MAIN MENU

The ZONE 2 SETUP menu provides settings and configuration options related to the op- eration of Zone 2. This menu is reached by highlighting the ZONE 2 line on the MAIN menu and pressing ENTER.

SOURCE: Specifies a source for listening in Zone 2. Options are CD, TUNER, TAPE, VIDEO 1–5, SOURCE, and OFF. Selecting the SOURCE option links the Zone 2 source to the source selected for the main zone so that Zone 2 will hear the same source as the main zone. Selecting the OFF option turns Zone 2 off.

VOLUME SETUP: configures the Zone 2 outputs for VARIABLE or FIXED volume lev- els. VARIABLE allows control of the volume settings in Zone 2 from the RSX-1057 front panel or from a remote control/IR repeater in Zone 2. FIXED output disables the Zone 2 volume control. In this mode, the Zone 2 level can be fixed at the level specified on the next line, thus optimizing system perfor- mance when sending a fixed level signal to a preamp or amplifier with its own volume adjustment.

VOLUME: In VARIABLE output mode, this line shows the current volume setting for Zone 2. In FIXED output mode, this volume setting establishes a permanent fixed output level for Zone 2.

Move the highlight to the desired line using the UP/DOWN buttons and use the +/– but- tons to adjust the volume level. To return to the MAIN menu, press the ENTER button. Press the MENU/OSD button on the remote to cancel the display and return to normal operation.

TURN ON VOL: Specifies a default volume level to be used each time Zone 2 is acti- vated. You can select LAST to have Zone 2 activate with the last previously used volume setting. Or, you specify a volume from MIN (full mute) to MAX, in 1dB increments. Note that this setting cannot exceed the MAX VOL established in the next line of the menu.

MAX VOL: Specifies the maximum volume level for Zone 2. The volume cannot be ad- justed above this level. Settings range from MIN to MAX, in 1dB increments.

12V TRIGGER: The RSX-1057 has three12V trigger outputs that supply a 12V DC signal to turn on Rotel components and other com- ponents as needed. The 12V Trigger labeled ZONE 2 is assigned to Zone 2 and can send

aturn-on signal to remote components when- ever Zone 2 is activated. Select the appro- priate setting from eight options to have the ZONE 2 trigger output send the turn-on sig- nal. The options that will activate the Zone 2 trigger are: zone, 1+zone, 2+zone, and ALL. The options that will disable the Zone 2 trigger are: 1, 2, 1+2, and No.

MAIN MENU

The DEFAULT SETUP menu provides access to six functions:

Set the tuning function for North Ameri- can or European frequencies.

Redirect the front channel amplifiers to power center back speakers or speakers in Zone 2 speakers.

Restore all features and settings to the original FACTORY DEFAULT settings.

Memorize a custom group of settings as a USER DEFAULT.

Activate the memorized USER DEFAULT settings.

To change the TUNER setting: Place the highlight on the TUNER SETTING line using the UP/DOWN buttons and use the +/– but- tons to change the setting to N. AMERICA or EUROPE. Then, move the highlight to the FACTORY DEFAULT line and change the set- ting to YES as described above. The screen will change to a confirmation screen. Press the ENTER button to proceed with resetting the FACTORY DEFAULT settings and changing the TUNER SETTING. To return to the MAIN menu without resetting the FACTORY DEFAULT and TUNER settings, change the entry to NO and press the ENTER button.

To change the FRONT REDIRECT set- ting: Place the highlight on the FRONT REDI- RECT line using the UP/DOWN buttons and use the +/– buttons to change the setting to FRONT SP (for powering front speakers), CB SP (for powering center back speakers), or ZONE SP (for powering speakers in zone 2). If you redirect the internal amplifiers, then you will need a separate stereo amplifier to drive your front speakers.

NOTE: Changing the default TUNER SETTING or REDIRECT SETTING can only done at the same time as restoring the FACTORY DEFAULT settings. Therefore, we recommend selecting your default TUNER and REDIRECT settings and resetting to the FACTORY DEFAULT set- tings as the first step in configuring the unit, before you change or memorize any other configuration settings.

To restore the FACTORY DEFAULT set- tings: Place the highlight on the FACTORY DEFAULT line using the UP/DOWN buttons and use the +/– buttons to change the set- ting to YES. Press the ENTER button to pro- ceed with resetting the FACTORY DEFAULT settings. The unit will power off and then on, with the factory settings restored. To return to the MAIN menu without resetting the FAC- TORY DEFAULT settings, change the entry to NO and press the ENTER button.

NOTE: 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 fac- tory defaults.
