BeoLink products
BeoLink products have no xed address. Therefore, it is
necessary to manually assign an address in the column
MLN (Master Link Node) according to a room number.
Once you nish addressing each product, you need to
associate that address with the actual products.

This procedure is called product assignment. It is recommended to use continuous numbers starting with 1 (this will simplify the product
assignment process).
! AudioMasters in option 0 should not be included in the list because they are controlled through the VideoMaster.
The purpose of the table under the BeoLink products section is to dene which product each room has, and what MLN (Master Link Node) each
product is dedicated. If BeoLink products are added or replaced, the procedure must be repeated so ML Gateway can identify the new products.
The assignment af the products can be made in two ways: All product assignment or Assign single product.
All products assignment:
- Navigate to Programming -> Devices -> Beolink products
- Click the All product assignment... button (a new window with a survey of link rooms and products appears (example).
- Click the Start product assignment button.
Wait approximately 1-5 minutes for MLGateway to be ready for product assignment.
When the text ‘Please wait‘ changes to ‘0 product activations so far’, the MLGateway
is ready (the front panel indicator will ash red rapidly).
- Activate the product, by selecting a source, to switch on the product. Remember:
! Main products can be activated by selecting any source.
! Link products must be activated by selecting a source from the main room
(do not use local sources).
! Allow at least 20 seconds and no more than 5 minutes between product activation.
In setups that includes a BeoSystem 3, all tasks performed by external equipment (such as projector lifting, automated doors etc.) must be nalized
before proceeding.
Product marked to be skipped must be activated in order to get to the correct MLN values assigned.
