These outputs are used to allow IR signals from the three remote zones
to be sent to the source components, or to pass along IR signals from a
remote in the main room when the sensors on the source components are
blocked by installation in a cabinet.
See your authorized Rotel dealer for information on IR emitters and
repeater systems.

Computer I/O

y
This Rotel unit can be operated from a computer with audio system
control software from third-party developers. This control is accomplished
by sending operating codes from the computer via a hard-wired RS-
232 serial connection. In addition, the RSP-1570 can be updated using
special software from Rotel.
The COMPUTER I/O input provides the necessary network connections
on the rear 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, cabling, software, and
operating codes for computer control or updating of the unit, contact
your authorized Rotel dealer.

MAKING CONNECTIONS

CD Player

w
See Figure 9
Connect the digital output of the CD player to any of the Optical or Coax
digital inputs on the processor. Use the INPUT SETUP menu to assign the
digital input to the CD (the default is COAXIAL 2).
Optional: Connect the left and right analog outputs from the CD player
to the AUDIO IN jacks labeled CD (left and right). This option uses the
CD player's D/A converters; however, this may result in an extra A/D
and D/A conversion step.
There are typically no video connections for a CD Player and no video
input is assigned to the CD, as a default setting.

DVD or Blu-ray Player

qwsjl
See Figure 5
DVD or Blu-ray player connections can be made using HDMI,
Component Video, S-Video, or Composite video connections.
Note: You must use either HDMI or Component Video connections
for a progressive scan or high definition player. You must make
a Composite Video or S-Video connection if you want to use the
DVD's signal in one of the three remote zones.
For HDMI connections: Connect an HDMI cable from the output of the
DVD player to one of the HDMI IN 1–4 inputs on the processor.
For Component Video connections: Connect a set of three
Component Video cables from the output of the DVD player to one of the
COMPONENT VIDEO 1–3 inputs on the processor. Make sure to connect
the Y output to the Y input, the PB output to the PB input, and the PR
output to the PR input.
For S-Video connections: Connect an S-Video cable from the output
of the DVD player to one of the S-Video IN 1–3 inputs on the processor.
For Composite Video connections: Connect an RCA-RCA video
cable from the output of the DVD player to one of the COMPOSITE IN
1–3 inputs on the processor.
Note: Use the INPUT SETUP screen to assign the video input you
have used to the DVD source.
Digital audio connection: Connect the digital output of the DVD
player to any one of the DIGITAL IN OPTICAL 1–4 or DIGITAL IN
COAXIAL 1–3 inputs on the processor. An HDMI cable carries both
digital video and digital audio signals; therefore, no separate digital
audio connection needs to be made.
Note: Use the INPUT SETUP screen to assign the digital input to
the same video input source used above.
Optional analog audio connection: If you want to record the audio
signal from the DVD player, connect the left and right analog outputs
from the DVD player to one pair of VIDEO IN 1–5 audio input jacks.
