BEFORE YOU START…

Setting-up guide

This guide describes how to install
your BeoLink Active kit in a Beo­Link distribution system.

If you have never carried out
cable installation before, we
suggest you leave it to your
Bang & Olufsen dealer.
Likewise, we recommend that
you follow the instructions in
this guide carefully.

The User’s guide which is also
supplied with the BeoLink
Active kit describes how to
operate your system once it has
been installed.

BeoLink system

The BeoLink distribution system
enables you to control your
central system and to hear it in
the local room. Your local room
must be connected to the
central room via a special
(BeoLink) cable. To join the
BeoLink cable from the central
system and the cable from the
BeoLink Active box you will
need a BeoLink junction box.
These accessories can be
purchased at your Bang &
Olufsen dealer.

The central room is the room in
which you have placed your audio
system and/or video system (the
central system). The local room
is where you are about to set up
the Beolink Active with a pair of
active speakers.

When you set up your BeoLink
Active kit, we recommend the
following sequence:
1 Switch off all products and

disconnect them from the

mains.
2 Make your installation.
3 Connect all products to the

mains.
4 Carry out the preprogramming.
