Basic Controls
This section covers the basic operating con-
trols of the RSX-03 and the remote including
power on/off, volume, and muting.
Power and Standby On/Off
The rear panel POWER switch on the RSX-03
is a master power switch. The button must
be in the ON position for the unit to oper-
ate. When it is in the OFF position, the unit
is fully off and cannot be activated from the
front panel or remote control.
In normal operation, the rear panel POWER
switch is always left in the ON position. The
RSX-03 is activated and deactivated using
the front panel STANDBY button, the remote
control POWER button, or the remote ON/
OFF buttons. When activated, the RSX-03 is
fully functional and the front panel display il-
luminated. When deactivated, the unit goes
into a standby mode, with minimal power
applied to the microprocessor.
NOTE
:
When the unit has AC power applied
and the rear panel POWER switch is on, the
front panel STANDBY LED lights, regardless
of whether the unit is in standby mode or
activated.
The front panel STANDBY button and the re-
mote control POWER button function as toggle
switches. Press either button to activate the
unit. Press either button again to put the unit
in standby mode.
The ON/OFF buttons on the remote serve
the same function, but provide discrete ON
(active) or OFF (standby) commands.
There are three available power mode op-
tions, which may be useful in configuring the
RSX-03 for special system configurations. See
the
Other Options
menu in the
Setup
section
of this manual for additional details on chang-
ing the default standby behavior.
