I had my RSX-1055 powered down for the first time in ages the other day (actually unplugged from power). When I started it back up, the power light came on but the display was blank.
I checked the back, and the dip switches were set to the off position. I power cycled it a number of times, from the front panel and from the remote. Still the same blank display.
I figured that maybe I should zap the firmware, so I powered it down, plugged in the cable to my laptop and to the port on the back, and flipped the dip switches down to 'ON'.
I power it back up. The display was still blank but now the power button was also not illuminated.
Then I started HyperTerminal and I got a ">>" prompt and nothing else.
I hit enter once on my laptop keyboard and got another ">>" prompt. I hit enter once more and then smoke came out of the RWX-1055. The smell of electrical firw was in the air. I quickly disconnected everything.
Any ideas what I did wrong?
