Network Link setup
ISP router
The ISP (Internet Service Provider) router gives the BeoLink Gateway access to the Internet and is used as
router for computers on the local LAN.
Router and switch
As most ISP routers have a stable connection to the Internet and to products connected on the LAN it is sufficient
to build a Network Link setup based on the ISP router. As more LAN connections are needed a switch can be
applied.
-Switch
The switch is connected to a LAN port on the ISP router. Five LAN ports on the switch are used for
connecting two BeoPlay V1, a Beovison 11, a BeoLink Gateway and a Home Automation System.
This basic Network setup has the advantage, that it is easy to configure to be able to access the BeoLink
Gateway and the Home Automation System from an iPad with the BeoLink App.
- Network Link router.
A dedicated Network Link router (B&O recommended) can be added if a separate sub-network is needed,
due to varying quality of the ISP router, when it comes to a stable connection and distribution between
products in the B&O setup.
BeoPlay V1 and BeoVison 11
The two BeoPlay V1 and BeoVison 11 are connected to the switch via CAT7 cables connected to the
Ethernet sockets on the TV’s and ports on the switch.
BeoVision 11 and both BeoPlay V1 are in option 2.
- Rerouting
The re-routing of light and controls commands to the BeoLink Gateway must be enabled in the TVs.
The re-routing should be enabled in the ‘Customer Service Menu’ [Settings/Reroute Light/Control].
- ‘Reroute Light/Control’ must be set to ‘BLGW’, when a BeoLink Gateway is connected on the Network
Link system. Enabling ‘Reroute Light/Control’ allows light and control commands - from Beo4, Beo6,
BeoRemote One and the BeoLink App - to be rerouted to the BeoLink Gateway.
Home Automation System
The Home Automation System is, for the communication with the BeoLink Gateway, connected to a port on the
switch with a CAT7 cable.
BeoLink Gateway
The BeoLink Gateway is connected to the switch with a CAT7 cable from the Network Link socket to a port on the
switch.
The ‘EVENTS’ from the products on the Network Link and ‘EVENTS’ from the Home Automation System are
‘mapped’ (listed) in macros in the BeoLink Gateway. The BeoLink Gateway ‘COMMANDS’ are also ‘mapped’.
When a macro is triggered by an ‘EVENT’ the BeoLink Gateway transfers the associated ‘COMMANDS’ via the
