IR OUT Jacks

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.
: The EXT REM IN jack located to the
NOTE
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.
