RR-939 Remote Control
The RSX-965 includes a handheld remote control that does far
more than operate the RSX-965. The RR-939 is a full-function pro-
grammable remote control that can operate up to 8 audio/video
components.
A separate manual, included with the remote, gives detailed infor-
mation on programming and using the RR-939 to replace all of the
remote controls in your system. This section is intended to provide
only that information which pertains to the use of the RR-939 to
operate the RSX-965.
Note: Many functions duplicate the RSX-965 front panel controls
and are listed here only for your reference. Please refer to the
previous Front Panel Controls section of this manual if you need
additional information.
To operate the RSX-965 with the remote, make sure that the AU-
DIO mode is active by pressing the AUD button on the remote be-
fore you start. If it is active, pressing command keys on the RR-939
will cause the AUDIO button to flash red. Once the AUDIO mode is
active, it will stay active unless you press one of the other DEVICE
buttons to control a different component.
Programming the RR-939
The RR-939 is preprogrammed from the factory to operate the
RSX-965. Should the AUDIO command set on your RR-939 not op-
erate the RSX-965, it’s possible that the programming had been
inadvertantly changed. To reprogram the remote to operate the
RSX-965:
1. Press the AUDIO button at the top of the remote while simulta-
neously pressing the MUTE button and hold both for at least one
second. The AUDIO button will light in red for 20 seconds, indicat-
ing that you have entered the program mode. The next step must
be done within this 20 second period, or the RR-939 will revert to
its standard operating mode.
2. Use the NUMERIC buttons to enter the 3-digit code (001) for the
RSX-965 – press 0, then 0, then 1. The AUDIO button will flash
each time you enter a digit.
3. Store the code number by pressing the corresponding AUDIO
button again. The button will blink twice to confirm the storage of
the code in memory.
