System Reset

After changing any of the above configurations, reset the RSM-901 by pressing the RESET switch (SW1). This is essential to allow the new setting to take effect.

Source Component Set-up

After installation, refer to System Set-up and Programming (page

21)for configuring the proper data codes for source component operation.

Remember that an RSM-901 connected to the Zone A data cable terminal MUST be used for initial set-up, particularly in systems where non-Rotel source components are included.

Note: After completing the installation and component set-up, power down the system, wait approximately 30 seconds, and then power it up again. Test all functions.

RKP-901 Mounting

The RKP-901 keypad mounts in a wall box in the same manner as the RSM-901 sensor/display. There are no restrictions on where the RKP-901 can be located. Common sense and user conve- nience should be the determining factors. Alternatively, the RKP-901 can be mounted in a double-width wall box with an RSM-901 sensor/display. This is the most sensible arrangement from an installation viewpoint (fewer cable runs) but may not be practical in all rooms.

RKP-901 Data Connections

RKP-901s do not need to be set for particular zones or configured as Master/Slaves because they do not display zone or system status information.

Data cable terminations and connections are made the same way as previously detailed. As does the RSM-901, each RKP-901 has two data terminals (“In” and “Out”) located at the bottom of its circuit board. Connect the “Out” terminal, either to the “In” terminal of an RSM-901 in the zone, or to the RMZ-955 controller if the zone does not have a RSM-901.
