Introduction
The FR-8 and FR-16 are Ethernet-based remote control devices for Ashly Ethernet compatible
products with DSP capabilities, including the Ashly ne24.24M, NE two-channel amplifiers (with DSP),
NE multichannel power amplifiers (with DSP), ne8800/4800 processors, and all Pema power ampli-
fiers. The FR-8 has eight assignable faders with a master fader, and the FR-16 has 16 faders with a
master fader. Each fader can be assigned to control an input or output DSP gain function, or assigned to
control an output mixer. Fader scaling is available whereby the user can set a maximum and minimum
value for each fader. The master fader provides an overall level control for selected faders. Buttons
above each fader provide mute control with LED, can indicate signal level for that channel with user
defined LED transition points, and will indicate communication failure with the target device. Each
unit is powered by Power over Ethernet (PoE), or by an external PoE injector, and has automatic IP
addressing. A clear window opening is provided above and below each fader to allow insertion of user
defined labels which are available as a document template on the Ashly website. The FR-8 and FR-16
are designed to mount to a standard four or seven-gang US electrical wall box array, can be mounted to
any flat surface using the cutout template found on page 9, or can be used as a desktop device.
When the FR remote is first connected or powered on, it attempts to communicate with all
devices it has been programmed to control, if any. Once communication with the targeted device(s)
is established, it waits to transmit any fader or switch position data to the targeted device until
a control is physically changed by the user, and then only the data for that control. This feature
prevents sudden and unexpected changes when reconnecting or re-starting the FR remote, as well as
when a new preset is recalled to the host device. When in doubt, make sure all faders are either in
the correct position or fully down before reconnecting.
