7.5 Max mains current
The maximum current the amplier can draw from the mains can
be set by the user through the front panel of all K series ampliers.

FIGURE 32: Max mains current set up screen
The “+” and “-” buttons allow setting of the value of the max rms
mains current. Acceptable values are within the 8 A to 16 A for
K2s and K3s and from 15A to 32A range for all other K ampliers.
Setting the maximum mains current determines the current
threshold at which a C-Type current breaker will trip.
7.6 Clip Limiter CH1 - CH2
The clip function can be used to prevent distortion caused by
clipping of the excessive output signal amplitude. This feature can
be disabled or enabled by pressing the on/off button in the when
the clip limiter voice is selected in the Amplier settings menu:

FIGURE 33: Clip limiter setting for channels 1 and 2 separately
Please note that clip limiters can be set independently for both
channels.
CAUTION: disabling clip limiters can potentially damage
loudspeakers. The amplier’s internal clip limiters should not
be deactivated unless the limiting function is implemented by an
external device such as digital system controllers. In this case,
it is extremely important to correctly set limiting parameters in
order to preserve loudspeakers from excessively powerful and
potentially hazardous driving signals.
7.7 Gate CH1 - CH2
This function allows to mute the amplier channels individually
if the input signal amplitude falls below the values shown in the
following table:
Gain (dB) dBV dBu
26 -54 -52
29 -57 -55
32 -60 -58
35 -63 -61
This function can be enabled and disabled by pressing the right
most front panel button corresponding to the “on” or “off” label.

Gating the output is delayed by 5 seconds after the input signal
falls below the threshold. If the channel is muted, the bottom
green LED in the corresponding front panel LED column is off.
7.8 Mute At Power On
This functions allows the user to automatically mute all channels
when the amplier is turned on. Toggle the on or off status by
pressing the front panel button below the “sel” label.

button underneath the “mute” label in the front screen to unmute
the channel.
