REMOTES
FR-8 and FR-16 are Ethernet devices that provide fader-based
remote level control for Ashly products having DSP capa-
bilities. The FR-8 controls up-to eight user assigned inputs,
outputs, or mixer outputs, and the FR-16 controls up-to 16.
Both models are powered using Class-2 IEEE 802.3af Power
over Ethernet (PoE), or by an external PoE injector when
PoE is unavailable. Ethernet communication with this device
is made by wiring it with standard Cat-5 cable terminated
with an RJ-45 connector through an Ethernet network router,
switch, hub, or patch panel to a Windows™ PC running
our Protea™ ne Software v5.10 or higher. Each connect
to Ethernet using a standard RJ-45, as well as Neutrik's
etherCON™ heavy duty RJ-45 and will automatically assign
their IP address.
Each channel fader can control input gain, output gain, or
mixer gain levels as assigned in software. The master fader
provides an overall level control for user assigned faders, or
can be disabled. Assignable fader scaling allows the user to
place an upper and lower limit on the range of level control
for each individual fader. A clear window is provided above
and below each fader for the insertion of user defined labels,
available on the Ashly website as a document template.
The FR-8 will mount to a standard 4-gang US electrical
wall box, and the FR-16 will mount to a modular 7-gang
US wall box. Alternately, the units can be mounted to a
flat surface with a cutout, or can be used as a freestanding
desktop device. On the rear panel, a Euroblock contact
closure can be connected to a keyed switch to lockout
all front panel controls, preventing any unwanted changes.
