Rear Panel AC Power Connections

AC power cord 35

Your RSX-965 is configured at the factory for the proper AC line voltage in the country where you purchased it (either 115 volts AC or 230 volts AC with a line frequency of either 50 Hz or 60 Hz). The AC line configuration is noted on a decal on the back of your unit.

Plug the supplied cord into the power receptacle on the back of the unit.

AC Convenience Outlets 36

Two outlets let you plug AC cords from source components or other accessories into the back of the RSX-965 so that they will be turned on and off automatically. The outlets are powered when- ever the RSX-965 is fully active. They are off when the RSX-965 is in STANDBY mode.

Note: We DO NOT RECOMMEND that you use this outlet for a power amplifier. Do not exceed the maximum 100 watt capability of these switched outlets.

Remote External Sensor Jack 37

VOLUME DOWN/UP remote control buttons: To change the cur- rent settings for a selected menu choice on some menus in the On-Screen Menu system.

ENTER Button: To toggle through available settings for a selected menu choice on some menus.

BACK Button: The BACK button is used to cancel a selection on an On Screen Menu and return to the previous menu.

Note: There is no need to memorize these buttons. A brief help system at the bottom of each On-Screen Menu reminds you which buttons to press. All screens disappear automatically following 20 seconds of inactivity.

Figure 7 at the front of this manual shows the menus that consti- tute the On-Screen Menu system and how to reach them. Most of the menus are used to configure the system and will not typically be used during normal operation. Details of each menu follow:

This 3.5 mm mini-jack receives command codes from industry- standard infrared receivers (Xantech, etc.) via hard-wired con- nections. This feature could prove useful when the unit is installed in a cabinet and the front-panel sensor is blocked. Consult your authorized Rotel retailer for information on these external repeat- ers and the proper wiring of a jack to fit the mini-jack receptacle.

The On-Screen Display and System Configuration

The RSX-965 features two on-screen systems to help operate the system. The first consists of simple status displays that appear on the TV screen whenever primary settings (Volume, Input, etc.) are changed. These status displays are self-explanatory.

Amore comprehensive On-Screen Menu system is available at any time by pressing the MENU button on the front panel or the remote control. This system includes intuitive menus that guide you through the setup and operation of virtually every function and setting of your RSX-965 using a few buttons on the front panel or the remote control:

MENU Button: To display the MAIN screen. All other menus are reached from this menu. If a menu is already visible, push this but- ton to cancel the Display.

DOWN/UP remote control buttons or NUMERIC Keypad front panel buttons (AC power cord 35): To move up and down in the lists that appear on the On Screen Menu system.

DOWN–selection ENTER–change

BACK-return MENU-screen off

The MAIN menu provides a starting point for reaching all other screens and menus. This screen is available at any time by press- ing the MENU button on the remote control or the front panel. To go to another menu, move the cursor to the desired line using the UP/DOWN buttons on the remote or the NUMERIC Keypad front panel buttons (AC Convenience Outlets 36) and confirm the selection by pressing the EN- TER button. The screen disappears automatically after 20 seconds of inactivity or by pressing the BACK or ENTER button.
