    Upgrading software rsx 1055

    Hi wandering if anyone can help me. trying to upgrade software for rsx 1055 using hyperterminal private edition. I am following the technical software information which I printed off the rotel website. I make a connection but when I get to the part where it says press 1 for the memory to be erased it does nothing when I press it. Why is this so, please help. P.S I did move the dim switches to ON.

    Does your computor have an rs232 serial port, or is it usb with a serial port adaptor?
    Do you have the correct comm port selected?
    Hyperterminal is probably not seeing the receiver.

      yes it is a rs232 with db9 rj45 connections

      hyperteminal gives me the download setup screen and gives me the options 1,2 and 3 but the keyboard is useless at this point. The cursor continues to flash but nothing happens after I press 1. It does say it is connected at the bottom.
      Just wandering with the dip swithes at the back how do they actually work all you have to do is push them down a little bit to ON or am I doing something wrong there. And yes I am on com1 which is the only port that it picks up tried other ports but com1 seems to be the one that it picks up on

        If you get the option screen, the dip switches are right. Did you make the cable yourself or are you using a cable from Rotel? It sounds like the transmit wire on the computer side is not pinned right.

        Otherwise make sure the ACSII setup and emulation mode is correct. I can't remember but you may have to hit enter after the 1.

        If all that checks out, go to the 1098's software download page and get the MTTY terminal program and the upgrade instructions for it. It will work with the 1055 and it's a lot more stable product the Hyperterminal.

            V2.25 to V2.26
            - Eliminated popping sound heard during DSP and Digital mode transitions.
            - Set surround mode to default to DPLII when selected rather than reverting to PCM 2CH when changing channels with Digital Cable or Satellite sources.
            Not worth it unless the above bugs you.

              RSX-1055 up in smoke
              by zoomiin
              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,...

              RSX 1067 computer connection
              by kiwi_frog
              On the back of the RSX 1067 there is an ethernet port - with a dongle that converts it to a serial port. My question is - Can I control the receiver via the serial port, and if so, where is the software avaliable. I know that its designed to do software upgrades, but on my old Marantz SR7400 I could...

              RSX-1058 video upscaling issues
              by avermapub
              Hello esteemed Rotel Club members,

              I recently bought an RSX-1058 and am really excited about it. The sound is superb
              and most features are working great. The video upscaling to HDMI, however, is not
              working. I am connecting it to Pioneer PRO-530HD TV. It is a rear projection...

              Hello,

              I am writing this post since I have contacted Rotel about my issue two times and have not heard back from their support.
