User manual ROTEL RB-1080

[. . . ] Connect the component to the power outlet only with the supplied power supply cable or an exact equivalent. Do not route the power cord where it will be crushed, pinched, bent at severe angles, exposed to heat, or damaged in any way. Pay particular attention to the power cord at the plug and where it exits the back of the unit. The power cord should be unplugged from the wall outlet if the unit is to be left unused for a long period of time. [. . . ] Likewise, remember the weight of the amplifier when you select an installation location. Make sure that the shelf or cabinet can support its considerable bulk. Because of its high power rating, the RB-1080 can draw considerable current. Therefore, it should be plugged directly into a 3-pin polarized wall outlet. A heavy duty multi-tap power outlet strip may be used if it (and the wall outlet) is rated to handle the current demanded by the RB-1080 and all the other components connected to it. Be sure the Power Switch on the front panel of the RB-1080 is turned off (in the out position). Then, connect the supplied power cord on the back panel to the Power Connector of the amplifier and to the AC power outlet. Your RB-1080 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). Note: Should you move your RB-1080 amplifier to another country, it is possible to reconfigure your amplifier for use on a different line voltage. Opening the enclosure of the RB-1080 exposes you to dangerous voltages. Consult a qualified service person or the Rotel factory service department for information. If you are going to be away from home for an extended period of time such as a monthlong vacation, it is a sensible precaution to unplug your amplifier (as well as other audio and video components) while you are away. The LED indicator above the switch will light, indicating that the amplifier is turned on. To turn the amplifier off, push the button again and return it to the out position. With the switch in the +12V TRIGGER ON position, the amplifier is turned on automatically when a 12V trigger signal is present at the 3. The amplifier will go into standby mode if the +12V signal is not present. Turning the switch OFF cuts power to the amplifier, regardless of whether or not a trigger signal is present. THX grew from George Lucas' personal desire to make your experience of the film soundtrack, in both movie theaters and in your home theater, as faithful as possible to what the director intended. Movie sound tracks are mixed in special movie theaters called dubbing stages and are designed to be played back in movie theaters with similar equipment and conditions. The soundtrack created for movie theaters is then transferred directly onto Laserdisc, VHS tape, DVD, etc. [. . . ] Connect XLR audio interconnect cables from each of the outputs from the preamplifier or signal processor to the corresponding Balanced Input of the RB-1080. Then push the front panel power switch in and out to reset the protection devices. If the problem is not corrected or reoccurs, there is a problem with the system or the amplifier itself. Note: Make sure that the power cord is disconnected from the wall before checking or replacing the fuse. [. . . ]
