Setup
Turning the power on/off
The KROSS can be powered either by an AC adapter or by
using batteries.
Connecting the AC adapter
1. Make sure that the power is turned off. Make sure
that nothing is shown on the display, and that the
LEDs are unlit.
2. Connect the DC plug of the included AC adapter to
the DC9V (power supply) jack on the KROSS’s rear
panel.
You must only use the included AC adapter. Using
any other AC adapter might cause malfunctions.
3. Connect the AC adapter to an AC outlet.
Be sure to use an AC outlet of the correct voltage for
your adapter.
4. Use the cord hook of the KROSS to fasten the AC
adapter cord so that it will not be unplugged
accidentally.
Turning the power on
1. Turn the KROSS’s VOLUME knob
all the way to the left so that the
volume is down.
If any external equipment, such as a
monitor amplifier is connected, lower
their volume as well and then turn off
their power.
2. On the rear panel of the KROSS, hold
down the power button until the power
turns on. Keep holding down the button
until the display lights up.
The display will show the model name and
software version.
With the factory settings, the auto power-off
function of the KROSS is enabled; immediately after
you start up, the following message will appear,
indicating the time until the power will turn off
automatically.
If you disable the auto power-off function, this
message is not displayed. (see “Auto power-off
function” on page 18)
3. Turn on the power of the external equipment that’s
connected to the KROSS’s OUTPUT L/MONO and R
jacks, such as a monitor amplifier.
4. Use the KROSS’s VOLUME knob and the volume
controls of your external equipment to set the volume
to a suitable level.
