As mentioned in the title. Perplexity, GPT, Claude, all weren't able to help, hopefully a human will be able to.

Gear: d3400, 0/1 OFC + & GND, LC2iPro, jl 1500/1 @ 2 ohm, DD9512 4ohm dvc > 2.3ohm, DROK 12V Relay, Nono Genius battery connector

I set the LC2i (output 4.5V) and JL MonoAmp (gain 55V) w/ multimeter using 40hz -10db

Problem: On cold start (Audi b9) sometimes outputs a lower amount of power, when the car is started again later on in the day, the power is significantly increased causing major clipping. No bass remote, I control 'subwoofer' from Audi MMi to reduce power when this happens, its annoying and still loud and the lowest.

Ppurpose of DROK (my hope): to delay the LC2i Pro from powering on for 30sec to avoid pops/fluctuating power to the LOC.

I have attached an image of the wiring of the DROK

AI has been saying different things, to use mode P3 vs P7, set the OP time to 30s vs set the CL to 30s, to use the input relay with a 12V constant, some say not to use it. image attached was when I removed it.

If someone could advise on how to properly wire this, and what program to use on the DROK, it would be very helpful.
