Data Ports

Data Ports Connections between the C1100 and a
McIntosh Source Component allow for basic function
control of the source component using the C1100 sup-
plied Remote Control. By default, all eight Data Ports
are sent the same Data for the selected source. To
dedicate a Data Port for only one source component
(BAL 1 Input will be assigned to Data Port 1) perform
the following Steps:
1. Press the SETUP Push-button to enter the SETUP
MODE. Refer to figure 2, on page 18.
2. Rotate the TRIM Control until "SETUP: Data Port
1, All Data" appears on the Information Display.
Refer to figure 36.

Passthru
When the C1100 is part of a Home Theater or Multi-
channel Audio System the Right and Left Front Chan-
nels from an Audio/Video Processor or Surround De-
coder can "Passthru" the C1100 and onto its associated
Power Amplifier(s). The Setup Mode allows selection
of the specified C1100 Input to be used for the Right
and Left Front Channels. In the example below, the
Right and Left Front Channels from the Audio/Video
Processsor will be connected to the BALanced 6 Input
Connectors on the C1100. Refer to pages 8 and 9 for
additional connection information.
Notes: 1. The Phono Inputs are not assignable as a
Passthru Input.
2. If Balanced Input 6 is already assigned to a
given Input, it will not appear in the list of
available Inputs.
3. When one of the Unbalanced Inputs is selected
as a Passthru Input, it is advisable to remove it
from the Input List by switching it Off. Refer to
"Input Settings" on page 18.
1. Press the SETUP Push-button to enter the SETUP
MODE. Refer to figure 2, on page 18.
2. Rotate the TRIM Control until "SETUP: Passthru,
Off" appears on the Information Display. Refer to
figure 39.

The speed at which the C1100 communicates (8 bit, no
parity and 1 stop bit) with other equipment is adjust-
able from 9,600 bits per second to 115,200 bits per
second. To change from the default speed of 115,200
bits per second, perform the following steps:
1. Press the SETUP Push-button to enter the SETUP
MODE. Refer to figure 2, on page 18.
2. Rotate the TRIM Control until "SETUP: RS232,
115200 Baud" appears on the Information Dis-
play. Refer to figure 41.
