Videomasters to a ML Video or Audiomaster. So in your setup to connect a BM7000 (non ML Audiomaster) to the BV7 (ML Videomaster).

To my knowledge your set up should be:

BV7 – ML connected to T1611 – Data en Powerlink connected to your BM7000
BL3500 is parallel ML connected to the BV7
Both MCL2A’s are parallel connected to speaker 2 of your BM7000

I actually had a technician from B&O do the setup. Really expensive, and he had did not connect the speakers to the BV.

The cable from the BL3500 upstairs is spliced with the Masterlink that goes into the T1611. The other end of that Masterlink goes in the BV7.

I was wrong about the other two linkrooms downstairs; the kitchen and bedroom are spliced together and go in the MCL sockets in the Beomaster. So not speaker 2.

I am not sure what you mean by “Data en Powerlink”.

Powerlink: is the connection from Audio or Vidiomasters to send audio signals (left and right in the same cable) with (opptional) communication info to the amplifiers of the active B&o speakers; Beolab (8pin plugs). The way you connected your Penta’s to the BV7.
Datalink: is the connection including communication, between sources such as  CD players, record players, etc and Beomasters/Beosound; but also direct connection between Beomaster/Beosound and Beovision (7pin plugs). The way the Beogram 7000 or Beogram CD 7000 is connected to a Beomaster 7000 for example.

The MCL socket should be the same as the Speaker 2 connections of the Beomaster 7000. Could you indicate were they are connected?

The T1611 is also connected to your BM7000 I presume? How is it connected?

There are no speakers connected to your Beomaster 7000 (just to be sure)?
