WR-1.5 Remote Control
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.

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
ne
Software using a remote
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.
