1068 crash...

[H.Donald]

This afternoon I switched some cables around...afterwards,while listening to music I went to turn up the volume and everything went off.The 1068 went completely blank.It would not turn on or power up at all.After standing there dumbfounded for a while,I unplugged it and it powered up again.Everything now appears to be working ok...but,I lost all my settings.I now must go about renaming inputs,levels ect.Has this happened to anyone else out there?
I'm hoping its a one time event.

Oops,

Did you not have the 1068 turned off when you moved the cables :E ?

If you didn't have it completely powered down, then you are lucky that's all that happened!

Cracking!

My 1056 locked up while in standby mode yesterday.

We later discovered via a flashing clock elsewhere that we must have had some kind of power spike/dip/etc... (most clocks didn't reset so no outright power loss)

Flipped the power switch off and back on and all was good (settings still in tact)

It sounds like you had a power problem and did not even realize it. This is very common actually and the newer Rotel product seem to have sensitive protection circuitry. Stinks that you lost your settings but be glad that is all that happened.

You actually need to save your personal settings via the Default Menu and set the user default.

Sorry that you lost your settings, I know that is a bummer.

Even though I save my user default settings via the menu, I still record my settings, just in case.

Hope this helps,
