SILVER MemberHi all,
I’m experimenting with Masterlink setups at the moment. Currently:
BM6500 > Beolink Converter 1611 > Beolink Passive+ round IR eye > Beovox 3000s
Everything seems to work as it should except that when I quickly press the Play button on the IR eye, or the . button on a Beolink 1000 or Beo 4, the whole system goes into standby rather than just muting the Passive. If I connect a Beolab 2000, the standby button or remote just mutes the BL2000 as it should, rather than turning the whole system off. Any ideas? Passive is in Option 6.

GOLD MemberThis does sound weird. according to the user manual this should only happen when you do a long press:
Only other place I have found mention of shut-in the whole system of with a single press is in and older manual for the MCL system where you could make a solder connection inside it to get that behaviour. I have not seen mention of this for the ML system components.Have you tried to power up the devices in different order to see if that affects the behaviour? Or do you maybe have an other IR eye you could try with?Location: Denmark
