4. 5VDC Remote Level Control - All models have a 10 pin euroblock connector for accommodating up to eight user defined remote DC level controls. Use an Ashly WR-1 remote attenuator (or equivalent 10K potentiometer), along with a remote gain block placed within the software DSP section to assign remote level control to any channel’s input or output section . Wire the 5VDC Remote Control ground to the CCW pin of the remote control potentiometer, wire +5 to the CW pin, and wire the control pin (1-8) to the potentiometer wiper . -
