Operating range of remote
control unit
The area in which you can use the remote control to
operate the VSX-D938TX/D908TX/D908TX-G is fairly
large. To use, point the remote control toward the
remote sensor on the front panel of this unit while
within the range shown below.
Remote control may not function properly if:
• There are obstacles between the remote
control and the remote sensor.
• Direct sunlight or fluorescent light is
shining onto the remote sensor.
• The receiver located near a device
emitting infrared rays.
• Operated simultaneously with another
remote control which uses infrared rays.

Operating other PIONEER
components
Connecting an optional control cord allows you to
operate other PIONEER components simply by
pointing the receiver’s remote control at the remote
sensor on the front panel of the receiver. The
receiver then sends the remote control signals to the
other devices via the CONTROL OUT terminal.
• You can also control PIONEER
components (and those made by other
manufactures) by pointing the receiver’s
remote control directly at the respective
component. This type of operation does
not require control cords. All you have to
do is recall the appropriate preset code
(see P.79 (VSX-D938TX), P.83 (VSX-
D908TX/D908TX-G)).
• If you use a remote control hooked up via
the CONTROL IN jack with a control cord,
you will not be able to use this unit’s
remote control.
