Ashly WR-1.5 Quick Manual

The WR-1.5 combines the level control capability of the WR-1 and the pre-
set recall capability of the WR-2. A single potentiometer and four position rotary
switch offer independent control of level and preset recall, and can be wired to the
same or different hosting devices.
Compatible Ashly products include:

● NE 8800, 4800, and 4400 DSP processors (using logic I/O)
● PEMA™ power amplifiers
* Remote level control only, no preset recall
Power and mounting - The WR-1.5 is a passive controller and thus requires
no power other than the +5VDC provided by the hosting unit for level control. The WR-1.5 mounts
to a standard US electrical wall box. Ashly recommends connecting the box to earth ground to avoid
static discharge into the host device.
Remote Level Control - The WR-1.5 connects to the host unit's remote level control pins as
shown below. The connected CV input must also be assigned in Protea
level control function, found in or plugged into the DSP section of the desired remote gain location.
Preset Recall - The five preset recall wires connect to the host unit's preset recall or logic
I/O connector, if available*. The four switch positions might correspond directly to the first four
numbered presets stored in the host unit's internal memory, or may be assigned a logic I/O function.
Labels - Windows are provided for level and preset labels. Units ship from the factory with
"Level" and "1-4" labels installed, but they can be easily replaced (see below) with a user-editable
label document available on the Ashly website under Downloads>Application Notes for the WR-1.5.
