WR-5e NE Product Remote Control

1. Introduction

 The WR-5e is a microprocessor based remote control unit for most Ashly NE products.  Com-

patible products currently include Pema amplifiers, ne8800 and ne4800 system processors, the 

ne24.24M matrix processor, and all models of the NE multichannel (four or eight channel) power 

amplifiers.  Additional products may become available in the future.  Using Protea NE software, 

six function select buttons and two parameter adjust buttons are available to control a limited range 

of assigned functions within their host product.  Up to four WR-5e units can be daisy-chained and 

phantom powered from one NE product, and even more can be added using an in-line power supply 

adapter such as the Ashly RPS-18. 

Note: If a WR-5e is used with a NE host product, no other serial

communications devices, including the Ashly RD-8C, may be used with that product.

The WR-5e is designed 

to fit into a European electrical 

wall box, but functionally is 

the same as the WR-5.  Elec-

trical connections to the host 

unit are made using a four 

conductor low gauge wire 

terminated with euroblock 

connectors.  There is also a 

two pin jumper labelled “J6” 

which requires the provided 

female jumper to be installed 

in specific situations (see sec-

tion 2).  

A standard decora 

plate (not included) can be 

purchased separately to cover 

the WR-5e electrical box and 

satisfy the aesthetic needs of 

the installation. 

Note: Avoid static shock disruptions to connected devices by mounting the WR-5e to an earth-

grounded metal wall box, or by earth-grounding a metal decora plate. This prevents any static

discharge from flowing through the data lines.

Each of six buttons on the WR-5e can be programmed through Protea NE Software to engage 

one of the following functions (if available):  preset recall, preset scroll, gain control, channel en-

gage/mute, zone source selection, logic output active high, logic output active low, and matrix mixer, 

with a green LED next to each button to display active status.  To the right of each button is a pocket 

in the mylar overlay for a paper function label to be inserted.  The two other buttons are used to ad-

just function parameters, indicated by the LED display.
