KCS Monitor Tutorial

Attention:
(A6 tool only)
Make sure to not only compensate the maximum gain of the alignment as
explained above, but also the maximum equalizer gain of the A6
EQ
category if it exceeds 0 dB total
gain. This is essential to avoid the A6 limiter getting triggered.

Tutorial 5 – Protection and Limiter
KCS is dedicated to operate loudspeakers in the
large signal domain
and drive them close to their
physical limits. Therefore, it must comprise protection systems to avoid any damage. The states to
be monitored and limited are
excursion
,
peak
voltage
,
temperature
and
electrical power
. The
values of these limits depend on the target platform, the target amplifier, the speaker and limits set
in the KCS-ID measurement module. They are set automatically on the KCS Server.
However, some of these limits might have to be adjusted manually. This tutorial explains briefly how
the protection systems and the limiter works and how to adjust the according parameters.
