INPUT FREQUENCY;

This screen shows the AC line frequency of the
power coming from the wall power outlet and
the AC line frequency of the power being sup-
plied to the connected devices.

At times, the frequency values on this screen may
not match. This is due to the fact that separate
circuits are used to make frequency measure-
ments, and there is a time delay between the
two circuits for updating this status screen. This
condition is normal.
Note:
The display will revert to the default
SOURCE; EST RUNTIME screen after about
30 seconds of inactivity. The default screen
can be changed. See the “Setting the Default
Screen” section of this manual.
Connecting the Components
WARNING:
Do not make telephone, cable,
Ethernet, antenna, electrical, or ground
system
connections during a lightning storm. Failure to
comply may result in personal injury or death.
The RLC-1080 has four groups of power outlets.
Each group has specialized filtering and surge
protection that are specifically designed for
certain type of components. It is recommended
that you connect your A/V components to the
power outlets that are designed for that type of
unit. For more information see the
AC Power
Outlets
section of this manual.
Connect the ground connector of each component
in the system to the
SYSTEM GROUND
terminal
on the RLC-1080. This will eliminate “ground
loops” thus prevent the audible hum that they
might otherwise produce.
