User manual ROTEL RDA-985

[. . . ] Heed all warnings and safety information in these instructions and on the product itself. Clean the RDA-985 only with a dry cloth or a vacuum cleaner. Keep the ventilation inlets on the unit unobstructed. [. . . ] Other than a power switch, there are no front panel controls or switches. The unit senses when a DTS signal is present and engages the decoding circuitry automatically. The RDA-985 also provides pass-through digital outputs and analog inputs to provide full flexibility in a number of system configurations. For example, a second outboard decoder (such as Dolby Digital) can be connected to the analog inputs of the RDA-985. When a DTS signal is present at the digital input, the RDA-985 will decode it and send the signal to the outputs. When no DTS signal is present, the RDA-985 will pass the signal from the analog inputs to the outputs. AC Power Input A Few Precautions Please read this manual carefully. In addition to installation and operating instructions, it provides valuable information on various RDA-985 system configurations as well as general information that will help you get optimum performance from your system. Please contact your authorized Rotel retailer for answers to any questions you might have. In addition, all of us at Rotel welcome your questions and comments. Save the RDA-985 shipping carton and all enclosed packing material for future use. Shipping or moving the RDA-985 in anything other than the original packing material may result in severe damage that is not covered by the warranty. Be sure to keep the original sales receipt. It is your best record of the date of purchase, which you will need in the event warranty service is required. 3 3 3 2 and Power Indicator and 4 4 7 6 Digital Input Selector Switch Coaxial Digital Output DTS Indicator 3 8 4 4 4 and Signal Indicator 4 4 4 4 Placement Use common sense when placing the RDA-985 in a cabinet or when stacking other equipment. Make sure that the shelf or cabinet can support its weight. Do not stack heavy components on top of the RDA-985. Avoid placing the unit where it may be subject to excessive heat such as on top of a large power amplifier or near a heat register. For best performance, avoid placing the unit where it may be subject to vibration, such as near a speaker. 12 Your RDA-985 is configured for the proper AC voltage in the country where you purchased it (either 115 volts or 230/240 volts). The AC line configuration is noted on a decal on the back panel. Note: Should you move your unit to another country, it may be possible to reconfigure it for use on a different line voltage. [. . . ] The SIGNAL indicator lights whenever a digital signal from a source component is sensed by the digital inputs. The DTS indicator lights if that digital signal is DTS encoded. 4 Note: If you have a DTS signal at the digital inputs and an analog signal at the analog inputs, the DTS signal will take priority. To switch to the analog signal, put the DTS source component in its PAUSE or STOP mode.
