Will a Naim R-Com operate an ATC SCA2 preamp? Anyone know if the codes are compatible?

Does the ATC use the Philips RC5 remote codec?  If so, then the R-com or Narcom may well control some or all functions.  However, as RC5 has so many different codes and channels then you would have to try it out to be sure.

Thanks for your help Richard.

Yes it does seem to be RC5. So the R-Com is RC5 too? I'll get it tested and try to remember to report back!

Yes, Naim use RC5 for their remote control system.

Problem solved, I think. Cheers, Richard.

Even if the R-Com doesn't work, a Logitech Harmony can be programmed to control both Naim and ATC equipment.

Yup, I just like the ATC and Naim remotes!

Good news.  So I take it the R-com works with the ATC?
