NOTE
: The volume and input source controls
described in this section are only available
when the RSP-976 is fully activated in the main
room (i.e. the display is visible). If the RSP-976
is turned off, you can only turn Zone 2 on or
off from the front panel. In this case, the ZONE
button is a simple toggle control – turning
Zone 2 on or off with each press of the but-
ton. When Zone 2 is on, the front panel
STANDBY LED flashes. When Zone 2 is off,
the STANDBY LED is steadily lit.

Controlling Zone 2 from the
Remote Location
Remote Location
With a properly configured IR repeater sys-
tem, you have full control of Zone 2 using an
RR-969 remote from the Zone 2 location. You
can select and operate a source, adjust the
volume, and turn Zone 2 on or off. Whatever
commands you send from the RR-969 will
change Zone 2 and only Zone 2, just as if
you were controlling a totally independent
audio system in that room. These changes will
have no effect on the main listening room.

Zone 2 Audio Outputs
See Figure 5
These line-level RCA outputs send the Zone 2
audio signal to a stereo amplifier driving a
pair of speakers in the remote zone.

Although you have the option of using an in-
tegrated amplifier or a receiver to power the
remote speakers, we suggest using a fixed-
gain power amplifier. This simplifies system
installation and operation. Your authorized Rotel
dealer may make another recommendation
based on specific system requirements.

To configure your system for Zone 2 opera-

outputs
on the RSP-976 to the left and right channel

NOTE
: By default, the Zone 2 outputs provide
a VARIABLE level signal, with control of the
volume from the RSP-976 front panel and/or
remote control from Zone 2. Alternatively, you
can configure these outputs for FIXED level,
which disables the volume control and sends
a fixed line-level signal to an amplifier with
its own volume control. See the ON-SCREEN
DISPLAY/Configuration section for details.

ZONE REM. IN Jack
See Figure 5
This 3.5 mm mini-jack accepts signals from a
infrared repeater located in Zone 2. A third-
party IR repeater system is required for op-
eration of the RSP-976’s ZONE 2 functions from
the remote zone.

NOTE
: ZONE 2 and its IR repeater must be in
a different location than RSP-976 to prevent
IR commands intended to control Zone 2 from
inadvertently controlling the main room op-
erations.

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.

NOTE
: The EXT REM IN jack located to the
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.
