How to Connect the MR89
The MR89 has the ability to be remotely switched On/
O from a McIntosh Preamplier or A/V Control Center
via the Power Control connection. When powered,
this same connection allows remote control of MR89
meter lighting. The MR89 Data Port Connection allows
for the remote operation of basic functions using the
Preamplier or A/V Control Center Remote Control.
With an appropriate IR Sensor connected to the MR89,
remote control operation is possible from another room
and/or when the MR89 is located in a cabinet with the
doors closed.
