ROTEL CD Multi-Disc Changer RCC-1055 - Manual (Page 9)

9 English
External Remote Input r
This connector is designed to be used in con-
junction with Xantech™ brand Video Link™
IR signal pick ups (sold separately by custom
system installers). This feature enables you to
operate the RCC-1055 with the hand held
remote control even when it is installed where
it is not visible from your listening location.
Contact your authorized Rotel dealer for more
information.
Video Link and Xantech are Trademarks of
Xantech Corporation.
Remote Control Batteries
The supplied batteries must be installed before
the remote control can be used. Slide the sec-
ondary control cover down until it stops. Then
gently press the small triangular symbol on the
cover and slide the cover down to expose the
battery well. Install the batteries with the terminals
as shown in the illustration in the battery well.
Test the control for proper operation, then slide
the cover back into place. When the batteries
become weak the remote control won’t operate
the RCC-1055 consistently. Installing fresh bat-
teries should eliminate the problem.
NOTE: Remove the batteries from the re-
mote control if it will not be used for a long
period of time. Do not leave run down bat-
teries in the remote control. Exhausted bat-
teries can leak corrosive chemicals which
will damage the unit.
12 Volt Trigger Input e
The RCC-1055 can be activated by a 12 volt
trigger signal. The trigger input accepts any
control signal (AC or DC) ranging from 3 volts
to 30 volts. When a cable is connected to the
12V input and a trigger signal is present,
the RCC-1055 is activated. When the trigger
signal is turned off, the unit goes into standby
mode. The front panel power indicator remains
lit, but the display goes dark and the unit will
not operate.
NOTE: When using the 12V Trigger fea-
ture, leave the POWER button in the ON po-
sition.
Computer I/O Connector
w
The RCC-1055 can be operated from a personal
computer running audio system control software
from third-party developers. This control is
accomplished by sending the operating codes
normally sent by the RR-D92 remote control
over a hard-wired network connection from
the computer.
The COMPUTER I/O input provides the neces-
sary connection on the back panel. It accepts
standard RJ-45 8-pin modular plugs, such
as those commonly used in 10-BaseT UTP
Ethernet cabling.
For additional information on the connections,
software, and operating codes for computer
control of the RCC-1055, contact your autho-
rized Rotel dealer.

Press the Open/Close button on either the front
panel or the remote control to open the Disc
Tray. Place discs in the numbered recesses in
the Disc Carousel with the label sides up. Be
sure the discs are centered in the recesses in

and 8cm discs may be loaded. There is a

loaded into the three disc positions at the front
of the tray. To load discs into the remaining
positions press the Disc Skip button
7]
to rotate the carousel. Press the Open/Close
button again to close the Disc Tray when you
are done loading discs.
NOTE: Do not push the Disc Tray in manu-
ally. Doing so could cause damage. Use the
Open/Close buttons. Do not touch the Disc
Carousel while it is turning or attempt to turn
it by hand, as this also could cause damage.
Use the Disc Skip buttons and let the Disc
Carousel come to a stop before loading or
removing discs.
You can also load discs into the RCC-1055
while a disc is playing. Press the Open/Close
button to open the Disc Tray. Three of the four
disc positions will be available for disc loading.
To access the remaining position press the Disc
Skip button. The disc tray will turn to allow ac-
cess to the remaining disc position. Press the
Open/Close button again to close the Disc
Tray when you are done loading discs.
Disc Skip Buttons 7 and ]
The Disc Skip buttons have two functions. One is
to turn the Disc Carousel when you are loading
discs, as described in the previous section.
NOTE: Do not turn the carousel by hand;
use the Disc Skip button. Do not touch the
carousel while it is turning.
The other function of the Disc Skip button is
to select a disc to be played. The next higher
numbered disc is selected each time the Disc
Skip button is pressed. If disc 5 is selected,
pressing the Disc Skip button selects disc 1.
Pressing the Disc Skip button when a disc is
not playing selects the next disc. If the Disc
Skip button is pressed when a disc is playing,
the RCC-1055 stops playing the current disc,
selects the next disc, and begins playing track
1 of that disc.
Selecting a Disc to Play
In addition to the Disc buttons described
above, the remote control may also be used
to select discs.
Disc 1-5 Buttons s
(remote only)
Press the button that corresponds to the disc
you want to select. Pressing one of the Disc
1-5 buttons when a disc is not playing simply
selects the corresponding disc. If one of the Disc
1-5 buttons is pressed when a disc is playing,
the RCC-1055 stops playing the current disc,
selects the corresponding disc, and begins
playing track 1 of the disc.
