Remote Control Selection

There are two choices for the Remote Control Codes the
C2200 will respond to. The Remote Control included with
the C2200 utilizes the NORMal McIntosh Control Codes.
The Second Set of Control Codes the C2200 will respond to
is referred to as the ALTernate Codes. The ALTernate Codes
are for when the C2200 is used together with a McIntosh
Multichannel Processor/Decoder in the Pass Thru Mode
