Rear Panel - K-array redline KMT12 User Manual

KMT12/KMT18
The minimum electrical service amperage required by a K-array loudspeakers system is the sum of their
maximum continuous RMS current. We recommend allowing an additional 30% above the minimum amperage
to prevent peak voltage drops at the service entry.
KMT12/KMT18 max continuous apparent power (VA)
410VA(>10 sec) - 2200VA (<1 sec)

1)
CH1 Line XLR input. This input ha a sensitivity of +4 dBu.
2)
CH2 Mic/Line XLR input. The sensitivity of this input can be switched between -30 dBu (Mic mode) and +4 dBu
(Line mode).
3)
CH1 XLR parallel out. This connector is physically linked to the CH1 input XLR socket. Its outputs the signal
entering CH1 before any processing and cannot be controlled via the K-Framework software in any way (see 1.).
4)
Input Phantom Power switch. This button turns the phantom power (48V) on/off on CH1 and CH2 inputs.
5)
Mic/Line switch. This button selects the input mode of CH2. Modes are Mic mode (sensitivity -30 dBu) and Line
mode (sensitivity +4 dBu).
6)
Limiting LEDs. These LEDs blinks when the optical limiter is operating on the corresponding input to protect the
preamp circuit. Limiters operation threshold is +5 dBu.
7)
DSP out. This is an auxiliary XLR balanced output controlled via the K-Framework software. User can select the
signal to route to this output and manage its amplitude and EQ individually (v. ..).
8)
DSP out Phantom Power switch. This button turns the phantom power (48V) on and off on the DSP out line. The
phantom power on this line is needed to drive additional wireless signal transmitters/receivers.
9)
AES/EBU XLR input. This input is for two channels of digital audio in AES/EBU signal format. It accepts all
sample rates between 32KHz and 96KHz.
10)
AES/EBU XLR output. This connector is linked to the AES/EBU input XLR socket. It outputs the signal entering
AES/EBU before any processing and cannot be controlled via the K-Framework software in any way. Digital audio is
output as PCM at a sample rate of 48KHz in AES/EBU signal format.
11)
RS485 XLR input. This input is for connecting a computer running the K-Framework software to remotely control
the KMT (K-USB usb to RS485 adapter is required).
12)
RS485 XLR link. This output is for connecting another device to the K-framework network.
13)
USB socket. This socket is for connecting a computer running the K-Framework software to remotely control the
KMT. This socket allows to manage a whole RS485 network of devices with just one PC connected to the USB of one
element of the network (see the picture below).
14)
Speaker Out Speakon output. This power output can drive another passive speaker like a KP mid-high module
or a KMTp passive subwoofer, depending on the preset currently loaded on the KMT DSP.
15)
Power switch. This switch turns the KMT system on and off.
16)
AC Powercon input. This input is for mains power. See p. 11 for voltage and power requirements.
17)
AC link Powercon ouput. This output is for sharing the mains power on with any other K-Array system with a
powercon AC input socket on board.
18)
Extension Connector. Multi-pin connector for various extensions modules from K-Array, dedicated to wire less
control and audio transmission, memory extension, digital signal encoding and audio reproduction.
19)
Power on LED. When this LED is on it indicates that the system is ON.
20)
TOUCH SCREEN Control panel. Provides access to the main functions of the DSP on board (see the dedicated
section at page ...).
