Connecting the Extender to External Equipment

The Extender can be connected to external equipment through the various outputs on the back
panel.

Warning

Make sure that the equipment is always turned off before connecting it to the Extender.

Attaching the Extender to Infrared Controlled A/V equipment

For the Extender to transmit an IR signal, you need to connect it to the A/V component via the IR
Output on the back of the Extender. In contrast to previous Marantz Extenders, the RX9001 has no IR
blaster.

To connect the Extender to infrared controlled A/V equipment, use one of the following cables
enclosed with the Extender:

• a Dual IR emitter;
-or-
• a mini-jack IR cable.

Insert the mini-jack in the Extender
and attach an emitter to the infrared
display of the infrared controlled
device.

Insert one mini-jack in the
Extender and the other in the
infrared controlled device.

Adjusting the Power Level of the IR Outputs

At the back of the Extender there are 4 dipswitches, one for each IR output. Use these dipswitches
to reduce the power level of the Dual IR emitters and the mini-jack cables.

This is useful when you suspect that the IR signal is too strong for the receiving A/V component, or
when you connect the IR port to an external IR-bus system.
