Creating Initial Data 

 

Property Page of KCS-ID operation – Export for Initial Data Creation 

The 

KCS-ID

 measurement data has to be sent to the

 KCS Server

 so that initial data can be created for 

your  specific  hardware  platform.  Save  the 

zip

  file  on  your  hard  drive.  Now  press 

Open  KCS  Server

 

which opens KCS Server website 

www.klippel-hub.de

. 

After logging-in, the zip file can be uploaded. Based on this data, the KCS Server creates a full initial 
data  set  for  operating  KCS  comprising  linear  and  nonlinear  speaker  parameters,  calibration  values 
and  more.  After  the  processing  is  finished,  a 

KCS  Monitor

  operation  is  created  and  can  be 

downloaded. 

Now  you  are  ready  to  start  KCS  on-line  processing.  See  the 

Manual  KCS  Monitor  [KCS3]. 

Before 

evaluating  KCS  it  is  highly  recommended  to  see 

Tutorial

 

(Alignment,  Equalization)  and

(Protection, Limiter)

 

of 

[KCS3] 

which describe steps how to achieve best audio performance.  

Note:

 The hardware platform can be selected after the KCS-ID measurement has finished. If initial 

data  for  different  target  platforms  shall  be  created,  it  is  not  necessary  to  perform  another  KCS-ID 
measurement.

Why is 

X

max

 not equal to 

X

target

A  maximum  voice  coil  displacement 

X

max

  is  automatically  detected  in  the  KCS-ID  and  on  the  KCS 

Server. 

X

max

 is the voice coil excursion which shall never be exceeded during KCS on-line operation. 

The determination of 

X

max

 is based on the KCS-ID limit parameters
