IR OUT Jacks

IR OUT Jacks On-Screen Display /

See Figure 5

The IR OUT 1 & 2 jacks send IR signals re- ceived at the ZONE REM IN jack or the EX- TERNAL REM IN jack to an infrared emitter placed in front of a source component or to Rotel CD players, cassette decks, or tuners with a compatible rear panel IR connector.

This output is used to allow IR signals from Zone 2 to be sent to the source components, or to pass along IR signals from a remote in the main room when the sensors on the source compo- nents are blocked by installation in a cabinet. See your authorized Rotel dealer for information on IR repeater systems.

NOTE: The EXT REM IN jack located to the right of these jacks is for use with an external IR sensor duplicating the front-panel IR sen- sor and located in the primary zone. It should not be used for ZONE 2 IR connections.

On-Screen Display /

Configuration

The RSX-972 features two on-screen systems to help operate the system. The first consists of simple status displays that appear on the TV screen whenever primary settings (Volume, Input, etc.) are changed. These status displays are self-explanatory.

A more comprehensive ON-SCREEN DISPLAY menu system is available at any time by press- ing the MENU button on the remote control. These menus guide you through the setup and operation of the RSX-972.

We recommend that initial system setup should be done while using a Composite video cable. Connect a Composite video cable from the RSX-972 TV MONITOR outputs to the video input of the TV or projector. No other video connections should be made at this time.

For a PAL TV monitor: Note that on a PAL standard monitor, the OSD cannot be displayed until a video signal is present, irrespective of the type of video cables in use. For setup, connect the Composite video output from your DVD player and select its input on the RSX-972. The OSD will be displayed as an overlay to the video signal from the DVD player.
