Setup, con’t
The C2500 may be remotely controlled from other
equipment connected to the Rear Panel RS232C con-
nector. The speed at which the C2500 communicates
(8 bit, no parity and 1 stop bit) with other equipment
is adjustable 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 and hold the TONE BYPASS/SETUP Push-
button until the Setup Mode is active. Then press
the OUTPUT 2 / MENU ► Push-button until the
Setup Menu item “SETUP: COMM PORT BAUD

play. Refer to figure 33.
2. Rotate the VOLUME/ADJUST Control to select
the desired speed.
3. Press the TONE BYPASS/SETUP Push-button to
exit the Setup Mode.
Remote Control Codes
The Remote Control included with the C2500 utilizes
the NORMal McIntosh Control Codes. The Second
Set of Control Codes the C2500 will respond to is
referred to as the ALTernate Codes. The ALTernate
Codes are used when the C2500 is used in the same
location as another McIntosh Preamplifier and/or A/V
Control Center. This will prevent the Remote Con-
trol from affecting the operation of both units at the
same time. To activate the Remote Control ALTernate
Codes perform the following steps:
1. Press and hold the TONE BYPASS/SETUP Push-
button until the Setup Mode is active. Then press
the OUTPUT 2 / MENU ► Push-button until the
Setup Menu item “SETUP: REMOTE, CODES:
NORM” appears on the Front Panel Display.
Refer to figure 34.
2. Rotate the VOLUME/ADJUST Control until
“CODES: ALT” appears on the Front Panel Dis-
play. Refer to figure 35.
3. Press the EQ BYPASS/SETUP Push-button to
exit the Setup Mode.

ternate Codes perform the following steps:
A. Press the “Mc” Push-button.

button flashes twice.
