How to Operate the MC1201
How to Operate the MC1201
Power On
To have the MC1201 automatically turn On or Off when a
control center turns on or off,
rotate the power switch to the
remote position. For manual op-
eration, rotate the power switch
to the On or Off position as de-
sired. Refer to figure 8.
Note: There must be a power
control connection
between the MC1201 and
the McIntosh Control
Center, in order for the remote power turn-on to
function.
Meter Selection
Rotate the meter mode switch to select the meter operation
mode you desire. Refer to figures 9 and 10.
Lights Off - Meter lights are
turned off and the
meter will con-
tinue to indicate
the power output.
Watts- The meters re-
spond to all the
musical informa-
tion being pro-
duced by the am-
plifier. They indicate to an accuracy of at least
95% of the power output with only a single
cycle of a 2000Hz tone burst.
Hold - The meter pointer is locked to the highest
power peak in a sequence of peaks. It is elec-
tronically held to this power level until a
higher power peak passes through the ampli-
fier. The meter pointer will then rise to the
newer higher indication. If no further power
peaks are reached, the meter pointer will very
slowly return to its rest position or lower
power level. The decay rate is approximately
6dB per minute.
Note: The MC1201 Power Output Meter
indicates the actual wattage delivered to
the loudspeakers by responding to the
combination of current and voltage
output.
Input Mode Switch
The Input Mode Switch, which is located on the Rear
Panel of the MC1201, allows
you to select either the Bal-
anced or Unbalanced Input. Re-
fer to figure 11.
