Connecting the Speakers

Speakers

There are 6 speakers equipped with the unit (2 front, 1 center, 2 rear, 1 subwoofer). In order to enjoy good surround effects all six speakers need to be connected to the receiver

For better sound quality, Center speaker, rear speakers and Subwoofer should also be connected. Adding center and rear speakers will enhance surround effects. Adding a Subwoofer will increase bass response.

If you want to enjoy full range of sound effects, it is a must to use the subwoofer with the speakers to maintain adequate bass signal.

Speaker cords

1 for each speaker, is needed for connection. Twist the stripped ends of speaker cord about 2/3 inch (15 mm). Press down on the tab to open the terminal and insert the wire. Snap the tab closed.

To ease speaker connections, the speaker cords and the terminals are color-coded.

• Red/Black (Front Speakers),

• Blue/Black (Center Speaker)

• Grey/Black (Rear Speakers).

• Brown/Black (Subwoofer)

Connect the speaker wire (red/black wire) to the back of L, R front speakers (red / black terminals) and to the corresponding color terminals on the rear of the receiver. Do the same for center speaker (with blue/black terminal), rear speakers (with grey/black terminals) and the subwoofer (with brown/black terminal).

Speaker Polarity

When connecting the speakers, make sure the polarities (“+” speaker wire to “+” on the receiver) of speaker wires and terminals are matched. If the cords are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack bass (“out of phase” effect).

Connecting the Subwoofer

Connect the subwoofer with the speaker wire (brown/ black) provided.

Getting Started

Positioning your speaker

1 Left, Right (Front Speakers)

They carry primarily music and sound effects

2 Center

In surround mode, the center speaker carries much of the dialogue as well as music and effects. It should be set between the left and right speakers.

3 Surround (Rear Speakers)

Their overall sound balance should be as close as possible to the front speakers. Proper placement is vital to establish an evenly distributed sound field.

Subwoofer

A subwoofer is designed to reproduce powerful low bass effects (explosions, the rumble of spaceships, etc.) which dramatically heightens involvement with the action on the screen. It is therefore recommended to connect subwoofers when small speakers are used.

Magnetic shielding

Speakers placed less than two feet from the TV set must be magnetically shielded in order to prevent picture distortion. Front and center speakers provided with RTDVD1 are magnetically shielded to protect your TV set.

It is not recommended to place the rear speakers near the TV set.

Front Speaker Placement

Even if you can't duplicate this ideal home theater setup exactly, the suggestions for speaker placement that follow will help you get good results.

Alignment

Align the center speaker evenly with (A), or slightly behind (B), the left and right speakers, but not ahead of them.

Advanced Setting

Angle

Placing the left and right speakers to form a 45-degree angle with your favorite viewing position will duplicate the soundtrack mixer's perspective.

Height

The mid- and high-frequency drivers of the three front speakers should be as close as possible to the same height. This often requires placing the center speaker directly atop (A) or beneath (B) the TV set.

Getting Started

Preferred surround placement

Location

If possible, place surround speakers to either side of the listening area, not behind it.

Height

If space permits, install surrounds 2-3 feet above viewers. This helps to minimize localization effects.

Aiming

Aiming surrounds straight across the room, not down at viewers, helps create a more open, spacious surround sound field.

Advanced Setting Alternative Surround Placement

Rear wall

If rear wall mounting is the only choice, aim the speakers at each other (A), towards the front (B) or even towards the sidewalls (C, D). Experiment with placement until surround sounds seem to envelop you, rather than coming from behind you.

No adjacent walls

Surrounds can go on stands facing each other to approximate the preferred sidewall mounting (A), or to the sides or rear of the viewing area aimed upwards. In the latter case, they can go right on the floor, or preferably, a few feet off the floor such as on end tables (B).

Test Tone / Channel balance

Channel balance

Your receiver is equipped with a test signal generator for balancing the channels. As the signal "travels" from channel to channel, adjust the level controls until each channel plays at the same loudness level. (details see operation of test/setup)

Level adjustment & surround channel level expectation

Even though you adjust the surround channel to be as loud as the others on the test signal, you'll find that on actual program material the surround channel is usually much lower than the front. Don't be tempted to readjust the surround level; program producers use surround mostly for subtle atmosphereics and ambience, and only rarely for special effects. A good surround mix doesn't call attention to itself; if it did, it would soon become distracting.

Connecting for Power

Make sure you connect all your other electronic components and the speakers before plugging your receiver into the outlet. Plug the power cord in the wall outlet, matching the wide blade of the plug with the wide slot in the outlet. Be sure to insert the plug completely.

Using Headphones

To listen privately through your audio system, use the PHONES jack on the receiver. However, make sure you turn down the volume before you put on the headphones. Increase the volume to the desired level after headphones are in place.

Once headphones are connected, “HEADPHONE DOWNMIX 2 CHANNEL” will scroll on display. This feature automatically converts multi-channel outputs to 2 channel stereo for your listening pleasure.

Hearing Comfort & Well-Being

• Do not play your headset at a high volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous extended play.

• If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.

Factory Setting

The RTDVD1 is preset to the following setting when you first turn on the power Source = DVD/CD Volume setting = 45 dB

Bass & Treble = 0 dB

Restore to Factory Settings

You can always restore all settings back to its original state. When the receiver is in STANDBY mode, press accordingly on the main unit to restore all settings back to factory default : PRESET - PRESET + BASS/TREBLE

NOTE

The system is equipped with Dolby Digital, and manufactured under License from Dolby Laboratories.

Operating your Receiver

You can connect up to 2 audio/video sources to this amplifier:

Source button Corresponding connector (remote control) (receiver back panel)

- DVD/CD built-in

- FM/AM built-in

- SAT SAT IN (audio / video)

- VCR VCR IN (audio / video)

When a source is selected, the source name will be shown on the display.

Example: Press VCR to select VCR as the source to the amplifier.

Using the Remote to Control Additional Components

You can set your remote to control other components (like TV, VCR, etc.). What you need is to encode them in advance (not necessary for recent RCA & Proscan models).

1. Turn on the component to be programmed.

2. Look up the brand and corresponding code number in the code list from page 42 to 44.

3. Press and hold the corresponding Source Button (like VCR1, SAT/CABLE, TV) on the remote while entering the code from the code list using the Number Buttons.

4. Release the component button, then press ON•OFF to see if the component will turn off.

5. If this does not work, repeat steps 3 and 4 by trying to use the next code (if available) listed for the brand of your component until the component responds to the remote command.

NOTE

Once your remote is encoded, you can press ON/OFF on the remote once to turn off the component and then followed by the second time quickly to turn off the receiver (i.e. this unit). If you only want the receiver to be turned off, select FM/ AM while the unit is ON before pressing ON/OFF.

HINT

This remote may not operate all models of the brands shown.

If batteries are removed from the battery compartment of the remote control, all memory will be lost. You need to re-enter all previously programmed codes again.

The buttons on the remote may not work correspondingly with those on other brand components. Experiment with the remote and your components to see which buttons work. If only a few functions operate, check to see if another code set will work with more buttons.

14

NOTE

1. Your receiver has a built in tuner. Just connect the appropriate antenna on the back of the receiver and you will be able to listen to radio stations. (See details in Tuner section)

2. The receiver is also equipped with DVD/CD player. Press the SOURCE button on the main unit or DVD button on the remote to activate the feature.

3. Other sources can be connected to this unit (VCR, SAT etc).

4. Refer to the "Connecting To Audio-Visual Components" section for details on connection.

Advanced Sound Control

Sound Enhancement Systems

This receiver is equipped with several built-in sound enhancement systems.

Dolby Pro Logic II and Dolby 3 Stereo

The Pro Logic II mode uses the built-in circuit to steer the Left, Center, Right and Surround left and right channel audio signals and uses all five speakers to play both stereo and Dolby Pro Logic program source, such as TV and VCR. Dolby Pro Logic II includes Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, Dolby Pro Logic II Music and Dolby Pro Logic.

Use this mode to suit the type of program (such as VCR).

This surround system reproduces theater-like surround sound from Dolby-encoded software. The 3 Stereo mode will redirect the Surround signals to the front left and right speakers when only the front and center speakers are used.

Dolby Digital

The Dolby Digital mode lets you enjoy full digital surround from software processed in the Dolby Digital format. Dolby Digital provides better sound quality and more powerful presence than conventional Dolby Surround.

This unit is equipped with Dolby Digital 5.1-channel so that you can enjoy enhanced full digital surround sound. Being different from Dolby Pro Logic in which only four channels ( Front Left, Front Right, Centre and Rear ) are used, the new system provides stereo separation of the rear speakers (Rear-Right, Rear-Left ). These 5 channels, together with the subwoofer channel for bass sounds ( counted as

0.1 channel ), constitute as 5.1-Channel ( or 6 Channels ) Input for Dolby Digital that brings you the most sophisticated sound enjoyment.

Advanced Sound Control

Stereo

The Stereo mode uses the two main channel outputs from the front speakers.

DSP (Digital Sound Processor)

These digital sound effects resemble sounds in a real environment such as Arena, Jazz, Theater, Stadium and Disco. DSP automatically converts analog audio signals to digital ones which enables you to adjust the sound without degrading the sound quality. Different modes will give you different feel of size and type of listening environment. (Not available in Dolby Digital (DVD))

Night Mode

By using Dynamic Range Compression technology (pressing SHIFT and OK), you can enjoy enhanced Dolby Digital sound quality at night without interrupting your roommates or neighbors. Night Mode will compress the difference in volume between normal voices and sound like explosions, while still enjoying a Dolby Digital enable component (DVD, SAT). Night Mode can be activated by pressing the SHIFT button then the OK button repeatedly until NORMAL appears on the display. While Normal is still on the display, press the LEFT or RIGHT Adjustment buttons on the remote control,around the OK button, on the remote control until you select the desired mode. Night mode can also be activated by pressing the AUDIO button, then OK button repeatedly then LEFT or RIGHT Adjustment buttons. There are three modes (NORMAL, SOFT, SOFTER) for you to choose the extents of compression.

Fine Setting of the Components

The receiver has pre-selected the best surround mode for you once you turn on the unit by pressing the SOURCE Buttons (like DVD/CD, SAT) directly. The default surround modes for different components are as tabled below. If you decide to change the surround mode, you can press the SURROUND repeatedly to toggle among the different surround mode choices and select the one you want.

For Digital Signal (2ch PCM), or analog signal , VCR1, Tuner:

Dolby PL II Movie Dolby PL II Music Dolby PL Dolby 3 Stereo Arena Jazz Theater Stadium Disco Stereo

For Digital Signal (Dolby Digital)

Dolby Digital Dolby 3 Stereo Stereo

Default Settings

The receiver will keep the last selection in memory as long as it doesn’t enter standby mode.

Input Signal Setting

The receiver defaults to the most convenient settings for your easiest use (see table).

By default, SAT (satellite) is set to analog input. If you wish to change the input formats, follow the steps below:

1. Press SOURCE on the main unit until SAT appears on the display or press the SAT source buttons on the remote control.

2. Press DIGITAL on the remote control to toggle among optical/ coaxial/ analog to match your connection. Your selection will be stored automatically.

Every time you press the source button, the input setting (e.g. SAT/ ANL) will be shown on display for a few seconds.

Digital Input: Coaxial (COAX) / Optical (OPT)

Select this setting to play digital signals from a DVD, CD, LD player, or SAT. (SAT mode only)

CAUTION!

DO NOT CONNECT A LD PLAYER WITH RF COAXIAL OUTPUT TO YOUR COAXIAL INPUT.

Analog Input

Select this setting to play analog signals from a cassette deck, VCR or SAT.

Advanced Sound Control

Fine Setting of the Speakers

If you use all the speakers provided, all the basic settings have been set.

However, to make the surround sound more effective and suit the acoustic conditions in your listening room, you need to delay the signal from some of the speakers. Such channel delay compensates for center or surround speakers that are closer to listening position than the front speakers. You can make use of the SOURCE button to adjust the speakers’ relative loudness.

The TEST button

Recommend to set the surround to one of the Dolby setting so that all speakers will be selected. To activate the Test Tone, press and hold the SURROUND button. A short noise will be heard in each speaker one by one. The speaker producing the noise at that moment will flash on the Speaker icon and be displayed on the VFD. The speaker being displayed can then be adjusted by using the LEFT or RIGHT arrows on the remote to desired level. To get out of Test Tone, just press SURROUND button and the setting will be saved.

Advanced Setting

Factory Default Setting

The receiver speaker distance default settings are the following:

Front speakers (L/R) 15 ft Center speaker (Cch) 15 ft Rear speaker (SUR) 10 ft

Speaker Configurations

You can also change the delay of the speakers by pressing and holding the SOURCE button. Available Selections:

Pressing SOURCE repeatedly while the display is still showing speaker distance setup. Set speaker selections or speakers’ distance by pressing PRESET +/ PRESET - on the main unit or the LEFT / RIGHT arrows on the remote control.

Front Speaker distance 3-40 ft Center Speaker distance 0-40 ft Rear Speaker distance 0-40 ft

NOTE

• Always use the subwoofer for optimum sound quality.

Speaker Icons

The receiver shows you the speakers’ settings on the display with the following icons:

Displaying Program Formats

When a digital source is playing, the receiver will automatically switch to the proper surround mode and indicates on the speaker icons on the right-hand side of the display. (See diagram)

It is important to note, however, that not all Dolby Digital sources are encoded with the full complement of five channels plus LFE*. Speaker icons show how many and which speaker you have enabled (See “Fine Setting of the Speakers”) and the letters inside the speaker icons show which channel is present in the source information. For example, the diagram shown means you have all the five speakers and subwoofer enabled and the digital sources you played have five channels plus LFE complemented. (Dolby Digital 5.1 Channels)

* LFE stands for Low Frequency Effect. The indication “LFE” appears if the digital source contains LFE information. In this case, the bass signal will be delivered to the subwoofer, offering more dynamic deep bass sound effects. If the letter

is flashing, the signal is either too weak or just gone.

MP3 Recommendations

• Use .mp3 as the extension when converting audio files into MP3 for saving onto CD-R(W) or CD-ROM, e.g. Rocky08.mp3. Do not use any other extension e.g. .doc, .pdf.

• Do not use the .mp3 extension for other text or non-audio data files as this may result in serious malfunction and harmful noise interference.

• Many common CD creator softwares can make files compatible for the system but do not forget to finalize your disc after creation. This set cannot read DirectCD recordings.

•In order to get audio CD quality, you need to record your MP3 CD at 128 kbps. You can record up to 256 kbps. Beyond 256 kbps, the unit might not read the CD.

• Do not combine CD Audio and MP3 tracks onto a CD-R(W) or CD-ROM. The player will only playback CD audio tracks from mixed CD formats.

NOTE

• ID3 tag (Album, song, artist name) is not supported.

• If over 400 items (songs/folders) are on the disc, only the first 400 songs can be played.

• Resume function does not operate in MP3 mode.

NOTE

If the CD is a MP3 audio CD, reading may take up to 2 minutes.

Troubleshooting Tips

Power

No power ?

• Correctly connect the AC Power Cord to an AC Outlet.

Power is switching off automatically ?

• If the player is not used, i.e. no key pressed for 30 minutes, it automatically switches to standby (Auto Power Off). Press the SOURCE key to switch the player on again.

The keys do not activate the functions they control (unit and / or remote control).

• Set the STANDBY key to OFF (light on) and back to ON again. Alternatively, turn off the power, disconnect the power plug and then re-connect it (The player may not be operating properly due to lightning, static electricity or some other external factors).

• If keys still do not activate the functions they control even when the above mentioned corrective actions are taken, contact your RCA retailer.

Video and audio

There is no picture ?

• Turn on the TV set.

• Check connections.

• Make the correct input selection on the TV set.

The picture is distorted or shakes during search, forward or reverse.

• Search, forward or reverse playback generates a slight distortion, but this is not a malfunction.

There is no sound or it can hardly be heard ?

• Make sure the speakers are connected.

• Make sure the MUTE button is not on.

• Check connections.

• Make the correct audio input selection and volume adjustment on the TV set or hifi system (e.g. AV selector).

• There is no sound during a pause (still picture), still picture advance, or slow playback.

• Disc is defaulted to DTS.

No "Surround" sound ?

• Check speaker configuration in the menu.

Noise interference appears on the TV, while watching a TV program and the DVD player is left on ?

• Turn off DVD player.

• The TV is too close to the audio system.

Volume level differences playing different disc types (DVDs, audio / video CDs).

• Adjust the master volume .

No audio from one channel.

• Check the speaker level setting.

• Check the speaker wire or cable connections.

Remote control

The remote control does not work ?

• Load the batteries with their polarities (+ and –) aligned correctly.

• Batteries are low. Replace with new ones.

• Point the remote control to the front of the player.

• Operate the remote control within an 26 ft range from the player.

• Remove any obstacles between the remote control and the red LED on the player.

The invalid icon appears on-screen ?

• When invalid icon appears on-screen, it indicates that you have pressed the wrong key, because :

1. The DVD’s does not allow it.

2. The DVD's does not propose this option /e.g., angles.

3. The function is not available on that part of the disc.

4. You have requested a title or chapter number or search time that is not available.

TV or video recorder cannot be operated with the remote control.

• Not all models can be operated with the supplied universal remote control.

No picture or the picture shown is not that of the DVD player.

• Switch off the other video device connected to the AV jack of the player.

Playback

Playback does not start when the PLAY key is pressed ?

• Make sure that the disc (single sided) is loaded correctly with the title label facing up.

• Make sure you are in the proper source mode.

Playback stops immediately after the PLAY key is pressed ?

• This player can play DVDs, Video CDs and Audio and MP3 CDs only, check that your disc corresponds to one of these formats.

• If the disc is dirty, wipe it with a soft and clean cloth.

• Condensation occurred inside the player. Leave it at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours.

Disc cannot be played.

• Wipe the disc clean.

• Use a RCA lens cleaner.

• The disc's region No. differs from your player's region No.

Search forward & reverse playback does not work ?

• Some DVDs have segments where search forward & reverse playback functions do not work.

Troubleshooting Tips

40

Subtitle, language, camera angle etc.

Disc menu operation and contents may differ from disc to disc. Please refer to the instructions accompanying the disc.

There are no subtitles ?

• Check that the subtitle is recorded on the disc.

• Subtitles disappear from the TV screen. See page 21 to display subtitles.

Subtitle (or language) setting cannot be changed ?

• The disc being played has been recorded in only one language.

• Depending on the type of DVD, some segments limit language selection.

The picture is not displayed in the correct format on the TV (4 x 3 or 16 x 9)

• According to your TV, make the correct "TV Screen" setting in the set-up menu (page 29).

The camera angle cannot be changed with the angle button ?

• This function does not work when a DVD has not been recorded with a multi-camera angle system. Some DVDs use a multi-camera angle system only in certain portions of the DVD.

Care and Maintenance

Disconnect the audio system from the power source before performing any maintenance.

Cleaning

Clean the exterior of the system using a soft dust cloth.

The player

CAUTION! This system operates with a laser. It must be opened by only a qualified technician.

• Never move the player during playback.

• Never put more than one discs on a tray or put a disc slipping out of the guide area.

Handling discs

• Do not touch the signal surfaces.

• Hold discs by the edges, or by one edge and the hole.

• Do not affix labels or adhesive tapes to the label surfaces.

• Do not scratch or damage the label. Discs rotate at high speeds inside the player.

• Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.

Cleaning discs

• Dirty discs can cause poor sound and visual quality. Always keep discs clean by wiping them gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge toward the outer perimeter. Never wipe the disc in a circular motion since circular scratches are likely to occur and could cause noise during playback.

• If a disc becomes dirty, wet a soft cloth in water, wring it out well, wipe the dirt away gently, and then remove any water drops with a dry cloth.

• Do not use record cleaning sprays or antistatic agents on discs. Also, never clean discs with benzene, thinner, or other volatile solvents which may cause damage to disc surface

Disc lens care

• When your disc lens gets dirty it can also cause the system to output poor sound and visual quality. To clean the lens you will need to purchase a disc lens cleaner which can maintain the output sound and visual quality of your system. For instructions on cleaning the disc lens, refer to the ones accompanying the lens cleaner.

Important battery information

• Remove the batteries to avoid leakage if you do not use your remote control for more than one month.

• Discard leaky batteries immediately as leaking batteries may cause skin burns or other personal injuries.

• Dispose of batteries in the proper manner, according to provincial and local regulations.

• Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a different battery type, if inserted incorrectly, if all batteries are not replaced at the same time, if disposed of in fire, or if an attempt is made to charge a battery not intended to be recharged.

Safety precautions

• Never open the cabinet under any circumstances. Any repairs or internal adjustments should be made only by a trained technician.

• Never operate this product with the cabinet removed.

• Do not touch the player with wet hands. If any liquid enters the player cabinet, take the player to a trained technician for inspection.

• This player uses a laser to read the data on the disc. The laser mechanism corresponds to the cartridge and stylus of a record player. Although this product incorporates a laser pick-up lens, it is completely safe when operated according to directions.

• Discs rotate at high speed inside the player. Do not use damaged, warped, or cracked discs.

• Do not touch the pick-up lens which is located inside the disc compartment. Also, to keep dust from collecting on the pick-up lens do not leave the compartment door open for an extended period of time. If the lens becomes dirty, clean it with a soft brush, or use an air blower brush designed for camera lenses.

Headset safety

• Do not play your headset at a high volume. Hearing experts warn against extended high-volume play.

• If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.

• You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.

• Even if your headset is an open-air type designed to let you hear outside sounds, don’t turn up the volume so high that you are unable to hear what is around you.
