Rear Panel AC Power Connections
AC power cord

Your RSX-965 is configured at the factory for the proper AC line
voltage in the country where you purchased it (either 115 volts AC
or 230 volts AC with a line frequency of either 50 Hz or 60 Hz). The
AC line configuration is noted on a decal on the back of your unit.
Plug the supplied cord into the power receptacle on the back of
the unit.
AC Convenience Outlets
Two outlets let you plug AC cords from source components or
other accessories into the back of the RSX-965 so that they will be
turned on and off automatically. The outlets are powered when-
ever the RSX-965 is fully active. They are off when the RSX-965 is
in STANDBY mode.
Note: We DO NOT RECOMMEND that you use this outlet for a
power amplifier. Do not exceed the maximum 100 watt capability
of these switched outlets.
Remote External Sensor Jack
This 3.5 mm mini-jack receives command codes from industry-
standard infrared receivers (Xantech, etc.) via hard-wired con-
nections. This feature could prove useful when the unit is installed
in a cabinet and the front-panel sensor is blocked. Consult your
authorized Rotel retailer for information on these external repeat-
ers and the proper wiring of a jack to fit the mini-jack receptacle.
The On-Screen Display and
System Configuration
The RSX-965 features two on-screen systems to help operate the
system. The first consists of simple status displays that appear on
the TV screen whenever primary settings (Volume, Input, etc.) are
changed. These status displays are self-explanatory.
A more comprehensive On-Screen Menu system is available at
any time by pressing the MENU button on the front panel or the
remote control. This system includes intuitive menus that guide
you through the setup and operation of virtually every function
and setting of your RSX-965 using a few buttons on the front panel
or the remote control:
MENU Button: To display the MAIN screen. All other menus are
reached from this menu. If a menu is already visible, push this but-
ton to cancel the Display.
DOWN/UP remote control buttons or NUMERIC Keypad front
panel buttons (
): To move up and down in the lists that appear
on the On Screen Menu system.

VOLUME DOWN/UP remote control buttons: To change the cur-
rent settings for a selected menu choice on some menus in the
On-Screen Menu system.
ENTER Button: To toggle through available settings for a selected
menu choice on some menus.
BACK Button: The BACK button is used to cancel a selection on
an On Screen Menu and return to the previous menu.
Note: There is no need to memorize these buttons. A brief help
system at the bottom of each On-Screen Menu reminds you which
buttons to press. All screens disappear automatically following 20
seconds of inactivity.
Figure 7 at the front of this manual shows the menus that consti-
tute the On-Screen Menu system and how to reach them. Most of
the menus are used to configure the system and will not typically
be used during normal operation. Details of each menu follow:
