Use the K-array K-framework3 to control, configure and fine
tune K-array Kommander-KA amplifier platforms via a wired
Ethernet network.
Discovery
1. Ensure that any amplifier and the PC or Mac running the
K-framefork are properly connected to the same network.
2. Power up the amplifier(s).
3. Launch the K-framework3.
4. Open the Network window: for back compatibility with
legacy amplifiers, by default the discovery over the
RS485 serial communication is active.
a. In case no legacy amplifiers shall be discovered, disable
the discovery over the RS485 serial communication.
Any configuration made with the
K-array Control mobile app or the built-in web app
will be overridden by the K-framework3
.
5. Click on the Discovery button: the K-framework starts
scanning the network looking for K-array devices.
a. If the K-framework finds two or more device with the
wrong ID, a dialog window appears where unique ID
can be assigned to the amplifiers.
6. Once discovered, click on the SYNC button in order
to synchronize the devices and import them into the
workspace.
Grouping
The working paradigm is to group the amplifier’s input and
output channels and adjust the system performance within
the groups.
A. In Setup mode, set the amplifier local parameters
(presets, routing, input gains, limiters, etc).
B. Add INPUT and OUTPUT groups as needed.
C. Assign the amplifier’s channels to the groups.
D. In Tuning mode align the system (eq, delay, polarity, etc).
