    Installation Category Pollution Degree Contingent upon DynAmp, LLC computer analysis of bus system. The LKP systems are factory-set for the correct voltage and frequency (50 or 60 Hz) per customer order. To operate an LKP system at a different line frequency than was ordered, move jumper JP1 (located on the control board inside each module) to the desired frequency.
