• Insert two AA-size (R6) batteries as indicated by the polarity markings.
RF remote control function
The remote control has the RF remote function in addition to the IR
remote function. The VR-6060 can receive the remote control com-
mands even when they are installed in a position where the IR remote
signal can hardly access, for example inside a cabinet. The receiver is not
equipped with the RF remote bi-directional communication function. The
bi-directional communication is available only using the IR remote function.
Changing the RF transmission frequency
The RF remote function may be unavailable due to radio wave cross talk,
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.
Dummy
2 Change the RF switch setting.

After changing the RF frequency of remote control, be also sure to
change that of the receiver.
3 Change the receiver's RF reception frequency.
• Press and hold the SET UP key on the front panel of the receiver for
more than 2 seconds.
Each time you press the SET UP key, the RF reception frequency
changes as follows:
1 "RF BAND 1"
2 "RF BAND 2"
3 "RF OFF"
• Select the same number as the position number of the RF switch of
the remote control.

SET UP
• The remote control signal received by main unit IR and RF signals.
• When pressing more than one remote control key successively, press
the keys securely by leaving an interval of 1 second or more between
keys.
Notes
1. The supplied batteries may have shorter lives than ordinary batteries
due to use during operation checks.
2. When the remote-controllable distance gets shorter than before,
replace both batteries with new ones.
3. Placing the remote sensor in direct sunlight, or in direct light from a
high frequency fluorescent lamp may cause a malfunction.
In such a case, change the location of the system installation to
prevent malfunction.
Important notes
Here is list of adjustment which can maximize the operation of
your remote control. For optimal operation of the remote control:
1 Aim the remote control toward the room where the receiver is
located.
2 Do not position the receiver and remote control near metal (such
as heat ducts). Metal can absorb RF signals.
3 Make sure the batteries in the remote control are fully charged.
Weak batteries will affect the range of the remote control.
4 When there is an obstruction around other equipments that send
signal from the remote control, the control distance of the RF
remote signal will be short.
Note
• The tests for range limits of the remote control and the receiver are
conducted in open-air distance test. Actual 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 interference.
