be analog audio connections using a pair
of standard RCA audio cables.
The various audio connections to a Rotel sur-
round sound processor are shown in Figures 6
and 7. See the Owners’ Manual for your sur-
round processor or A/V receiver for detailed
instructions on making these connections.
Other Connections
Computer I/O
The RVE-1060 can be operated from a com-
puter 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.
The COMPUTER I/O input provides the
necessary network connections on the back
panel, using the supplied Computer I/O
cable. Plug the 8-pin modular plug end of
the cable into the COMPUTER I/O connec-
tor. Plug the other end into a DB-9 serial port
on the computer.
For additional information on the connections,
software, and operating codes for computer
control of the RVE-1060, contact your autho-
rized Rotel dealer.
NOTE: This connection can also be used for
installing future updates to the RVE-1060
operating software. For upgrading, the UP-
GRADE option must be enabled in the Setup
menus. See the Setup section of the manual
for instructions.
AC Power
Your RVE-1060 will automatically configure
itself for the proper AC line voltage ranging
from 110 volts to 240 volts at 50/60Hz. No
setting is required to match the unit to your
local voltage.
Plug the supplied cord into the AC INPUT
receptacle on the back of the unit. After all
connections have been made, plug the cord
into an appropriate AC wall outlet.
NOTE: If you are away for an extended period
of time, it is a sensible precaution to unplug
your audio/video components.
EXT REM IN Jack
This 3.5mm jack receives command codes
from industry-standard infrared receivers via
hard-wired connections. This feature could
prove useful when the unit is installed in a
cabinet and the front panel sensor is blocked.
Connect this input to the EXT REM OUT jack
of the main Rotel component with a mono
3.5 mm to mono 3.5 mm cable.
12V TRIGGER Input
The RVE-1060 can be activated by a 12 volt
trigger signal from another Rotel component,
such as a surround processor. The 12V IN
connection provides an input to receive the
12 volt trigger signal.
The trigger input accepts any control signal
(AC or DC) ranging from 3 volts to 30 volts.
When the supplied cable is connected to
the input and a trigger signal is present, the
RVE-1060 is activated. When the trigger sig-
nal is interrupted, the unit goes into standby
mode. The front panel indicator light remains
lit, but the Input/Output LEDs are extinguished
and the unit will not operate.
Connect one end of the supplied cable to
the 12V TRIGGER INPUT on the RVE-1060.
Plug the other end into the 12V TRIG output
of the Rotel surround processor, receiver, or
preamp.

Processors and Receivers
See Figure 8
Once configured, the RVE-1060 handles all
video switching and processing, operated
automatically by a Rotel surround processor
or receiver. Select an input for listening on
the Rotel surround processor and the proces-
sor automatically commands the RVE-1060
to send the matching video signal to the TV
monitor. This quick start guide provides simple
instructions for integrating the RVE-1060 with
Rotel RSX-1056, RSX-1057, RSX-1067, RSP-
1068, RSP-1098, etc.
Connect a video monitor
1. Connect the video monitor or TV to the
RVE-1060. This can be any kind of video
monitor or connection, but will typically
be a high-definition digital monitor con-
nected to the HDMI monitor output of the
RVE-1060. No TV monitor is connected
to the surround processor.
2. Set the MONITOR INTERFACE setting on
the RVE-1060 MONITOR SETUP menu
to match the TV monitor (HDMI/DVI or
ANALOG).
Connect audio source inputs
1. Connect all audio signals from the source
input components (DVD player, HDTV re-
ceiver, etc.) to the audio inputs of the Rotel
surround processor or receiver. No audio
connections are made to the RVE-1060.
Connect video source inputs
1. Connect up to five video source input
components (DVD player, HDTV cable
receiver, etc.) to the video inputs of the
RVE-1060. No video sources are con-
nected to the surround processor.
2. If you have not connected the video sourc-
es to the default connections for the five
inputs on the RVE-1060, go to the INPUT
SETUP menu of the RVE-1060 and assign
each of the video sources to one of the
five inputs. The default assignments are:
Input 1: HDMI 1 connection
Input 2: HDMI 2 connection
Input 3: COMPONENT 1 connection
Input 4: S-VIDEO 1 connection
Input 5: COMPOSITE 1 connection
Connect the RVE-1060 to the
surround processor
1. Connect the RVE-1060 to the surround
processor with the supplied computer I/O
cable. Connect the 8-pin modular plug of
the cable to the COMPUTER I/O output of
the Rotel surround processor. Connect the
DB-9 Serial plug of the cable to the SERIAL
I/O connector on the RVE-1060.
2. Make a video connection between the
surround processor and the RVE-1060
using the supplied S-Video cable, so that
the on-screen menus from the surround
