store in a convenient place for future reference. If the password is forgotten, a limited password reset can be done by pressing 
and holding the factory reset switch for two seconds during power up. Note: Holding the reset switch for a full 10 seconds dur-
ing power up will perform a full factory reset, changing all presets to the factory default.
9.5 Metering
Separate software tabs allow for input/output metering in dBu, as well as dynamics metering in dB.
10 REMOTE CONTROL
Ashly makes several remote control options which can be used 
with the ne24.24M.   The WR-1, WR-1.5, and WR-2 are passive wall-box 
mounted remotes which can adjust volume or select presets.  The WR-5 
and neWR-5 are active programmable button controllers with user de-
ned button functions and an LED display, also wall-box installed.  Each 
requires a standard decora plate, purchased separately. 
The RD-8 and FR-8/16 are programmable fader remotes, and do 
not require an additional decora plate.
10.1 WR-1 Volume Control
The WR-1 is an assignable, dual potentiometer remote volume 
control  for the  ne24.24M.  Each  volume  control  is  connected to  a ter-
minal block on the WR-1 circuit board, which in turn must be wired to 
the  ne24.24M back  panel  euroblock  connector 
labeled “0 - 5 Volt Remote Level Control”. Do 
not connect the WR-1 remote level control ground 
to any other external grounds.  By connecting a 
volume control to a specic pin (1-8),  that pin 
can be assigned in an input or output main control 
surface "Remote" tool to control level.  It is pos-
sible to simultaneously select the same input or 
output channel to multiple remote level control 
pins. Note, however, that the resulting attenua-
tion on that channel is cumulative, meaning that 
channel’s gain is set by combining the value of 
all remote level controls assigned to that channel.
In addition to using a WR-1 as the con-
trol device, the remote level control feature can 
be  used  for  relay  activated  muting  of  selected 
channels, as in a re alarm application.  Level 
control is “attenuate only” meaning that the maxi-
mum setting of the control potentiometer (fully 
clockwise) results in 0 dB gain of the controlled 
channel. A  label  template can  be  found on  the 
Ashly website for printing input or output channel 
names under control of the WR-1 and sliding the 
paper behind the mylar overlay windows.
The two +5V pins and two ground pins 
on the WR-1 euroblock connector are tied together on the circuit board, so it is only necessary to run one +5V line and one 
ground line to the WR-1 from the ne24.24M. These pins are provided for daisy-chaining multiple WR-1 controllers together.
