Rd-8C And Rw-8C Remote Control; Programmable Remote Control - Ashly ne4250 Operating Manual

Operating Manual - NE Multi Channel Power Amplifier
RD-8C or RW-8C Remote Control - The RD-8C and
RW-8C are remote level controllers which are connected to the
amplifier's Data Port, and are phantom powered from the ampli-
fier. They can only be used in NE amplifiers which have DSP
installed, and are used in conjunction with the "Remote Gain"
pluggable DSP tool placed in an input or output in software.
Maximum cable length is 1000 ft using #24 gauge twisted
pair. The RD-8C is a desktop controller, while the RW-8C is
electronically the same but mounts as a wall plate using a stan-
dard North American 4-gang electrical box and connects using
a Euroblock.. There are eight channels and a master, each with
a fader control and an on/off button. Note: Only one RD-8C
can be used per amplifier, and use of an RD-8C will exclude
the use of the data port for a WR-5. One or the other remote
control device may be connected, but not both
WR-5 Programmable Remote Con-
trol - The WR-5 is a programmable button
remote control which mounts into a standard
North America electrical wall box and con-
nects to an amplifier data port using four con-
ductor wire. Maximum cable length is 1000
ft using #24 gauge twisted pair. A decora
cover plate (not included) can be purchased
at hardware stores to cover the WR-5 electri-
cal box and satisfy the aesthetic needs of the
installation. The WR-5 is phantom powered
from the amplifier. Up to four different WR-5
remotes can be wired in series, and more can
be added by using an Ashly RPS-18 remote
power supply.
WR-5 buttons are programmed from Protea
number in its WR-5 device window. Each button has a status LED. Controlled functions include preset recall/scroll, and in
amplifiers with DSP installed, functions include mute, zone source selection, individual channel and matrix point level control.
Note: To use the WR-5 as a remote level control, a (ne)WR-5 Remote Gain tool must be placed in one of the DSP processing
blocks of the channels(s) to be controlled. presuming that amplifier has DSP installed. A windowed mylar pocket is available
to insert custom function button labels.
The Ashly RPS-18 remote power supply is required when more than four WR-5 remotes are connected to one amplifier.
