ABOUT THE RT-10

Thank you for purchasing the RT-10 Disc Player, a reference-quality universal disc transport designed to provide superior audio and video performance with virtually any 3- or 5-inch optical media disc format. Based on leading-edge DVD and SACD research, the RT-10 supports DVD-V, DVD-A, DVD-RW/R, SACD, Audio CD, CD-RW/R, Video CD, and SVCD formats. It delivers exceptional sound quality with Dolby Digital, DTS, and PCM (Linear or Packed) digital audio sources. In addition, it supports most MPEG video and MP3 audio sources.

With rear panel connectors befitting a reference-quality player, the RT-10 includes the standard composite and S-video output connectors, as well as progressive-scan component video output on RCA or professional-grade BNC connectors. High-precision 12-bit/ 108MHz D/A converters provide a pristine video image without degradation during analog conversion. Progressive-scan component video output converts interlaced video signals to progressive video signals, doubling the amount of video information sent to a compatible display device. The result is a higher quality, more stable image with fewer video artifacts.

Video Adjust allows for exact, detailed adjustment of video settings such as Pure Cinema, sharpness, white, black, gamma, hue, and chroma levels, as well as luminance (YNR), chrominance (CNR), mosquito (MNR), and black (BNR) noise reduction. Pure Cinema automatically converts film sources recorded at 24 frames-persecond to 60 frames-per-second to create a more natural picture. The RT-10 offers six banks of Video Adjust settings, including three preset banks for CRT, plasma, and professional display devices and three memory banks for storage of user-defined Video Adjust settings.

Digital audio sources are available on S/PDIF or analog audio output connectors. Three digital audio output connectors – one S/PDIF coaxial, one S/PDIF optical, and one AES/EBU – allow for external decoding and processing of Dolby Digital, DTS, and PCM (Linear or Packed) sources. Alternatively, built-in 24-bit/192kHz D/A converters on all six analog audio output connectors allow highbandwidth formats such as DVD-A and SACD to deliver smooth, expansive analog sound without sample rate conversion and digital word length reduction.

Setup is simplified with color on-screen display menus that can be customized for the desired level of control. The Setup Navigator provides step-by-step guidance through the process of configuring minimum settings. When activated, it presents a series of questions that, when answered, allow the RT-10 to implement the correct audio, video, and language settings.

The Setup menu provides access to more advanced controls. Available in basic and expert display modes, the Setup menu can be customized to include controls that are required to configure the most common settings or to include all controls that are available. In addition, the RT-10 allows the creation of up to five shortcuts, which provide convenient access to frequently adjusted controls without navigating through the entire Setup menu.

Built to Lexicon standards, the RT-10 represents a solid investment that promises to complement the finest home theaters. With its extensive compatibility, the RT-10 is sure to deliver exceptional performance whether watching the latest blockbuster on DVD or listening to a remix of an old favorite on SACD. Even the most demanding enthusiast will be impressed with its unbeatable combination of technology, flexibility, and simplicity.

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

The RT-10 requires special care during installation to ensure optimal performance. Pay particular attention to the bulleted items that begin below and to other precautions that appear throughout this user guide.

Before moving the RT-10, make sure the disc drawer is empty and the RT-10 is powered off with the front panel On/Off button. Then, make sure the power cord is disconnected from the wall outlet and that other cables are disconnected from associated components.

Never lift or move the RT-10 during playback. Discs rotate at high speeds inside the player. Movement might damage the disc and the player.

CAUTION

DO . . .

• Install the RT-10 on a solid, flat, level surface such as a table or shelf or in a standard 19-inch equipment rack. An optional rack-mount kit is available from authorized Lexicon dealers.

• Select a dry, well-ventilated location out of direct sunlight.

. . . Installation Considerations continues on page 1-4

Note:

The RT-10 lens should not become dirty or damaged from regular use. However, if malfunction occurs, contact an authorized Lexicon dealer for assistance. Do not attempt to clean the lens with a commercially available DVD or CD lens cleaner, as some of these products might damage the RT-10 lens.

DVD-V REGIONS

The map shown below indicates DVD-V region codes for all areas of the world. All DVD-Vs are marked with a region code, which is often located on the disc packaging. The RT-10 rear panel is also marked with a region code. The RT-10 is compatible with discs marked with this same region code or with the ALL region code. The RT-10 is not compatible with discs marked with other region codes.

Installation Considerations (continued from page 1-3)

DO NOT . . .

• Install the RT-10 on a surface that is unstable or unable to support all four of its feet (unless the RT-10 is installed in an equipment rack).

• Stack the RT-10 directly above heat-producing components such as power amplifiers and other stereo equipment that generate heat during use. Avoid installing the RT-10 near radiators and other heat-producing appliances.

• Expose the RT-10 to high temperatures, direct sunlight, humidity, steam, smoke, dampness, and excessive dust.

• Install the RT-10 near unshielded TV or FM antennas, cable TV decoders, and other RF emitting devices that might cause interference. Replace unshielded cables with shielded cables whenever possible.

• Prevent proper cooling. Do not block or cover ventilation slots and openings on the RT-10 with items such as newspapers, cloths, and curtains. Do not place the RT-10 on a thick carpet, bed, sofa, or fabric with a thick pile.

• Expose the RT-10 to sudden or drastic temperature changes, as this might cause condensation to form on the RT-10 lens. Although condensation will not damage the RT-10, it might temporarily impair performance. If this occurs, allow at least 1 hour for condensation to evaporate before attempting to load a disc.

• Obstruct the front panel display remote control sensor when the RT-10 is not using the IR input connector. If the RT-10 is not using the IR IN connector, the remote control must be in lineof-sight with the front panel display remote control sensor. Refer to page 2-14 for more information.

When a component video output connection is not possible, it is recommended to use an S-video output connection, which provides better picture quality than a composite video output connection. All versions offer S-video output on an S-video output connector.

S-video cables can be difficult to connect. Because these cable plugs are keyed, it is important to insert them with the proper orientation to the connector. Make sure the cable plug is properly aligned with the connector before the cable plug is inserted. In addition, make sure the cable plug is fully inserted for a solid connection.

When neither a component nor S-video output connection is possible, use a composite video output connection. All versions offer composite video output on an RCA connector. Some versions also offer composite video output on a Euro or Peritel (TV A/V) connector (below).

Euro or Peritel (TV A/V) Connections

Some versions include a Euro or Peritel (TV A/V) connector that offers composite, S-video, or RGB video and two channels of audio output on a SCART connector labeled TV A/V CONNECTOR. When making this connection, use a 21-pin male-to-male SCART cable with a SCART plug on both ends. The Video Out parameter (3-27) controls video output format when the RT-10 is using the Euro or Peritel (TV A/V) connector. Refer to the table and illustration at the top of the next page for more information.

Whenever possible, it is recommended to use a component video output connection. All versions offer component video output on a group of RCA or BNC connectors. Some versions also offer component video output on a Mini D Ribbon connector. Refer to the table and illustration above for more information about the Mini D Ribbon connector.

Progressive-scan component video output is available on all component video output connectors. Compared to interlaced video signals, progressive-scan video signals double the amount of video information sent to a compatible display device. For highest picture quality, it is recommended to use a progressive-scan compatible display device.

When making these connections, use standard audio cables with RCA plugs on each end. The Audio Out parameter (3-16) can be used to configure these connectors to provide 2- or 5.1-channel analog audio output.

The analog audio output connectors are color-coded to match the cable plugs. Make sure the cable plugs are fully inserted for a solid connection.

DVD-A & SACD Connections

An analog audio output connection is required for SACD and recommended for DVD-A playback. When DVD-A sources are sent to the digital audio output connectors, multi-channel signals are downmixed and high sample rates of 176.4 or 192kHz are downsampled to 44.1, 48, 88.2, or 96kHz. The downsampled rate differs from disc to disc.

Digital Audio Connections

All versions offer digital audio output on S/PDIF coaxial, S/PDIF optical, and XLR (AES/EBU) connectors. The AES/EBU connector offers S/PDIF digital audio output with AES/EBU electrical characteristics.

Select the setting that includes all digital audio sources with which the associated component is compatible. The RT-10 will convert all other digital audio signals to PCM signals before passing them to the associated component. With the exception of the Not

Connected setting, all Digital Jack prompt settings assume the associated component is compatible with PCM signals.

For example, the MC-12 and MC-8 Digital Controllers are compatible with Dolby Digital, DTS, and PCM digital audio sources. If the RT-10 is connected to one of these components, select the Dolby Digital/DTS setting. The RT-10 will pass Dolby Digital, DTS, and PCM signals directly to the MC-12 or MC-8. The RT-10 will convert all other digital audio signals (i.e. MPEG) to PCM before passing them to the MC-12 or MC-8.

Associated components that are NOT compatible with DTS sources will output DTS noise when all of the following conditions are met:

• A DTS source is present.

• The Digital Jack prompt is set to Dolby Digital/DTS or Dolby D/DTS/MPEG OR the DTS Out parameter is set to DTS.

Setting Speaker Sizes (continued)

Note the following:

• The SW parameter determines the presence or absence of a subwoofer. Select On if a subwoofer is present. The RT-10 will pass subwoofer signals and LFE signals for which the corresponding Speaker Size parameter is set to Small to the Sub analog audio output connector. Select Off if no subwoofer is present. The RT-10 will not redirect LFE signals to other analog audio output connectors.

• When speaker size parameters are set to Off, the corresponding speaker distance parameters cannot be adjusted.

• The L/R parameter size setting cannot be adjusted. This parameter has a fixed Large setting to provide full-range audio output through the front left and right channels.

• Because surround speakers must be the same size, the LS and RS parameters cannot be set to different sizes. When the setting of one parameter is adjusted, the setting of the other parameter is automatically adjusted at the same time.

Setting Speaker Distances

The Speaker Distance screen shown at the top of the previous page can be used to set speaker distances for the front, center, surround, and subwoofer speakers.

• The L/R distance parameter setting affects all other speaker

distance parameter settings. The C and SW parameters must be set within 6.5 feet (2m) of the L/R parameter, and the LS and RS parameters must be set within 20 feet (6m) of the L/R parameter.

• When the L/R parameter setting is increased, other parameter

settings automatically increase in 0.5-foot increments within their respective ranges. Likewise, when the L/R parameter setting is decreased, other parameter settings automatically decrease in 0.5-foot increments within their respective ranges.

• It is recommended to select the closest available setting when

the subwoofer distance falls outside the SW parameter range. This should not affect surround cohesion.

Gain Setting Fix, Variable

Controls front, center, surround, and subwoofer channel output levels when the RT-10 is using the 5.1-channel analog audio output connectors. This parameter setting has no effect when the RT-10 is using the 2-channel analog audio output connectors or digital audio output connector.

Selecting Fix configures all channels to pass audio at its relative recorded volume level. Selecting Variable opens the Gain Setting screens, which can be used to adjust output levels within a –6.0 to +6.0dB range.

Note the following:

• The Gain Setting parameter setting has no effect when the CD Digital Direct parameter (3-24) is set to On and a CD source is present.

• When Variable is selected, output levels can be calibrated for the analog audio output connectors. Variable output levels do not affect the digital audio output connector.

• In some cases, variable output levels might sound quieter than fixed output levels.

Before output level calibration begins:

• It is recommended to use a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) meter to calibrate variable output levels. An SPL meter is a device that measures the relative loudness of each speaker to ensure accurate output level calibration. SPL meters are available at Radio Shack (catalog no. 33-2050).

Note:

RT-10 variable output levels do not need to be configured when the RT-10 is connected to an associated component such as the MC-12 or MC-8 Digital Controller, which allows output levels to be calibrated for analog audio sources.

When DVD_2 is selected, the RT-10 can be operated with an RT-10 remote control to which the DVD_2 command mode is also assigned.

Assigning Remote Control Command Modes

The RT-10 remote control can be used to operate two RT-10s installed in the same system when the DVD_1 command mode is assigned to one RT-10 and the DVD_2 command mode is assigned to the other RT-10. These command modes can also be assigned to the remote control, allowing the remote control to operate an RT-10 to which the same command mode is assigned. The remote control cannot be used to operate an RT-10 to which a different command mode is assigned, except to configure Advanced Setup menu parameter settings.

Note:

The DVD_1 command mode is intended for use when two RT-10s are installed in the same system. Otherwise, avoid assigning the DVD_1 command mode to the RT-10 and the RT-10 remote control.

When one RT-10 is installed in the system, follow the instructions in the next column to assign the DVD_2 command mode to the remote control and the RT-10. The DVD_2 command mode is assigned to the RT-10 when factory-default settings are restored. The command mode assigned to the remote control is not affected when factory-default settings are restored.

When two RT-10s are installed in the same system, follow the instructions below to assign the DVD_1 command mode to one RT-10 and the DVD_2 command mode to the other RT-10. Follow the instructions below to toggle the command mode assigned to the remote control, allowing the remote control to provide independent operation of both RT-10s.

To assign the DVD_2 command mode to the remote control:

Press and hold the remote control STOP and number 2 buttons for about 5 seconds.

To assign the DVD_1 command mode to the remote control:

Press and hold the remote control STOP and number 1 buttons for about 5 seconds.
