This OTHER OPTIONS menu, accessed from the MAIN menu, provides
access to several miscellaneous settings as follows:
RECORD: Select which source signal to be sent to the recording outputs
by choosing one of the input sources. The options are: CD, TAPE, TUNER,
VIDEO 1–5, and SOURCE. You can either select a specific component
or select SOURCE which will send the signal to the record outputs from
whatever source is selected for listening. The default is SOURCE.
TURN ON VOL: Specifies a default volume level to be used each time
the unit is activated. You can select LAST to have the receiver power up
with the last previously used volume setting. Or, you specify a volume
from MIN (full mute) to MAX, in 1dB increments. Note that this setting
cannot exceed the MAX VOL established in the next line of the menu.
MAX VOL: Specifies the maximum volume level for the receiver. The
volume cannot be adjusted above this level. Settings range from MIN to
MAX, in 1dB increments.
POWER: This setting determines how the receiver powers up.
With the default STANDBY setting, the unit powers up in standby mode
when AC is applied and the rear panel POWER button is ON. The unit
must be activated using the front panel STANDBY button or the remote
ON/OFF buttons.
With the DIRECT setting, the unit is fully activated when AC power is
applied and the rear panel POWER button is ON; however, it may be
put in standby mode using the front panel STANDBY button or the remote
ON/OFF buttons.
In ALWAYS-ON mode, the unit remains fully active whenever AC
is present and the rear panel POWER button is ON; the front panel
STANDBY button and the remote ON/OFF buttons are disabled and the
unit cannot be put in standby mode.
In RESUME mode, the receiver will return to the last power condition
setting when switched on. For example, when the AC mains power is
switched OFF during operation, it will return to operating mode when the
mains power is switched on again.
LANGUAGE: Selects a language for the On Screen Display
DISCRETE: The default setting of NO allows control of volume and
input selection in remote zones 2–4 from the main room remote control.
Changing the setting to YES prevents the remote control in the main room
from affecting any other zone in any way, even when the receiver is in
zone mode following a change to a zone.
The discrete option does not affect the control of the zones from the front
panel buttons in any way.
Note: The DISCRETE function is not available on all models and
is dependent on the software version installed. The DISCRETE
function is intended for use by a Rotel dealer or installer only.
Rotel’s use of discrete IR commands in multi-zone models provides easier
integration with IR control systems, making control possible from a single
IR input. For Rotel dealers or installers, further information is available on
the Rotel website: www.rotel.com

Video/HDMI Setup
The VIDEO/HDMI menu deals with the configuration of the HDMI and
Component output for high-definition video display devices. See the
Video Inputs & Outputs section of this manual.
VIDEO OUT FORMAT: Specifies the video resolution and format of
the video output at the TV MONITOR outputs. The receiver will scale all
video inputs up to this specified resolution for a perfect match with the
native resolution of your HDTV monitor. Can be 480p/576p, 720p,
1080i, 1080p.
HDMI AUDIO MODE: options are AMP MODE and TV MODE. In
AMP MODE the HDMI Audio and other audio (analog or digital) inputs
are processed and amplified by the receiver for output to the connected
speakers. TV MODE (pass-through) provides HDMI Audio and other
audio (analog or digital) outputs for use with an audio-capable display
device. In TV MODE, there is no output from the receiver’s speaker
terrminals.
