Device Buttons; Command Buttons; Macro Buttons - Rotel RR-939B Manual De Instrucciones

RR-939B
Once the programming is complete, you select a compo-
nent with the press of a button and turn the RR-939B into
the remote control for your Rotel CD player or your Sony
TV set or your Panasonic video recorder. Then, you sim-
ply press command buttons that duplicate the functions
on the remote that came with your component.
To get started, look at the layout of the RR-939B and the
following operating instructions:

Device Buttons

1
Eight buttons at the top of the RR-939B determine which
set of commands is currently active. For example, if you
press the AUDIO button (labeled AUD), the RR-939B be-
comes the remote control for your Rotel Surround Sound
Processor. If you press the TV button, the RR-939B be-
comes the remote control for your TV set.
These buttons are also used in programming the
RR-939B. See PROGRAMMING section below for details.

Command Buttons

2
This large group of buttons duplicates the functions on
the remote controls for your audio/video components. A
general description of these functions follows. Detailed
information on the specific function of each button can
be found in the CONTROL COMMANDS tables.
At the top of this group of buttons are basic controls
such as Power, Volume, Channel Selection, etc.
Below these is a group of buttons that duplicate the
transport functions on a tape recorder or VCR (Stop,
Play, Pause, etc.) as well as the Up and Down commands
that might be found on a cable or satellite TV receiver.
The next group of buttons duplicates the numeric keypad
buttons such as might be used for direct track selection
on a CD Player or direct channel selection on a TV set.
Included in this section are special command buttons
providing functions found on various components.
At the bottom of this group of buttons are ten round
source selection buttons labelled CD, TUNER, TAPE, etc.
These duplicate the source input selection buttons on a
receiver, preamplifier, or surround sound processor. The
function of these buttons is not the same as the DEVICE
buttons at the top of the remote control. The DEVICE but-
tons determine which command set is active on the
RR-939B. The source select COMMAND buttons switch
inputs on the audio/video component being controlled.

To operate the RR-939B:
Step One: Press a DEVICE button to activate the com-
mands for the desired component. This command set
will remain active until you press a different DEVICE but-
ton.
Step Two: Press COMMAND buttons to operate the
component you have selected.
Remember that the COMMAND buttons duplicate many
controls on many different types of audio/video compo-
nents and their function may vary depending on the type
of component selected. For example, the PLAY/SELECT
button engages the play mode on a CD Player, but it du-
plicates the SELECT function on a cable TV converter.
Note: The RR-939B tells you which command set is ac-
tive. Each time you press a COMMAND button, the ac-
tive DEVICE key blinks red to tell you which component
you are controlling. If the COMMAND button that you
press has no function in the active command set (for ex-
ample, the numeric keys in VCR mode), no DEVICE button
will blink, indicating that the COMMAND button is inac-
tive.
The COMMAND buttons are labelled, often with multiple
labels if the button serves different purposes for different
kinds of components. As long as you remember that
pressing a DEVICE button turns the RR-939B into, for ex-
ample, a CD player remote control or a VCR remote con-
trol, the functions of each button should be intuitive.
Tables listing the function of each button for each type of
component are supplied with this manual.
A few buttons have a second function, activated by
pressing and releasing the SHIFT button before pressing
the COMMAND button, as described below.

Macro Buttons

3
A macro is a series of individual commands triggered by
pressing one button. Macros make operating a complex
home entertainment system much easier. For example,
think of playing a videotape: You turn on the TV, turn on
the VCR, select the TV input connected to the VCR, and,
finally, put the VCR into Play mode. That's four separate
commands — and it may take you as many as six pushes
on various buttons to execute them. A macro makes this
simpler by executing all the needed commands with just
one push of a button.
