The KPA has system settings that apply globally as well as rig settings that are saved per rig (patch). These can be accessed by pressing the "System" and "Rig" buttons, respectively.

System Settings
LED/Display Settings
Pages 1-3 of the System menu contains numerous parameters for controlling the colors and brightness of not only the main display but also various sets of buttons and LEDs.
Init and Factory Settings
Page 1 contains some helpful functions for first-time initialization or restoring your KPA to its factory state.
- Edit Owner - allows editing the owner name and profiler name
- Init Globals - resets global system (and output?) settings to their defaults (will not delete/change rigs)
- Startup Dialog - takes the user through the first-time dialog that appears to set the system date/time and owner name
- Factory Rigs - reloads the factory rigs onto the KPA (if you deleted them)
LFC (Low Frequency Correction)
Starting in FW 2.5 (?), the KPA included this parameter. It is extremely useful for metal tones where there is lots of low-end frequencies, especially on mutes. Essentially you get more/tighter bass with LFC turned on. If you look up older A/B comparisons of the KPA profile vs. the reference amp for metal tones, you can usually notice that the KPA tone sounds a bit brighter/thinner than the reference. Newer comparisons using LFC are virtually identical.
The parameter is a little confusing because by default LFC is turned on. There is a checkbox to turn it off called "LFC Off". So, if the checkbox is checked, that means LFC is turned off, and the KPA will function as it did before FW 2.5 (?).
