Note that when new batteries are inserted, the indicators may show
the middle or low battery condition. This is because the power LEDs
monitor the actual real-time battery usage, and when the unit is ac-
tually in use (phantom power, headphone amp, etc.), the true bat-
tery status will be shown.

Do not use the VU meter light more than necessary (this can
result in considerable savings).

Turn off the power to the Kamesan KS-T2000 when it is not
in use (“resting” the batteries can increase the battery life
very significantly).

Setting the XLR output level switch to the +4 setting can
reduce battery consumption.

Cold batteries have a shorter life than warm ones. In winter
or other cold conditions, you may want to keep the batteries
warm when they are not in use. At 0°C (32°F), battery life is
about 60% less than at 20°C (68°F).

As long as the connector conforms to the polarity of the
Kamesan KS-T2000 connector (tip negative), a BP-90-type
battery can be used for external power of the mixer.

The Kamesan KS-T2000 can use one of two optional external
adapters:

PS-M12 mini power supply

SS-40611 MkII low noise power supply

Alternatively, any other power supply may be used (although this
is not recommended), provided that it conforms to the following
specifications:

Connector: BP-90 type with tip negative

Voltage: >9.0 V and <16.0 V

Power: >0.5 A

Any non-Kamesan AC adapter should also incorporate ripple
reduction circuitry.
