Crest Audio Inc. NexSys v. 3.0
16. CK family Sequential Turn-On/Turn-Off (STO)
Sequential Turn-On/Turn-Off is a standard feature on CK family amplifiers. The STO fea-
ture allows the user turn on their amplifiers sequentially with a delay between each one. This
protects the electrical system from excessive current draws due to in-rush current demands
of the amplifiers.
NexSys Sequential Turn-On/Turn-Off control is accessed in several ways. One method is to
open individual controls (per amplifier) from the Plan Inventory window. Another is to
select the Sequential Power button on the toolbar which displays all units in the Plan. When
in either window a double click on the sequential power Device line will open the window
for an individual amplifier. A double click on the sequential power title bar just above the
individual listings will open the window controls the entire Plan. The Plan wide sequencing
window also allows you to select the turn on/off delay times between all units. CK family
amplifiers equipped with the optional AC mains monitor (NC-SAC or NC-SLM module)
will see the line voltage, current and wattage consumption in addition to the sequential turn-
on/turn-off button. Sequential power control may be added to any of the groups you create.
Sequential power units may be renamed by selecting it with the right mouse button and then
choosing the set up menu.
The sequential power control is only available with CK family amplifiers.
