RF Remote Control Function
Changing the RF Transmission Frequency
The RF remote function may be affected by radio interfer-
ence, etc. In this case, the transmission frequency can be
changed.
To change the RF remote transmission frequency:
1. Open the battery cover on the rear.
2. Change the RF switch setting.

After changing Remote Control unit’s RF frequency, you also
must change the receiver’s RF reception frequency.
3. To change the receiver’s RF reception frequency.
• Press and hold the RF BAND button (TAPE2/CD2 /
MONITOR button) behind the receiver's panel door
for more than 2 seconds. Each time you do this, it
switches the RF reception frequency as follows.
1 “RF BAND 1”
2 “RF BAND 2”
Select the same number as the position number of the
RF switch of the Remote Control unit.
The control distance of the RF remote signal is about 30 ft
(10 meters) provided there is no obstacle.
The following factors can maximize the operation of your
Remote Control unit.
1. Aim Remote Control unit toward the area where the re-
ceiver is located.
2. Do not position the receiver near metal (such as heat
ducts). Metal can absorb RF signals.
3. Make sure the batteries in Remote Control unit are fully
charged. Weak batteries will affect the range of Remote
Control unit.
4. Make sure that Remote Control unit’s range is not being
affected by other radio frequency transmissions.
5. Position the RF antenna to achieve maximum RF range.
The tests for range limits of the Remote Control unit and
the Receiver were conducted in open-air distance tests. Ac-
tual distance of the signal will be based on the construction
of the building the unit is being used in as well as other
factors such as outside RF interference.
