RSDX-02 DVD Receiver
Connect the 300 ohm twin-conductor wire from
the loop antenna to the push terminals labeled
AM LOOP, attaching one wire to each termi-
nal. It does not matter which wire attaches to
which terminal, but make sure that the con-
nections are solid and that the two wires do
not touch.
You may need to rotate or otherwise reorient
the antenna to find the best position.
NOTE : To use an outdoor antenna, connect its
300 ohm twin-conductor wire to the termi-
nals in place of the loop antenna.
FM Antenna
See Figure 9
The RSDX-02 is supplied with a T-shaped indoor
FM antenna. Connect the coax F-type plug to
the FM antenna connector on the RSDX-02. For
best reception, unfold the T-shaped antenna.
Eyelets at both ends of the T allow tacking the
antenna to a wall, if desired. Experiment with
positioning for best reception.
NOTE : To use an outdoor antenna, connect its
75 ohm coax lead wire to the FM connector
instead of the indoor wire antenna, only af-
ter a professional contractor has installed the
antenna system in accordance with local elec-
trical codes.
AC Input
Your RSDX-02 is configured at the factory for
the proper AC line voltage in the country where
you purchased it (USA: 115 volts/60Hz AC
or CE: 230 volts /50 Hz AC ). The AC line
configuration is noted on a decal on the back
of your unit.
Plug the supplied cord into the AC INPUT
receptacle on the back of the unit. Then, plug
the power cord into an AC wall outlet.
NOTE : Memorized settings and video labels
are preserved indefinitely, even if the RSDX-02
is disconnected from AC power.
OPERATING THE RSDX-02
Considering its large number of features, the
RSDX-02 is easy to operate.
The RSDX-02 can be operated from the front
panel or the remote control. Front panel con-
trols are simple to use, with just a few buttons,
some of which guide you through menu op-
tions. The remote control provides more com-
plete control options.
This section of the manual starts with explain-
ing the basic layout and function of the front
panel and the remote control. Then, we ex-
plain the basic operations such as turning the
unit on and off, adjusting volume, selecting a
source for listening, etc. Following this are
sections covering the operation of the built-in
DVD player and AM/FM tuner.
Throughout this manual, numbers in gray boxes
refer to the RSDX-02 illustration at the front of
this manual. Letters refer to the RR-1070 re-
mote illustration. When both appear, the func-
tion is found on both the RSDX-02 and the re-
mote. When only one appears, that function
is found only on the RSDX-02 or the remote.
