Use the 



and 



keys to scroll through the selections above and press the 



key to

select.

GAIN

MENU

- Here is where you adjust the selected group’s gain controls. All amplifiers in the

group will be adjusted up or down when you adjust the gain control. If each amplifier has different gain

settings, the WXRC will display the gain level of the highest amplifier in the group . It also monitors and

maintains any differences between channels or individual amplifiers that you may have set separately.If

you can not adjust a group up or down, then it means the channel differences are being maintained and

there is no where to go. You will need to adjust each amplifier individually or set each amplifier’s gain to

a similar setting.

Here is an example:

Group-01 has two amplifiers in it, amp 1 has both channels gain set at

12.0

while amp 2 is at 

0.0

.

When you select this group to adjust the gain you will see

12.0

in the display, the highest gain setting

of the group.

When you try to increase or decrease the gain setting of this group, nothing will happen. Since the gain

range is 12 dB (0.0 dB to 12.0 dB) there is no way to increase or decrease the gain and maintain 12 dB

of difference between the amplifiers. The WXRC is maintaining the differences you set between the

amplifiers. 

EQ

MENU

- Here is where you adjust the selected group’s EQ controls. All amplifiers in the group

will be adjusted.

equalizer option to adjust on this group if desired. 

bandwidth

(better known as Q) can be set from 

.5

to 

10

in .5 increments. In simple terms, lower Q

effects more frequencies around the center frequency while higher Q effects fewer frequencies around

the center frequency.

Use the

0 dB

to

+18 db

in .5 dB

steps. Keep in mind that for every 3 dB of boost you are requiring the amplifier to use twice as much

power in that equalized area. The  default setting from KICKER is 

FLAT 

(No boost or cut).

Use the

display is lit. This indicates you are making adjustments in the LO-PASS

menu.

The KICKER WXRC monitors and prevents any low pass crossover point from being set any closer than

1/3 octave from the high pass crossover point. If you cannot set the low pass crossover where you

want then check the ISIS display and see if the 

LPF

is lit and the 

HPF

indicator is flashing. If it is then you need to go to the GROUP ADJ. HI-PASS

menu and lower the high pass crossover point. This is done as a safety

precaution to prevent a notch filter condition.
