Operating Manual - ne24.24M Matrix Processor

8.2h Output Mute

Output Mute turns off an output channel. When an output channel is muted, that channel’s red mute LED on the face

panel is lit. To mute or unmute all outputs at once, go to the <Mute> menu heading.

9. OTHER SOFTWARE FUNCTIONS

9.1 Device Options

Flash Reprogram

The NE processor rmware (the internal program that runs the unit) can be updated/reprogrammed via the Ethernet

control connection. The new rmware le must be obtained directly from Ashly or through our web site, and installed accord-

ing to the <Flash Programmer> dialogue box. This process may take several minutes, and during the le transfer all channels

are muted and both sampling rate LEDs will be lit.

Link Conguration

Linking allows multiple DSP processing blocks on different channels or even different Ashly NE devices to track each

other. For example - if two graphic equalizers on different channels are linked, any change made to one of the equalizers will

result in an identical change to the other. Most DSP blocks can be linked to one of eight link groups. When a DSP function is

assigned to a link group, both a colored tab and the link group number appear beneath the DSP block icon. The link group’s tab

color, group name, and local/network (link across devices) status is assigned in the link conguration dialogue box. Note: If a

WR-5 or RD-8C is connected to a NE device, and a DSP function that can be controlled by the WR-5 or RD-8C (such as gain)

is linked across multiple devices, changes made by that WR-5 or RD-8C will only affect the host NE device. Linked changes

across devices must come from the NE software, not remotes.

Preset Switch Settings

This disables or enables the front panel preset select switch

Turn On Unmute Delay

All inputs and outputs are muted during device turn on, and this control determines the length of time it takes to unmute.

9.2 Preset Options

The Protea ne24.24M will store up to 31 named internal presets, each preset storing control data for all channels and

audio functions. Preset names must be 20 characters or less. While working in Protea NE Software, changes to an individual

preset can be saved to the ne24.24M using <File/Save Preset To Protea>, or saved to the PC using <File/Save Preset To Disk>.

Individual preset les use the extension (*.pne).

Sub Presets: Instead of saving or recalling an entire preset affecting all functions, a sub-preset affecting only a sub-set

of functions may be used. To save a sub-preset, check the boxed labelled <Selected for sub-presets> in the audio control functions

to be stored in the sub preset, and then click <preset options>, then <Save Sub Preset>. Since there are no user controls on the

ne24.24M, the only way to load presets is by using Protea NE Software to recall les saved on either the PC or the ne24.24M.

The exception to this is through the use of contact closures or the Ashly WR-5 wall-mounted remote control. Contact closures

can load presets 1-8 from the ne24.24M memory using switches wired to the rear panel contact closure connector block (see

sec. 5.4). Note: A preset recall event will overwrite any unsaved changes, so be sure the current conguration is saved before

continuing or it will be lost. The ne24.24M always loads the last working settings on power-up, so as to preserve any changes

should the power be inadvertently turned off prior to saving a preset. Caution: A new preset may have dramatically different

settings capable of damaging sound system components, so be careful not to recall the wrong preset while the system is on.

9.3 Copying Settings to Another Input Or Output

To quickly transfer all settings from one input or output to another input or output channel within the same unit, right

click on the channel number and choose from the available options to copy, paste, or link with another channel.

9.4 Security

There are multiple user/multiple levels of protection assignable to the ne24.24M within the software <Security> pull

down menu, from full access to view only, with User ID and Passwords assigned for each available unit. The ne24.24M security

data is stored within the unit, not Protea NE Software. Passwords are case sensitive. Be sure to write down the password and
