Band Button, Tuning Buttons, Memory Button | Rotel RSX-1065 specification

BAND Button

Press the BAND button to toggle between AM and FM reception. An indicator in the front- panel display confirms your choice and the currently tuned station frequency is shown.

NOTE: If the TUNER is not already the selected input source, pressing the BAND button will automatically switch to the TUNER input.

TUNING Buttons

The TUNING buttons (labeled CH UP/DOWN on the remote control) provide three different tuning functions, depending on the mode of operation.

In the normal FREQUENCY tuning

mode, press a TUNING button (CH UP/ DOWN on the remote) and release to manu- ally jump to the next station frequency, regard- less of whether or not a station is broadcast- ing on that frequency. For auto frequency search tuning, press and hold the TUNING button for approximately one second. An AUTO indicator will appear in the front-panel display and the tuner will begin scanning up or down through the frequencies until the next available signal is detected. If this is not the desired station, repeat the automatic tuning procedure to find the next station. Weak stations will be skipped during auto tuning.

In the PRESET tuning mode, press a TUNING button (CH UP/DOWN on the re- mote) and release to jump to the next memo- rized station preset. Switch between FRE- QUENCY and PRESET tuning modes by press- ing the PRESET button on the remote con- trol. A PRESET indicator appears in the dis- play when PRESET TUNING is activated.

In the RDS PTY search mode, press a TUNING button (CH UP/DOWN on the re- mote) to select the desired program type from the scrolling list in the display. See the section on RDS tuning for more details.

NOTE: Several indicators in the front-panel dis- play assist tuning. A large display shows the tuned frequency. A TUNED indicator lights when a sufficiently strong signal is received. A ST indicator lights when a stereo FM signal is received.

NOTE: If the TUNER is not already the selected input source, pressing a TUNING button (CH UP/DOWN on the remote) will automatically switch to the TUNER input.

MEMORY Button

The MEMORY button is used with the NUMERIC buttons to store memorized station presets. See the next section for detailed instructions.

NUMERIC Buttons:

Station Presets

The RSX-1065 can store up to 30 station pre- sets for recall at any time using the NUMERIC buttons. To memorize a station:

1.Tune to the desired station, AM or FM.

2.Press the MEMORY button on the front- panel. A MEMORY indicator will flash for five seconds in the front-panel display.

3.While the MEMORY indicator is flashing, press the number of the preset where you wish to store the station frequency. For example, to memorize the station as pre- set 3, press the 3 button. To memorize preset 15, press the 1 button followed by the 5 button.

4.A previously stored frequency is erased from memory when a new frequency is memo- rized for the same preset number.

To tune to a previously memorized station, just press the preset number on the NUMERIC buttons. For example, to tune to preset 3, press the 3 button. To tune to preset 15, press the 1 button and then press the 5 button.

NOTE: If the TUNER is not already the selected input source, pressing a NUMERIC button will automatically switch to the TUNER input.

The NUMERIC buttons can also be used for direct access tuning (see next section).

DIRECT Button

If you know the frequency of the desired sta- tion, you may tune it directly using the DIRECT button and the NUMERIC buttons.

1.Press the DIRECT button to change the NUMERIC buttons from station preset to Direct Access mode. The station frequency in the front-panel display will change to a series of four bars, representing the digits of a station frequency, with the first bar flashing.

English

2.Enter the first digit of the station frequency using the NUMERIC buttons. The digit will appear in the frequency display and the second bar will flash. Enter the remaining digits of the frequency. Note that in FM mode, pressing 1 will enter 10 as the digit in the frequency display. When all of the necessary digits have been entered (a fi- nal 0 is displayed automatically), the re- ceiver will tune to the displayed station fre- quency.

Examples:
FM87.50MHz	Press: 8 > 7 > 5
FM101.90MHz	Press: 1 > 1 > 9
AM1610kHz	Press: 1 > 6 > 1

MONO Button

The MONO button changes the FM mode from stereo reception to mono reception. In stereo mode, a stereo signal will be heard if the sta- tion is broadcasting a stereo signal and there is sufficient signal strength. An ST indicator will light in the front-panel display. In mono mode, a mono signal will be heard even if the sta- tion is broadcasting a stereo signal.

NOTE: Switching to mono mode can improve the reception of weak or distant FM signals. Less signal strength is required for clean mono reception than for stereo reception.

PRESET Button

The PRESET button on the remote toggles be- tween frequency tuning mode and preset tuning mode. In frequency tuning mode, the TUNING buttons (CH UP/DOWN on the remote ) ad- vance to the next station frequency. In preset tuning mode, the TUNING buttons advance to the next memorized station preset. A PRE- SET indicator in the front-panel display lights in preset mode.
