AC Power and Control
AC Power Input o
Your unit is configured at the factory for the proper AC line voltage in
the country where you purchased it (either 120 volts AC or 230 volts AC
with a line frequency of either 50 Hz or 60 Hz). The AC line configuration
is noted on the back panel.
NOTE: Should you move your unit to another country, the unit will
detect and reconfigure for use on a different line voltage. Consult
a qualified service person or the Rotel factory service department
for information.
NOTE: Some products are intended for sale in more than one country
and as such are supplied with more than one AC cord. Please only
use the one appropriate for your country/region.
Because of its relatively high power rating, the unit can draw considerable
current. Therefore, it should be plugged directly into a polarized wall outlet
using the supplied cable or other compatible cable as recommended by
your authorized Rotel dealer. Do not use an extension cord. A heavy duty
multi-tap power outlet strip may be used if it (and the wall outlet) can
handle the current demanded by the unit and all the other components
connected to it.
If you are going to be away from home for an extended period of time
such as a month-long vacation, it is a sensible precaution to unplug your
unit (as well as other audio and video components) while you are away.
Master Power Switch e
The large rocker switch on the rear panel is a master power switch. When
it is in the OFF position, power to the unit is completely off. When it is
in the ON position, the front panel POWER and remote control ON/OFF
buttons can be used to activate the unit or put it into standby mode.
Power Switch
and Power Indicator
1 A
Press the front panel Power Switch button 1 , to turn the unit on. The
Power Indicator light is illuminated when the unit is on. Press Power
Switch button again to turn the unit off.
When the power switch is in the ON position, the remote control
button may be used to activate the RAS-5000. In Standby mode the
power light is red, but the display is turned OFF.
Protection Indicator
The unit has both thermal and over-current protection circuitry that
protects the unit against damage in the event of extreme or faulty
operating conditions. The protection circuits are independent of the audio
signal and have no impact on sonic performance. Instead, the protection
circuits monitor the temperature of the output devices and shut down
the unit if temperatures exceed safe limits.
Most likely, you will never see this protection circuitry in action. However,
should a faulty condition arise, the unit will stop playing and will display
"PROTECTION" on the front panel. The power indicator on the front
panel will turn red.
If this happens, turn the unit off. Let it cool down for several minutes, and
attempt to identify and correct the problem that caused the protection
circuitry to engage. When you turn the unit back on, the protection
circuit will automatically reset and the power indicator should turn blue.
In most cases, the protection circuitry activates because of a fault condition
such as shorted speaker wires, or inadequate ventilation leading to an
overheating condition. In very rare cases, highly reactive or extremely low
impedance speaker loads could cause the protection circuit to engage.
If the protection circuitry triggers repeatedly and you are unable to isolate
and correct the faulty condition, contact your authorized Rotel dealer for
assistance in troubleshooting.
Input Signal Connections
NOTE: To prevent loud noises that neither you nor your speakers
will appreciate, make sure the system is turned off when you make
any signal connections.
AUX Input r
See Figure 3
The Aux input of the streamer is for connecting components such as CD
players or other audio playback devices with an analog audio output.
The Left and Right channels are labeled and should be connected to the
corresponding channels of the source component. The Left connectors
are white, the Right connectors are red. Use high quality RCA cables for
connecting input source components to the unit. Ask your authorized
Rotel dealer for advice about cables.
Digital Inputs 90
See Figure 4
There is one set of digital inputs labeled COAX and OPT respectively.
Connect the COAXIAL or OPTICAL outputs of your source component
2
into these sockets. The digital signals will be decoded and played by the
unit. The unit is capable of decoding PCM signals up to 24 bit, 192kHz.
Output Connections
PRE Output t
The unit has a set of preamp outputs labeled PRE OUT. The currently
selected source input is available from this output. Typically the PRE OUT
output is used to connect to an external power amplifier for either a 2nd
2
zone or to drive higher output power from the unit.
NOTE: Changes to the settings of the Volume, Balance or Tone
controls affect the signal from the PRE OUT output.
SUB Output y
There is a connector for subwoofer output to connect to the subwoofer.
This sub output is summed with both the left and right audio signal. The
subwoofer output is full range relying on the subwoofer to filter the signal.
Headphone Output 3
The headphone output allows you to connect headphones for private
listening. This output accepts a standard 3.5mm (1/8") mini stereo
headphone connector. Plugging in a set of headphones cuts off the
signal to the speakers, Pre output and SUB output.
