RT-10

Troubleshooting & Maintenance

3.Make sure all associated components are powered on and configured with the correct settings. In particular, make sure volume is set to an audible level.

4.Make sure the RT-10 has a digital and an analog audio output connection (2-13). Some disc formats, such as DVD-As and SACDs, do not generate digital audio output signals.

5.Make sure the RT-10 is not connected to the phono (turntable) audio input connector on the associated component.

6.Clean the loaded disc (5-16).

CAUTION Dirty or damaged discs such as those shown below might affect playback performance or damage the RT-10. Do not

attempt to load cracked, chipped, scratched, warped, dirty, or otherwise damaged discs in the disc drawer.

7.Clean the RT-10 audio output connectors, the associated component audio input connectors, and the audio cable plugs to ensure that the connectors and plugs are not dirty or oxidized.

The RT-10 is powered on, but there is no digital audio.

1.If the D OFF indicator appears on the front panel display, set the Digital Out parameter (3-14) to On to reactivate the digital audio output connectors.

2.Make sure the loaded disc generates digital audio output signals. Some discs, such as DVD-As and SACDs, only generate analog audio output signals.

3.If the loaded disc does not allow audio downmixing, set the Audio Out parameter (3-16) to 5.1 Channel. Discs such as DVD-As that do not allow audio downmixing will mute the digital audio output connectors when the Audio Out parameter is set to 2 Channel.

4.Make sure the Dolby Digital, DTS, Linear PCM, and MPEG parameter (3-12 to 3-14) settings are compatible with the associated component. For instance, the Dolby Digital parameter should be set to Dolby Digital if the associated component is compatible with Dolby Digital sources and to Dolby DigitalPCM if the associated component is not compatible with Dolby Digital sources.

The RT-10 is powered on, but there is no stereo audio.

1.Set the Audio Out parameter (3-16) to 2 Channel. When this parameter is set to 5.1 Channel, the RT-10 passes multi- channel audio output to the associated component.

2.Make sure the loaded disc allows audio downmixing. Discs such as DVD-As that do not allow audio downmixing always output multi-channel audio, even when the Audio Out parameter (3-16) is set to 2 Channel.

3.Make sure an audio track recorded in stereo format is selected on the loaded disc (4-7). The remote control AUDIO button or the disc menu can be used to select the desired audio track (audio language and output format).
