MULTI-ROOM SYSTEM CONTROLLER RMZ-955

System Set-up & Programming

b)Select an input (Tuner, CD, Tape/Sat, or VCR/DVD) on the RR-952 so that the corresponding label shows on Zone A’s RSM-901 sen- sor/display.

c)Place the Set-up Card over the RR-952’s pushbuttons.

Source Commands

The RMZ-955 is factory set for use with Rotel source components, including Rotel multi-disc CD players. No adjustments are neces- sary for these components.

In addition to Rotel source components, the RMZ-955 can be set to operate the following:

Input 1

Tuners:

Rotel, Sony, Pioneer, Yamaha, Denon

Input 2

CD:

Rotel, Sony, Pioneer, Yamaha, Denon, RC5

Input 3

Tape Deck:

Rotel, Sony, Pioneer, Yamaha, Denon

 

Satellite TV: RCA, Sony

Input 4

CD 2:

Sony, Pioneer

 

Laser Disc:

Pioneer

 

VCR:

Sony, Panasonic

 

DVD Player:

Pioneer, Toshiba

Note 1: Assign each type of component to the input specified above so that the label displayed by the RSM-901 (Tuner, CD, etc.) matches the component when each input is selected.

Note 2: Two CD players of the same brand cannot be used in the same system. Chose a different brand for CD.2

d)With the RR-952 pointing at the RSM-901 sensor/display, enter “Set-up” mode by pushing both Set-up buttons simultaneously for a few seconds until the RSM-901 displays “Set ?”, indicating that the system is awaiting further instructions.

Source Command Set-up

a)Locate Zone A’s RSM-901 sensor/display. Source command sets cannot be changed from any other Zone or even from Zone A’s keypad. If in doubt, send a command with the RR-952 hand held remote and monitor Zone A’s green Code LED on the RMZ-955’s front panel: it will flash when the RMZ-955 recognizes and processes a command.

Note: Remember that any RSM-901 sensor/display can be con- nected to the Zone A data terminal for this procedure. Even if Zone A is equipped with a wall mounted sensor/display, it is probably more convenient to temporarily disconnect the data cable from that unit and substitute another RSM-901 placed near the RMZ-955 and source components.

To avoid the possibility of an IR loop when using an RSM-901 lo- cated near the RMZ-955, temporarily remove the jumper be- tween Terminals 2 and 3 of the TX FORMAT terminal block on the rear panel of the RMZ-955. Also make sure that any RSM-901 used in this set-up sequence has the circuit board DIP switches set for Zone A and “Master” (See page 13).
