Do you have the rear panel switch on? Pin 8 is in parallel with the front panel pushbutton, so it will power on/off the KPA500 under the same conditions as the front panel power button.

The interface diagram on pg 25 of the manual shows pins 8 and 12 can be momentarily shorted to control the power. (#8 grounded) My plan is to do this via a 1216 webswitch. But when I touch 8 and 12 together, nothing happens. I've checked and verified all plugs tight and pins are correct. Possibly I need to pull 8 low with -12volts? I know a lot of you leave your amp in STBY all the time but I'd like the flexibility to turn it off and on remotely with extra contacts on the webswitch.
