Operating the RSP-1580
Considering its large number of features, settings and options, this Rotel
RSP-1580 is remarkably easy to operate. The key to operating the unit
is its system of On-Screen Displays (OSD) which guide you through
various choices.
The processor can be operated from the front panel or the remote control.
Front panel controls are unusually simple to use, with just a few knobs
and buttons to guide you through OSD menu options. The remote control
provides more complete control options.
To guide you through the operation of the unit, this section of the manual
starts with explaning the basic layout and function of the front panel and
the remote control. Then, we explain the basic operations such as turning
the unit on and off, adjust volume, selecting a source for listening, etc.
Following that is a detailed explanation of surround sound modes and
how to configure the unit for various types of recordings. Finally, there
are instructions for additional features and zone (MON) operation. All
of these are features that may be used in normal operation. The last
section of the manual (Configuration) details options that may be selected
during initial setup and configuration of the unit, many of which will be
set once and left untouched.
Throughout this manual, numbers in square boxes refer to the main unit
illustration at the front of this manual. Letters refer to the remote handset
illustration. When both appear, the function is found on both the unit's
front panel and on the remote. When only one appears, that function is
found either only on the main unit, or only on the remote.
