      I have at least some of the pics still, I can dig them up tomorrow if the archived thread doesn’t return. I did get sound back for a while with a new speaker wire, but it didn’t last long (mechanical stress due to the movement with the alarm button) and I haven’t bothered to re-do the whole thing again.

      I probably have the same problem; no more sound.

      Seems really not easy to open it…

      And need to find an improvement for this cable stress…

              Other possibility use a Global Cache interface

                  It’s not entirely clear to me.
                  Is the BS9000 data pin functional or not?

                      Joke aside, one thing we haven’t discussed about the use of the 1611 in this thread is how it could be used with a Beosound with Masterlink. It would probably give an extra aux input with a video command. But could it also give an extra sound input, or will the Beosound just open it’s integrated aux input regardless of audio command that is not integrated for example N.music?

                      Yes that would be a useful experiment, especially for one of the many BeoSounds with only one AUX socket (eg Ouverture), or with no datalink (eg BS9000 or BS3000/3200).

                      BS9000 has no datalink on the aux connector. But the powerlink connector has data (DL86?) on pin 6.

                      What do you think ?

                        Hi Matador,

                        Bravo, joli travail !

                        What would a wooden BL 3500 look like. Handsome or ugly ???

                          I had a similar thought. I considered suggesting adding solder jumpers and some pads to attached wires (or a connector) to the UART signal traces. Without more detail of the design, it is hard to know if suggestions like this make sense or not.

                          What exactly you’d like to connect there? Right now the RX/TX pins from the ML transceiver circuit are directly connected to the FTDI USB-serial chip. By soldering / removing a few resistors they can also be routed to the 40-way pinsocket. For Raspberry Pis there is a library for bit-banging such things on the GPIOs. Haven’t tried it but they promise it works up to 19200 baud (exactly the ML speed) with zero errors.

                           

                          I would like to inject commands, and extract commands on the ML from an my HA system using rs232.

                            is it possible to control it directly by serial Rs232 (with/without a level converter) ?

                            No, that won’t work unfortunately. It’s a half-duplex symmetrical bus working at very low voltages (+/- 0.25V). It is a bit similar to RS422 but won’t work with such transceiver chips due to the low voltages. Also you have to provide power to the data pins as well as to the ML detect pin. So quite a circuit required and anything else than straight forward.

                            I misspoke ! Controlling the ML USB adapter by direct by UART instead of USB !

                             

                            Is there any “waiting list”  for this device and/or ML to RJ45  adapter ?

                            Thanks

                                I am also very interested.

                                is it possible to control it directly by serial Rs232 (with/without a level converter) ?

                                 

                                Thank you for your excellent work !

                                  Thanks Guy,

                                  With a new cable it works ! But the sound is coming only when an Video source is selected.

                                  No sound with radio or AAUX or ATAPE2 or …

                                   

                                  PS Yes I was on the old forum. I’m back!!! Thanks
