AC Power and Control

AC Power Input e

Your RCD-06 is configured at the factory for the proper AC voltage in the country where you purchased it (either 120 volts or 230 volts). The AC line configuration is noted on a decal on the back panel.

NOTE: Should you move your CD player to another country, it may be possible to re- configure it for use on a different line volt- age. Do not attempt to perform this conversion yourself. Opening the enclosure of the RCD-06 exposes you to dangerous voltages. Consult a qualified service person or the Rotel factory service department for information.

The RCD-06 should be plugged directly into a 2-pin polarized wall outlet or into the switched outlet on another component in your audio system. Do not use an extension cord.

Be sure the power switch on the front panel of the RCD-06 is turned off (in the “out” position). Then, connect the supplied power cord to the AC power receptacle on the rear of the unit and the AC power outlet.

If you are going to be away from home for an extended period of time such as a month-long vacation, it is a sensible precaution to unplug your CD player (as well as other audio and video components) while you are away.

Power Switch 1 and Power Indicator 2

The power switch is located on the front panel of your CD player. To turn the CD player on, push the switch in. The LED indicator above the switch and the Display will light up, indicating that the CD player is turned on. To turn the CD player off, push the button again and return it to the “out” position.

NOTE: If you are using a switched outlet to turn on and off your CD player, you should leave the power switch in the “on” position. When AC power is applied to the unit, it will power up in fully active mode.

Output Connections

The RCD-06 gives you a choice of two dif- ferent kinds of output connections — an analog output signal from the built-in D/A converter for use with conventional analog audio components and a coax digital output which provides an unprocessed digital data signal for use with outboard D/A converters or digital processors.

NOTE: To prevent loud noises that neither you nor your speakers will appreciate, make sure the CD player is turned off when you make any signal connections.

Analog Outputs -

[See Figure 3 for wiring illustration]

A pair of standard RCA jacks supplies an analog output signal from the RCD-06 to the source inputs of an audio preamplifier, in- tegrated amplifier, or receiver.

Select high quality audio interconnect cables. Connect the left channel output of the RCD-06 to the left channel source input on the preamplifier or other component. Connect the right output of the RCD-06 to the right channel source input on the preamplifier or other component.

Digital Output =

[See Figure 4 for wiring illustration]

If you are using an outboard D/A converter or other digital processor, you will need an unprocessed digital data stream from the RCD-06, taken before the built-in D/A con- verter. This signal is supplied by the RCD- 06’s back-panel digital output jack. Using a standard 75 ohm coax digital cable, connect the RCD-06’s coax digital output to the coax digital input connector on the outboard D/A converter.

Operation

The RCD-06 can be operated using its front panel buttons or from corresponding buttons on the supplied infrared remote control. Spe- cific instructions for each of these controls are detailed below. Most of the buttons are dupli- cated on the front panel and on the IR remote control. However, there are a few exceptions where the buttons are only available on one or the other. These exceptions are noted in the instructions.

Infrared Remote Control 4

Before using the IR remote control, it is neces- sary to install two “UM-4/AAA” batteries (supplied). Remove the plastic cover on the back of the IR remote, install the batteries (observing the + and – polarity indications), and reinstall the cover.

To use the IR remote control, aim it at the IR sensor 4located in the Display area on the front panel of the RCD-06.

Display 5

A lighted Display on the front panel of the RCD-06 provides useful information about the status of the unit, activation of special features, and track/time information for the disc being played. Each of these indicators is described in the detailed operating instructions that follow.

Disc Drawer 3

Amotor-driven disc drawer, located in the center of the RCD-06, slides out to accept a compact disc and retracts to play the disc. Place the compact disc in the drawer label-side up. Make sure the disc is properly centered in the tray. The drawer can be closed in two ways: pushing the OPN/CLS button or pushing the PLAY button.
