RLC-1080Power Conditioner

DO RUNTIME CAL Screen

This lets you manually initiate a Runtime Calcu- lation test to calibrate the internal measurements which should result in more accurate runtime estimates. This only needs to be done once every 6 months, or if the load connected to the RLC-1080 changes signiﬁcantly in size. Once initiated, the unit will operate on battery power until a low battery condition is reached.

Note: Even when the screen saver is set to ‘ON’, the screen saver message will display only when the system load is less than 5%.

RESET TO DEFAULT: YES/NO Setting

This lets you force the unit to reset all previous set- tings to the factory default values. Use the Setup button to advance to this screen, then press either of the Up/Down Arrow buttons. The system display will ﬁrst show INITIALIZING SETUP TO FACTORY DEFAULT and then INITIAL- IZATION COMPLETE once the process is complete. The system then returns to the RESET TO DEFAULT screen.

The VFD screen will display any faults or warn- ing conditions that occur along with a message explaining what action to take. If ever in doubt as to what action to take, please contact your authorised Rotel dealer or Rotel Technical Sup- port at 800-370-3741.

Setting Default Screen

After one of the Status, Informational or Setup Screens have been displayed, the RLC-1080 display will revert to the Scource; EST RUN- TIME screen. This happens about 30 seconds after the last time the Status or Setup button is pressed. You can set the RLC-1080 to display another of the screens as the “default” screen. To do so, repeatedly press the Status button until the desired screen is displayed. Then press and hold the Status button down until the screen displays “CURRENT SCREEN IS SAVED AS DEFAULT”

connected properly.

Solution: Be sure the power cord is properly connected on both ends.

Possible Cause: No power or insufﬁcient power available at the wall outlet.

Solution: Be sure the wall outlet is delivering the proper voltage by using a voltmeter. Or, if that is not possible, plug in a lamp to see if outlet has power. Note: The RLC-1080 will not turn on if voltage being supplied by the wall outlet is out of range. The unit can still be “cold-started” using battery power, by pressing and holding the power switch until the unit beeps.

Possible Cause: Circuit Breaker has tripped.

Solution: Check the circuit breaker on the rear panel of the RLC-1080 and the circuit breaker in your home that controls the wall outlet the unit is connected to. If the circuit breaker located on the rear of the RLC-1080 has tripped, the center post will be extended outwards about 1/4 to 1/2 inch. Push it back in to reset it. If the circuit breaker trips again, unplug some of the equipment that is connected to the unit and try again. While the unit circuit breaker is rated for 15 Amps, the National Electric Code (NEC) dictates that any particular home circuit should not be loaded to more than 80% of its rating.
