K3s - KPA500

[Buck]

Someone please help me out because I can't find the answer.

K3s and KPA500 - I know there is a setting so the K3 will know the amp
is in OPER state and automatically reduce the drive to 25 or so watts.
Then when you put the amp in STBY of OFF, the K3 will go to 100 watts.

My Amp and K3 are talking to each other for band changes etc but I can't
get the power to automatically reduce as described.

What am I missing?  Point me to the page in the manual

I think you have to set the power to required setting in Operate mode the first time. The radio will reset to full or low when amp Mode is selected after that.
