Would be good if "remote-on" would be possible as well. Possible options include serial command, a dedicated I/O-line, or control lines of a serial port. Such a setup could also be a nice basis for remote operation, including dead man switch type setups, power sequencing and so on. Going a bit outside the scope of the post I'm replying to, such a sequencing could also be useful for a later setup of a KPA1500, and a "headless" box similar to K3/K3S, with a RemoteRig-type control. Small controller unit to power on both the KPA1500 and the headless box as requested by RemoteRig interface, then operate as normal. Allow controller unit to include a timer, disconnect on lost connectivity to the RemoteRig, etc. Couple of remote GPIO, to allow for sensors based on users need (someone entered the room? Ambient temperature? Temperature at amp chassis?), and things are starting to look very good for remote users.
