Connecting Components
The C2800 has the ability to automatically switch power On/Off to Source Components via the Power
Control connections. The Data Port Connections allow for the remote operation of basic functions using
the C2800 Remote Control HR085. With an external sensor connected to the C2800, remote control
operation of the system is possible from another room and/or when the C2800 is located in a cabinet with
the doors closed.
