Set the K2 AF GAIN control to minimum. This is good practice whenever you turn on the K2 as there
may be a loud “POP” in the audio, a strong signal on the frequency to which it is tuned, etc.
Turn on the K2. The LED should come on briefly, then extinguish.
The LED is turned on by the DSPx upon reset. It also comes on if there is an unrecognized command
issued to it by the KDSP2 controller.
It is turned off when the DSPx receives a valid command from the KDSP2. This occurs within a second or
so after power up, after the K2 announces its mode settings to the KDSP2.
