Operating Manual - ne8800, ne4800, ne4400 DSP Processor
10.6 FR-8 and FR-16 Networked Fader Controller
The FR-8 (shown) and FR-16 (not shown) are eight and
16 channel programmable fader remote control devices which
connect to the NE processor over an Ethernet network . Each
fader can be assigned in Protea
one or more channels . A pushbutton LED switch associated
with each fader shows signal level/clip for audio signals
controlled by that fader and can be assigned mute function or
A/B source select for that fader . The FR-8 and FR-16 devices
can mount to a wall box, panel cutout, or remain freestanding .
Power is from an IEEE 802 .3af Power over Ethernet
(PoE) switch, hub, or in-line PoE injector . A back panel
lockout connection is available to disable all controls using a
key switch .
The FR-8 or FR-16 appears in the Protea
control . Labels can be inserted behind the mylar overlay to properly identify custom programmed fader and button functions .
10.7 neWR-5 Networked Programmable Button Controller
The neWR-5 remote control is a networked version of the WR-
5, using Ethernet instead of the Data Port to communicate with the NE
processor . Connecting and powering the neWR-5 is done using Cat-5
Ethernet cable and an IEEE 802 .3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch,
hub, or in-line PoE injector . If PoE is unavailable, the Ashly RPS-18 (sold
separately) is a 15-48VDC power supply capable of at least 2 watts per
neWR-5 and can be hard wired to the back of the neWR-5 . PoE current
draw is 38mA @48VDC and 80mA@15VDC . A decora cover plate
(not included) can be purchased at hardware stores to cover the neWR-5
electrical box and satisfy the aesthetic needs of the installation .
The neWR-5 appears in the Protea
must be assigned to the NE processor under control . The neWR-5 has six
programmable function buttons which can light up green, red, or amber to
display status . Further information on LED status is found in the neWR-5
owner's manual available on the Ashly website . To the right of the function
buttons is a pocket in the mylar overlay for a printed function label
(template available on website) to be inserted . The two other buttons are
used to adjust function parameters such as gain or preset number, and are
indicated by the LED display .
There is also a hard-wired Lock-Out feature on the neWR-5, where the closing of a switch wired to the lockout
Euroblock renders all buttons inactive .
