KS-342

Expansion

The KS-342 may be used together with the KS-6001 sub mixer, which provides a further four channels of input feeding the AUX bus, and/or the KS-6002 compressor/EQ module, which pro- vides sweepable 2-band EQ and compression facilities for each channel. The KS-342 can act as the power source for these units, which integrate neatly with the built-in connector on the top panel of the unit.

These modular connectors allow you to build up a portable Kamesan system in a similar way to a child’s building block set, without the need for other connectors or cables, as all audio signals and power are carried by these built-in connectors.

There is no need to make any switch assignments on any of the units—for example, when the KS-6002 is connected, the compressors and EQ circuits are automatically inserted into the channels, etc.

You should note that since these expansion units do not have their own power supplies, there will be an additional drain on the KS-342 batteries, and the battery life will be shortened.

Attaching and detaching units

When attaching units to the KS-342, you should remove the rectangular connector cover on the top panel, keeping it and the screws in a safe place before fitting the other unit, so that its male connector on the bottom plate mates with the female connector on the top of the KS 342. The locating pins situated on the bottom of the other unit should match the locating holes on the top panel of the KS-342.

To detach a sub-unit from the KS-342, move both locking le- vers on the top center sides of the KS-342 forwards and lift.

See the documentation supplied with the KS-6001 and KS- 6002 for full details regarding the fitting and the use of these units.
