Basic Operations

This section covers the basic operating controls
of the RSP-1068 and the remote.

Power and Standby On/Off

1\ HT
The rear panel POWER switch on the RSP-1068
is a master power switch. The button must be in
the ON position for the unit to operate. When
it is in the OFF position, the unit is fully off
and cannot be activated from the front panel
or remote control.
In normal operation, the rear panel POWER
switch is always left in the ON position. The
RSP-1068 is activated and deactivated using
the front panel STANDBY button, the remote
control POWER button, or the remote ON/
OFF buttons. When activated, the RSP-1068
is fully functional and the front panel display
illuminated. When deactivated, the unit goes
into a standby mode, with minimal power
applied to the microprocessor.
NOTE: When the unit has AC power ap-
plied and the rear panel POWER switch
is on, the front panel STANDBY LED lights,
regardless of whether the unit is in standby
mode or activated.
The front panel STANDBY button and the
remote control POWER button function as
toggle switches. Press either button to activate
the unit. Press either button again to put the
unit in standby mode.
The ON/OFF buttons on the remote serve the
K
same function, but provide discrete ON (active)
or OFF (standby) commands.
When using the Zone 2 capability of the
RSP-1068, the standby activation is com-
pletely independent for the main room and
Zone 2. ON/OFF commands sent from
the remote in the main room will not affect
Zone 2. Pressing the ON/OFF buttons on
a remote located in Zone 2 will only affect
that zone and not the main room. When
the unit is activated in ZONE 2, the ZONE
2 LED on the front panel is lit.
There are three available power mode op-
tions, which may be useful in configuring the
RSP-1068 for special system configurations. See
the Other Options menu in the Setup section of
this manual for additional details on changing
the default standby behavior.

Volume Adjustments

The listening volume of the RSP-1068 can be
adjusted from the front panel or the remote.
Front Panel: Rotate the front panel VOL-
UME knob clockwise to increase the volume,
counterclockwise to decrease.
Remote: Press the VOL UP button to increase
the volume; press the VOL DOWN button to
decrease.
When you adjust the volume, the setting is
shown on the TV monitor and the front panel
display. The current volume setting is also shown
on the SYSTEM STATUS OSD screen.
NOTE: The VOLUME controls can be used
to change the volume in Zone 2. Press the
front-panel or remote control ZONE button
and adjust the volume. After 10 seconds,
the VOLUME control reverts to normal op-
eration.

Muting the Sound

The volume of the RSP-1068 can be turned
off or muted. Push the MUTE button on the
remote once to turn the sound off. A MUTE
indication appears in the OSD and the front
panel displays. Press the MUTE button again,
or adjust the volume settings, to restore output
levels.

Selecting Inputs

You can select any of nine source inputs for
listening and/or watching: CD, TUNER, TAPE,
VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, VIDEO 3, VIDEO 4, VIDEO
5, or MULTI INPUT.
The front-panel display and the ON-SCREEN
DISPLAY show the name of the current listen-
ing source selection. The labels for VIDEO
sources can be customized to match your
components.
All of the source inputs can be customized using
the ON-SCREEN DISPLAY configuration menus
to accept either analog signals or digital signals
from one of the five assignable digital inputs.
When a digital input is assigned, the RSP-1068
checks for the presence of a digital signal at
that input. If a digital signal is present when the
source is selected, it is automatically activated
and the proper surround mode enabled. If
no digital signal is present, the analog inputs
for that source are selected. This auto-sens-
ing is the preferred configuration for digital
