FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Remote Control
Computerized Protection
Room LED’s and Labels.
Proudly Made in USA
The slim, elegant remote control (included) allows you to
completely control which
speakers are playing. Each pair
of speakers has its own ON/OFF
button. In addition, a programmable 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!
The brain of the RSL-6 is an eight
bit modified Harvard Architecture Microcontroller. The microcontroller 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 provides the proper amount of protection for your amplifier.
Red LED’s indicate when a pair
of speakers is on. 72 pre-printed room labels are included for
easy identification.
The RSL-6 is made in Miami,
Florida and comes with a limited two year parts and labor
warranty.
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
Niles TW-523 interface module
is required.

APPLICATION NOTES
Connections
Impedance Matching
If your amplifier has both “A” and “B”
speaker pair outputs connect the RSL-6
to the “A” outputs. Do not connect anything to “B”. This will prevent the amplifier or receiver from driving an unusually low impedance load.
Use the SPEAKER DIP switches on the rear
panel of the RSL-6 to tell the Micro-controller 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.

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.
If you are using a Niles IR repeater system to relay remote control commands
you may connect the FLASHER OUTPUT or
OPTION OUT of the repeater directly to the

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 output in parallel with the RSL-6.
