RR-DV99 Remote Control
Installing the Batteries
The battery compartment is located on the back
of the remote control unit. Place three AAA
batteries in the remote control according to
the polarity markings (“+” and “–”) inside the
compartment and on the batteries. Replace the
battery compartment cover.
The batteries will last about six months with
normal use. If the functions of the remote control
become erratic, replace the batteries.
Precautions for the safe use of
batteries
Observe the following precautions for the safe
use of batteries. If they are used improperly
their life will be shortened, they may burst or
their contents may leak.
• Remove the batteries from the remote control
if it will not be used for a long period of
time.
• Remove dead batteries and dispose of them
properly.
• Never leave dead batteries lying around.
Do not take them apart, mix them with other
refuse, or throw them into an incinerator.
• Never touch liquid that has leaked out of a
battery.
• Do not mix new and old batteries, or batteries
of different types, when replacing them.
Using the Remote Control
When using the remote control point it at
the front panel of the RDV-1062. The remote
control may not always properly operate the
RDV-1062 if it is used from too far away or
if you are at too great of an angle relative to
the front panel.
The remote control may also fail to properly
operate the RDV-1062 if the remote control
sensor
5 on the front panel is exposed to
strong light, such as sunlight.
For best results there must be a direct, unob-
structed path from the remote control to the
front panel sensor.
Connecting the Power Cord
AC Input -
It is best to plug the RDV-1062 directly into a
2-pin polarized wall outlet. Avoid the use of
extension cords.
Your RDV-1062 will automatically configure
itself for the proper AC line voltage ranging
from 110 volts to 240 volts at 50/60Hz. No
setting is required to match the unit to your
local voltage.
Plug the supplied cord into the AC INPUT
receptacle on the back of the unit. After all
connections have been made, plug the cord
into an appropriate AC wall outlet.
NOTE: If you are away for an extended
period of time, it is a sensible precaution to
unplug your audio/video components
Observe the following precautions:
• Do not connect or disconnect the power cord
with wet hands.
• Disconnect the power cord if you are not
going to use the unit for a long time.
• When unplugging the player from the wall
outlet, always pull the plug, not the power
cord.
• Disconnect the power cord before cleaning
the unit.
• Disconnect the power cord before moving
the unit.
• Do not damage, alter, twist or pull the power
cord. This may damage the cord and cause
fire, electric shock, or other accidents. Contact
your authorized Rotel dealer and get a new
power cord if the cord is damaged.
• Do not put anything heavy, on the unit, or the
power cord, as this may cause fire, electric
shock, or other accidents.
Remote Control Numeric Buttons
For many operations selections are made using
the RR-DV99 NUMERIC BUTTONS
9 . The
examples below show how to select various
numbered items.
External Remote In y
The 3.5mm mini-jack (labeled EXT REM IN)
receives command signals from an industry
standard infrared receiver. This feature is
useful when the unit is installed in a cabinet
and the front panel sensor is blocked. Consult
your authorized Rotel dealer for information
on external receivers and the proper wiring of
a jack to fit the mini-jack receptacle.
12V TRIGGER Connection e
The RDV-1062 can be activated by a remote
12 volt trigger signal from a Rotel control
component such as a preamplifier, integrated
amplifier, receiver or surround processor. The
12V TRIG input accepts any control signal (AC
or DC) ranging from 3 volts to 30 volts. When
a cable is connected to the input and a trigger
signal is present, the DVD player is activated.
When the trigger signal is interrupted, the
unit goes into standby mode. The front panel
indicator light remains lit, but the display goes
dark and the unit will not operate. Consult your
authorized Rotel dealer for information on the
12V TRIG input and the proper wiring of a plug
to fit the connector.
Computer I/O r
The RDV-1062 can be operated from a computer
with audio system control software from third-
party developers. This control is accomplished
by sending operating codes from the computer
via a hard-wired RS-232 serial connection.
The COMPUTER I/O input provides the neces-
sary network connections on the back panel. It
accepts standard RJ-45 8-pin modular plugs,
such as those commonly used in 10-BaseT UTP
Ethernet cabling.
For additional information on the connections,
cabling, software, and operating codes for
computer control of the RDV-1062, contact
your authorized Rotel dealer.
