outputs on the LEFT FRONT, and RIGHT FRONT
channels.
AC POWER CONTROL
Separate AC relays and outlets are provided for
accessories, area A power amplifier and area B power
amplifier.
POWER CONTROL OUTPUT
The POWER CONTROL jack provides a logic signal
for power ON/OFF control of the MC7106 SIX CHANNEL
THX POWER AMP and other Mclntosh high power
amplifiers.
AUTO MUTING
The outputs are muted for 2 seconds during power
up to prevent hearing annoying clicks and pops
generated by other equipment.
REMOTE POWER ON AND MUTE INDICATION
On each keypad and remote sensor there, is an LED
that lights when that area is POWERED and blinks on
and off when the area is MUTED.

other devices in the home. With the use of the HC1
HOME CONTROL MODULE one has 6 circuit closures
that are programmable for PUSH ON, PUSH OFF, or
MOMENTARY (push and hold) type of operation; three
circuit closures for PUSH ON, PUSH OFF only and 4
sequenced closures or openings operated from a single
button. Also included in the HC1 is a 12VDC power
supply capable of delivering 1.5. amperes to these
contacts for operation of external relays etc.
DOUBLE SHIELDED POWER TRANSFORMER
