Operating Manual - NE Multi Channel Power Amplifier

The WR-5is a microprocessor based remote control unit which can be used with the NE multi- channel amplifiers. The WR-5 is designed to fit into a standard electrical wall box. Up to four WR-5 remotes can be phantom powered from one ampli- fier, and adding more remotes is possible using an external power supply. Each of six buttons on the WR-5 can be programmed to engage one of the fol- lowing functions:

1) Preset recall

2) Preset scroll

3) Channel volume

4) Channel mute

5) Zone input source selection (requires DSP)

Programming of each button is done from Pro-

tea Software when the WR-5 is wired to its host NE am- plifier, and the amplifier is connected to a PC via ethernet. Up to four WR-5 units can be daisy-chained from the same amplifier. See your Ashly dealer or visit the Ashly web site at www.ashly.com for more WR-5 details.

RD-8C or RW-8C Remote Control

A second microprocessor based controller, the Ashly RD-8C,is an eight channel wall mount level controller that uses slide faders for individual channel and master level control and mute. NOTE: When an RD-8C is used, no other microprocessor based remotes can be used.

WR-1 Remote Level Control

Individual amplifier channels can have remote level control using a potentiometer assembly such as the Ashly WR-1 and four conductor wire. The WR-1 is a dual po- tentiometer remote volume control designed to fit in a stan- dard wall electrical box. Each volume control is connected to a terminal block on the WR-1 circuit board, which in turn must be wired to the amplifier back panel euroblock connector labeled "Remote Level Control" as shown. Do not connect the WR-1 remote level control ground to any other external grounds.
