ROTEL RSDX-02e - Manual (Page 32)

32 RSDX-02e DVD Receiver
For most convenient operation of the system,
leave this setting in the default ON setting. You
can still temporarily choose a different surround
mode for an input by pressing the SURROUND
ON/OFF button.
NOTE
: The Auto Surround feature does not
have an effect on analog input signals or when
the DGTL DD or DGTL DTS are manually se-
lected as a fixed surround mode for the DVD
player.
Quick Setup
Selecting this item starts the quick setup pro-
cedure. See the previous Quick Setup topic
in this manual for details.
Automatic Power Mode
(MODE)
The RSDX-02e has a special auto power mode
that will activate the RSDX-02e and select a
source input when a video component is turned
on.
NOTE
: Auto power mode is only available for
video components connected with SCART
cables.
Use the CONTROL buttons to select the
desired auto power mode:
• MANUAL: The default setting. Auto power
mode is not used and the RSDX-02e oper-
ates normally with manual power on/off
and source selection
• AUTO 1: When the RSDX-02e is active,
turning on a video component or starting
VCR playback selects that source input
automatically.
• AUTO 2: Provides automatic source se-
lection and power on/off as follows:
When a video source is turned on or VCR
playback is started and the RSDX-02e is
already active, the correct source input is
selected. If the RSDX-02e is not turned one,
the AUTO 2 mode puts the unit in TV direct
mode and selects the correct video input.
When the selected source component is
turned off and the RSDX-02e is active or
in TV direct mode, the AUTO 2 mode au-
tomatically reverts to the last previously used
source input.

tings for obtaining the best sound from your

ment.

TROL
buttons to shift the sound to the left
or right:
