Hello everybody,
I've just registered, as I have a question that I can't find an answer for. I hope you can forgive me for my lack of knokledge about the B&O system and terminology. Hence the reason I chose this sub-forum.
I have some ceiling speakers split in 3 zones (each zone with one IR Eyelet), which were controlled by a BeoSound 3000 (or a similar model with Masterlink and CD), but that one move a floor further downstairs.
So I got myself a 1611 adapter, which is working fine with being supplied by a Wiim streamer.
Now to my problem:
I can turn on the zones with both a Beolink 1000 remote or directly on the IR Eyelet (top to bottom: Timer / Vol. up / Vol. down / Play), but every time I have to press 'TV' on the remote to hear the music been streamed.
Is there a way to set the Eyelets to remember the correct channel, so I don't need to use the remote every time I hit 'Play' on an Eyelet?
Thank you to our Sponsors

The link room IR eye buttons will default to Radio if nothing is already playing.
Since you use the 1611 converter there is no real source, but the 1611 can select between a Video or an Audio input on the AAL connector. Wheether it is an audio or a video input is defined by how your cable between the streamer and the 1611 is wired. See this for a sketch with the two inputs and how they are wired

My cinch to Aux cable is connected like this (attached photo), which looks like it's connected as TV input.
That adapter looks like a solution, I'll have a look if it's available in Germany (or EU).
Yes, ordered one an hour ago on ebay, ~7€ including shipping.
I'll post an update after I've tested it.
Hi Madskp,
the adapter cable arrived today and it works like you said. I just had to use the black and yellow connector. The sound starts by only pressing "Play" on the IR eyelet.
Thanks again for the competent support, much appreciated.
Good to hear it worked out succesfull 😀
As an added bonus you can use the 2 other connectors for an extra source (computer, phone, MP3 player, Record player etc.) that can be activated with the TV command if needed
