SETUP

The RSP-1098 features two types of informa- tion displays to help operate the system. The first consists of simple status displays that appear on the TV screen and/or front panel TFT screen whenever primary settings (Volume, Input, etc.) are changed. These status displays are self- explanatory.

A more comprehensive ON-SCREEN DISPLAY (OSD) menu system is available at any time by pressing the MENU/OSD button on the remote or the front panel MENU button. These OSD menus guide you through the configu- ration and setup of the RSP-1098. In general, the settings made in the configuration process are memorized as default settings and need not be made again for normal operation of the unit.

The OSD menus can be displayed on the TV monitor, the front panel TFT screen, or both. This selection can be changed using the DIS- PLAY OPTIONS menu later in this section.

NOTE: We recommend displaying the OSD menus on the TFT screen for system setup. The OSD menus will be available for display on the TFT screen, regardless of source input and video output connections and whether or not a source is actually playing.

The OSD menus can be configured to display several different languages. The default English version of all the menus is shown at the front of this manual. If your language is available, those menus will be shown in the following instructions. If you would like to change from the default English language before proceed- ing, go to the instructions for the OTHER OP- TIONS menu later in this manual. From this menu, you can change the language display.
