Connecting video inputs

Connect your video components to the
RVE-1060 using HDMI, Component Video,
S-Video, or Composite Video connections.
Refer to Figures 6 or 7 and the detailed in-
structions in the CONNECTIONS section of
this manual.

Power

Plug the supplied AC cable into the back of
the RVE-1060 and into the AC wall outlet.
Turn the unit on by pressing the STANDBY
button on the front panel.
Configure the RVE-1060
Use the menus described in the Setup section
of the manual to assign each of the source
components you have connected to one of
the five available inputs. Configure the output
of the RVE-1060 to match the native resolu-
tion of your TV set.

Operating the RVE-1060

Press one of the input buttons on the front panel
or remote to select a video input for display
on the TV. Press the OUTPUT button on the
front panel or one of the OUTPUT buttons on
the remote to change the video resolution of
the output signal to the TV.
When connected to a Rotel surround proces-
sor or receiver, operation of the RVE-1060
is totally automatic. When selecting an input
from the surround processor, a command is
sent to the RVE-1060 to switch video sources
accordingly.
: The RVE-1060 can up-rez video signals
NOTE
to a higher resolution, but cannot down-rez
video (for example, scaling 720p down to
480i). Therefore, make sure that the output
resolution is equal to or higher than the reso-
lution of all input sources.
: The RVE-1060 can only output stan-
NOTE
dard definition video signals (480i or 576i)
from standard definition input sources.
: The RVE-1060 automatically outputs
NOTE
either NTSC or PAL standard video to match
the video standard of the input source.

CONNECTIONS
Connecting the RVE-1060 to your system
is straightforward. Each of the source com-
ponents in the system is connected to the
RVE-1060 video inputs with a digital or analog
video cable. In most systems, each of these
source components will also be connected to
a surround sound processor or A/V receiver
with a digital or analog audio cable.
The video output of the RVE-1060 is then
connected to an HDTV monitor and/or an
standard definition television, again using a
digital or analog video cable.
In addition, the RVE-1060 has serial and RJ-45
computer I/O connections for integration with
Rotel surround sound processors and/or other
system controllers. Finally, remote IR sensor
inputs are used for transferring infrared remote
control commands to the RVE-1060 and 12V
trigger connections for remote turn-on of the
RVE-1060 by other Rotel components.
: Do not plug any system component
NOTE
into an AC source until all connections have
been properly made.

Cable Selection

Video connections to the RVE-1060 can be
made with digital or analog video cables:
Digital
The digital video connections to the RVE-1060
are made using HDMI cables. These multi-pin
connectors are capable of carrying broad-
band digital video signals plus digital audio
signals such as Dolby Digital 5.1
The HDMI connection standard is fully com-
patible with DVI connectors on source com-
ponents and HDTV monitors. Connecting a
DVI-equiped component to the RVE-1060's
inputs or outputs requires the use of a DVI to
HDMI adaptor or cable.
Analog
Analog video components can be connected
to the RVE-1060 with a choice of three types
of analog video connections: composite video
or S-Video for standard definition TVs and
source components or Component Video for
high-definition TVs and components.
Video cables should have a 75 ohm imped-
ance. Do NOT substitute conventional audio
interconnect cables for digital or video signals.
Standard audio interconnects will pass these
signals, but their limited bandwidth reduce
performance.
Connecting an
HDTV Monitor
A key feature of the RVE-1060 is that it can
send a video signal to any HDTV monitor in
exactly the format that best matches the na-
tive mode and resolution of the TV.
Digital HDTVs, such as LCD and plasma flat-
screens, display digital signals directly. These
TVs should be connected to the RVE-1060
using the HDMI digital outputs.
Analog HDTVs, such as CRT and rear-projec-
tion sets, display analog signals. Although
these can be connected with an HDMI cable,
these TVs should generally be connected with
analog Component Video cables to avoid
an unnecessary digital-to-analog conver-
sion in the TV.

HDMI digital connection

See Figure 3
Connect one end of an HDMI cable to the
VIDEO OUT HDMI connector on the back of
the RVE-1060. Connect the other end of the
cable to the HDMI input connector on the
back of the HDTV.

A set of three Component Video cables with
RCA plugs is required to make Component
Video Connections between the RVE-1060
and the HDTV monitor:
1. Connect one cable from the VIDEO OUT
connector labeled Y on the RVE-1060 to
the Y input on the TV.
2. Connect a second cable from the VID-
EO OUT connector labeled P
RVE-1060 to the P
3. Connect a third cable from the VIDEO OUT
connector labeled P
the P input on the TV.
