As many as six CR12s can be cascaded to supply audio
and video to a maximum of 24 zones. Cascaded CR12s
can also be connected with a McIntosh Control Center,
which adds two additional zones.
1. Connect a DB37 shielded 37 conductor cable from the
To Next Controller socket of the first CR12, to the
Controller Input B of the second CR12. All Audio sig-
nals and the audio portion of A/V sources connected to
the first CR12 will be sent down the cable to each suc-
ceeding CR12 to allow all remote zones to receive au-
dio from all the Audio/Video sources.
2. Connect video cables from the video outputs of the first
CR12 to the video inputs of the second CR12.
3. Repeat the video connections in and out of each CR12.
4. When cascaded CR12 systems are used with a McIn-
tosh Control Center, connect the video outputs of the
last CR12 to the matching video inputs of the control
center
