12V TRIGGER Connections
Many Rotel amplifiers offer the option of turning
them on and off using a 12 volt trigger. These
three connections provide this 12 volt trigger
signal from the RSX-1067. When the RSX-1067
is activated, a 12 volt DC signal is sent to the
amplifiers to turn them on. When the RSX-1067
is put in STANDBY mode, the trigger signal
is interrupted and the amplifiers turn off.
To use the remote turn on feature, connect one
of the RSX-1067’s 12V TRIG OUT jacks to the
12 volt trigger input of a Rotel amplifier, us-
ing a cable with mono 3.5 mm mini-plugs on
both ends. The +12 V DC signal appears at
the “tip” connector.
NOTE
: The 12V Trigger outputs can be config-
ured to turn on only when specific input
sources are activated. See the Input Setup
and Zone 2 Setup menus in the Setup section
of this manual for details.
REM IN Jacks
Two 3.5 mm mini-jacks (labeled ZONE and
EXT) receive command codes from an indus-
try-standard infrared receivers (Xantech, etc.),
used when the IR signals from a hand held
remote control cannot reach the front panel
IR sensor.
EXT: The EXT jack is used with an outboard
IR receiver to duplicate the front panel IR sen-
sor. This feature is useful when the unit is in-
stalled in a cabinet and the front panel sen-
sor is blocked or when IR signals need to be
relayed to other components.
ZONE: The ZONE jack is used with IR repeater
systems to receiver signals from IR control sys-
tems in remote location. For example, remote
control signals sent to the ZONE REM IN control
the ZONE 2 features of the RSX-1067 and can
be relayed to other components.
Consult your authorized Rotel dealer for in-
formation on external receivers and the proper
wiring of a 3.5 mm mini-plugs to fit the REM
IN jacks.
NOTE
: The IR signals from the EXT REMOTE
IN and ZONE REMOTE IN jacks can be re-
layed to source components using external
IR emitters or hard-wired connections from
the IR OUT jacks. See the following section
for additional information.
IR OUT Jacks
The IR OUT 1 & 2 jacks send IR signals re-
ceived at the ZONE REM IN or the EXT REM
IN jacks to an infrared blaster or emitter placed
in front of a source component’s IR sensor. In
addition, the IR OUT can be hard-wired to Rotel
CD players, DVD players, or tuners with a com-
patible connector.
These outputs are used to allow IR signals from
Zone 2 to be sent to the source components,
or to pass along IR signals from a remote in
the main room when the sensors on the source
components are blocked by installation in a
cabinet.
See your authorized Rotel dealer for information
on IR emitters and repeater systems.
Computer I/O
The RSX-1067 can be operated from a com-
puter with audio system control software from
third-party developers. This control is accom-
plished by sending operating codes from the
computer via a hard-wired RS-232 serial con-
nection. In addition, the RSX-1067 can be up-
dated using special software from Rotel.
The COMPUTER I/O input provides the nec-
essary network connections on the rear panel.
It accepts standard RJ-45 8-pin modular plugs,
such as those commonly used in 10-BaseT UTP
Ethernet cabling.
For additional information on the connections,
cabling, software, and operating codes for com-
puter control or updating of the RSX-1067, con-
tact your authorized Rotel dealer.
Making Connections
CD Player
Connect the left and right analog outputs from
the CD player to the AUDIO IN jacks labeled
CD (left and right).
Optional: Connect the digital output of the
CD player to any of the Optical or Coax digital
inputs on the RSX-1067. Use the INPUT SETUP
screen to assign that digital input to the CD
source.
There are no video connections for a CD Player.
DVD Player
DVD connections can be made to the VIDEO
1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 inputs. In elaborate systems,
you may wish to use VIDEO 4 or VIDEO 5
for DVD players, since these inputs do not have
corresponding OUTPUT connections. If you
choose VIDEO 1, make sure that you use
VIDEO 1 inputs and outputs for all analog audio
and video connections.
Connect a video cable (Composite Video,
S-Video, and/or Component Video from the
output of the DVD player to the appropriate
VIDEO IN 1–5 input. If you intend to use the
progressive scan feature with an HDTV moni-
tor, you should use Component Video connec-
tions.
Connect the digital output of the DVD player
to any one of the OPTICAL IN or COAXIAL
IN digital inputs on the RSX-1067. Use the
INPUT SETUP screen to assign that digital in-
put to the same video input source used above.
For example, if you use the Video 4 inputs
above, assign the digital input to the VIDEO
4 input.
If you want to record the audio signal from
the DVD player, connect the left and right
analog outputs from the DVD player to the left
and right AUDIO IN jacks corresponding to
the VIDEO IN input selected above.
