Phono Input Selector Switch
q
The Phono input is for a moving magnet (MM)
or moving coil (MC) phono cartridge only and
is incompatible with line level components. Set
the Phono Input Selector Switch as appropri-
ate for the phono cartridge you are using.
Leave the switch button in the out position for
a moving magnet cartridge; push the switch
in for a moving coil cartridge.
Some high output moving coil cartridges are
designed to operate in the moving magnet
position. If you are in doubt about the correct
setting, check the instruction manual for your
phono cartridge for information regarding its
output voltage and the expected input imped-
ance. The Phono input has 47 kOhms input
impedance and 2.5 mV sensitivity in the MM
position and 100 Ohms input impedance and
0.25 mV sensitivity in the MC position. If you
still have questions about the proper setting of
the phono input selector switch, consult your
authorized Rotel dealer.

Connection
Plug the cable from the turntable into the ap-
propriate left and right phono inputs. If the
turntable has a “ground” wire connect it to the
screw terminal to the left of the Phono inputs.
It will help prevent hum and noise.
Recorder Connections
t
The Tape 1 and Tape 2 inputs and outputs can
be connected to any record/playback device
that accepts standard line level analog input
and output signals. Typically that will be a
conventional tape recorder.
When connecting a recorder to the RC-1082,
remember that the outputs of the recorder must
be connected to the tape inputs of the RC-1082.
Similarly the tape outputs of the RC-1082 must
be connected to the inputs of the recorder. As
with other sources be sure to connect the Left
and Right channels of each device to the proper
channels on the associated components. Use
high quality connecting cables to prevent loss
of sound quality.
Output Connections
u
Most RCA-type output connectors are compat-
ible with most power amplifiers. As always, use
high quality cables and be sure to connect the
Left and Right channel outputs of the RC-1082
to the correct channels of the amplifier.
NOTE: There are two sets of RCA outputs
on the RC-1082. The second set of outputs
may be used in custom system configura-
tions to drive a second power amplifier or
to supply a signal to a special signal pro-
cessor.
12 Volt Trigger Outlet
p
Some audio components can be turned on
automatically when they receive a 12V turn on
“signal”. The 12V Trigger Outputs of RC-1082
provides the required signal. Connect the
compatible components to the RC-1082 with a
conventional 1/8” miniplug cable. When the
RC-1082 is in Standby mode, the trigger signal
is interupted, so the components controlled by
it are turned off.
IR Inputs and Outputs
External Remote Input
i
This 3.5 mm mini-jack (labeled EXT REM IN)
receives command codes from an industry-
standard infrared receivers (Xantech, etc.)
located in the main listening room. This feature
is useful when the unit is installed in a cabinet
and the front-panel sensor is blocked. Consult
your authorized Rotel dealer for information
on external receivers and the proper wiring of
a jack to fit the mini-jack receptacle.
NOTE: The IR signals from the EXTERNAL
REMOTE IN jack can be relayed to source
components using external IR emitters or
hardwired connections from the IR OUT
jacks.
IR Output
o
The IR OUT 1 and 2 jacks send IR signals
received at the EXTERNAL REM IN jack to an
infrared emitter placed in front of a source
component or to other Rotel compoents with
compatible rear panel IR input connectors.
This output is used to allow IR signals to pass
along IR signals from a remote control when
the sensors on the source components are
blocked by installation in a cabinet.
See your authorized Rotel dealer for informa-
tion on IR repeater systems.
NOTE: The EXT REM IN jack located next
to these jacks is for use with an external IR
sensor duplicating the front panel IR sensor
and located in the primary zone.
12V Trigger Connections
p
Many Rotel amplifiers offer the option of turn-
ing them on and off using a 12 volt trigger
signal sent to them. The RC-1082 provides two
12 volt trigger outputs. When the RC-1082 is
turned on, a 12 volt DC signal is sent to the
amplifiers to turn them on. When the RC-1082
is put in STANDBY mode, the trigger signal is
interrupted and the amplifiers turn off.
To use the remote turn on feature, connect one
of the RC-1082 12V TRIGGER OUT jacks to
the 12 volt trigger input of a Rotel amplifier,
using a cable with mono 3.5 mm mini-plugs
on both ends. The +12 V DC signal appears
at the “tip” connector.
NOTE: The number “1” 12V trigger signal
is turned off when headphones are plugged
into the front panel headphone outlet. See
the Phones Output section.
Computer I/O Connector
y
The RC-1082 can be operated from a personal
computer running audio system control software
from third-party developers. This control is
accomplished by sending the operating codes
normally sent by the RR-AT97 remote control
over a hard-wired network connection from
the computer.
The COMPUTER I/O input provides the neces-
sary connection on the back 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,
software, and operating codes for computer
control of the RC-1082, contact your authorized
Rotel dealer.
