User manual ROTEL RT-970BX

[. . . ] If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: · Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. (TV, radio, etc. ) · Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver · Connect the equipment to an outlet on circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. · Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for additional help. Caution This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules operation is subject to the following to conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Important Safety Instructions WARNING: There are no user serviceable parts inside. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the unit to moisture or water. [. . . ] Press the C button to adjust the CENTER channel. Press the to adjust the SUBWOOFER S button to adjust channel. Press the R button the rear SURROUND or CENTER BACK channels (each press of the R button toggles between the SURROUND channels and the CENTER BACK channels). The selected speaker and its current setting appear briefly in the display. Use the UP or DOWN buttons remote to adjust the output level of the selected channel(s). If no level adjustment is made for 5 seconds after pressing one of the selection buttons, the levels revert to the default calibrated settings. NOTE: This adjustment is temporary. Selecting a different input or turning the unit off reverts to the default levels. A "D. RANGE" indicator in the front-panel display lights when the dynamic range is not set to the MAX setting. The new dynamic range setting appears briefly in the alphanumeric display when the setting is changed. NOTE: The DYNAMIC RANGE feature is only available in Dolby Digital mode. It is designed to keep dialog intelligible while adjusting the loudest and softest sounds. Connections: Overview The RT-970BX connections include standard RCA audio inputs and outputs, composite video inputs and outputs, S-Video inputs and outputs, Component Video inputs, plus coaxial and optical digital inputs and outputs. Surround formats like Dolby Digital and DTS are digital formats and the RT-970BX can only decode them when a digital input signal is available. For this reason, you should always connect your DVD player's digital outputs to the RT-970BX, using either the optical or coax inputs. NOTE: The RT-970BX has RCA preamp audio outputs for use with power amplifiers as well as composite video, S-Video, and Component Video outputs to connect your TV monitor. Conversely, Composite video signals from sources cannot be sent to a TV set from the RT-970BX TV MONITOR outputs with an S-Video cable. Therefore, Composite and S-Video connections cannot be "mixed" in a system. However, both Composite and S-Video cables may be connected from the RT-970BX TV MONITOR outputs to both Composite and S-Video inputs on a TV or projector. This dual connection from the RT-970BX will provide limited S-Video capability in a system that is predominantly connected with Composite video cables. When both Composite and S-Video cables are connected from the same source, both Composite and S-Video signals are available at the RT-970BX's TV MONITOR outputs, allowing the selection of the desired signal with the TV input selector. The Composite video signal is available at the REC Out for recording. This dual connection can be used to provide video taping in a system that is predominantly connected with S-Video cables, but also includes a VCR with Composite video. Component Video: Component Video connections can significantly improve the picture quality when using a digital "high-definition" television monitor and a DVD player's progressive scanning feature. They provide little benefit with standard analog TV monitors. Their use will almost certainly require running multiple outputs to the TV and switching between the TV's various inputs when changing sources. TUNER Inputs Connect the left and right analog outputs from your tuner to the input jacks labeled TUNER. TAPE Inputs and Outputs The RT-970BX provides a pair of inputs and a pair of record outputs for connecting an analog audio tape deck. The analog source signal available for recording at the TAPE outputs is selected with the REC button on the front-panel (or the ZONE button on the remote) and its label appears in the display. [. . . ] DYNAMIC: steps through the three dynamic range settings available in digital modes: · MAX (no compression/full dynamic range) · MID (moderate compression) · MIN (full compression/minimum dynamic range). Resetting to factory default settings will erase all stored settings including delay settings, speaker settings, balance settings, input settings and more. You will lose ALL system configuration settings. Be certain that you wish to do so before resetting the factory defaults. NOTE: To save USER DEFAULT settings: Many of the current configuration settings can be stored as a USER DEFAULT, which can be activated at any time from this menu screen. To save the current settings as a USER DEFAULT Place the highlight on the USER DEFAULT SET line using the UP/DOWN buttons and use the 29 English +/­ buttons to change the setting to YES. [. . . ]
