Custom Installation Options Infrared Remote (IR) Installation
The DV-983H features an IR IN and IR OUT ports on its back panel. If the DVD player is to be installed in an
equipment cabinet where direct line-of-sight is not available for remote control, your custom home theater
installer can purchase an External IR Remote Sensor (OPPO part number IR-ES1) and plug it into the IR IN
port. Place the sensor head at a location where there is direct line-of-sight to ensure reliable operation. The
External IR Remote Sensor is available from your dealer or directly from OPPO Digital, Inc.
If you have another OPPO device that features an IR IN port, the IR OUT port on the DV-983H can pass
through remote control signal to the next OPPO device. For example, if you use an OPPO HM-31 Advanced
3x1 HDMI Switch to expand the HDMI inputs on your TV, the IR IN port of the HM-31 can be connected to the
IR OUT port of the DV-983H using a 3.5mm stereo cable.

NOTE
• OPPO cannot guarantee that the IR IN and IR OUT ports will be compatible with
devices that are not manufactured by OPPO.
• Connecting the IR IN or IR OUT port to an incompatible device may result damage to
the connected device or the DVD player.
• Please contact OPPO customer support if you plan to integrate the DVD player into an
IR distribution system. Customer support can provide recommendations on how to
properly connect the control signal.
RS232 Control
If your home theater system has an integrated control system, please ask your custom installer to contact
OPPO for the RS-232C control protocol. The DV-983H has an RS-232C control port and can be integrated
into most custom home theater control systems.
