INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
The RSL-6 is a Infrared Remote
Controlled Speaker Selection
System for up to six pairs of
speakers. The supplied remote
control enables you to select
any pair, any combination
of pairs, or all six pairs of
speakers at once. You don’t have
to worry about overloading your
amplifier. The RSL-6 has a programmable
microprocessor that constantly monitors
which speakers are playing and selects exact-
ly the right amount of protection for your
amplifier.
Remote Control
The slim, elegant remote con-
trol (included) allows you to
completely control which
speakers are playing. Each pair
of speakers has its own
ON/OFF
button. In addition, a program-
mable
ALL ON button (you
select which rooms will turn
on) and an
ALL OFF button
allow you to conveniently stop
or start your music with one
touch!
Computerized Protection
The brain of the RSL-6 is an eight
bit modified Harvard Architec-
ture Microcontroller. The micro-
controller is programmed to
remember the impedance of
each of your speaker pairs and
your amplifier’s ideal load. It
constantly monitors how many
speaker pairs are playing (and
which pairs), calculates the
exact amount of impedance
protection necessary, and pro-
vides the proper amount of pro-
tection for your amplifier.
Room LED’s and Labels.
Red LED’s indicate when a pair
of speakers is on. 72 pre-print-
ed room labels are included for
easy identification.
X-10
®
Powerline Control
Using optional X-10 wireless
remotes and controllers you
can control the RSL-6 through
the existing 120v AC electrical
wires in your home. Optional
NilesTW-523 interface module
is required.
Proudly Made in USA
The RSL-6 is made in Miami,
Florida and comes with a limit-
ed two year parts and labor
warranty.
ALL OFF button turns your
entire system off.
ALL-ON button enables you to
turn on all or some of your speakers
depending upon the rear panel DIP
switch settings.

Connections
If your amplifier has both “A” and “B”
speaker pair outputs connect the RSL-6
to the “A” outputs. Do not connect any-
thing to “B”. This will prevent the ampli-
fier or receiver from driving an unusual-
ly low impedance load.
Using the RSL-6 with Tube-Type
Amplifiers
Virtually all tube amplifiers must be
connected to a load at all times. If you
are using the RSL-6 with a tube-type
amplifier connect a 150 ohm, 5 watt
resistor across the tube amplifier’s out-
put in parallel with the RSL-6.
Impedance Matching
Use the SPEAKER DIP switches on the rear
panel of the RSL-6 to tell the Micro-con-
troller the impedance of each speaker
pair. Then, set the
AMP DIP switches to
your amplifier’s recommended load (2,
4 or 8 ohms). This guarantees maximum
performance from your amplifier.
Interfacing with a Multi-Room
Infrared Repeater System
If you are using a Niles IR repeater sys-
tem to relay remote control commands
you may connect the
FLASHER OUTPUT or
OPTION OUT of the repeater directly to the
IR DATA IN on the rear of the RSL-6. If you
have an external sensor in the same
room as the RSL-6 you can avoid optical
feedback by disabling the front panel IR
sensor using the rear panel
EYE DIP
switch.
X-10 Interfacing
If you are using X-10 to control your
lights and you plan to control your RSL-6
with X-10, use the X-10 DIP switches to
assign the RSL-6 a starting code which
will not interfere with your lights.
