L-12/L-16 Modular Control SurfaCe
The Wheatstone L-12 and L-16 are a 12- and 16-fader version of the L-8 control surface.
The L-12/L-16 is powered by a Wheatstone Model PSE-L rackmount power supply (see next
page for details). Other then the physical dimensions and two extra slots for the Accessory
panels, all other aspects of the L-12/L-16 are the same as the L-8.
The L-12/L-16 audio control surface is designed for countertop placement. The rubber feet
on the bottom keep the surface from being easily moved when simply placed on the counter.

Power and Ethernet Connections
Ethernet
Power
The L-12/L-16 control surface is powered by a Wheatstone Model PSE-L rackmount
power supply. This unit occupies a single 19" wide rack space.
Note the power supply should be mounted in an equipment rack within fteen feet of
the control surface.
Once the supply is rackmounted, it should be connected to
the control surface using the factory supplied cable. The power
and Ethernet connectors are mounted on the Host Controller card
(HC-L8 PCB) located behind the control surface’s rear panel.
Unscrew the rear panel to make power and Ethernet connections.
The power jack at the left of the HC-L8 PCB is for the power
connection. The factory supplied power cable has coaxial power
jacks on the both ends to connect the L-12/L-16 to the PSE-L DC
OUT connector.
The RJ-45 connector on the right part of the HC-L8 PCB provides control surface
connection to a standard Ethernet network switch via a straight (pin to pin) CAT5 cable.
Note that there is a clearance opening at the bottom of the rear panel for cable passage.

L-12/L-16 / June 2020
Note each power supply is tted with a 3-wire grounded AC cord that
should be plugged into a “clean” AC power source, that is, an AC source
that feeds only the control room audio gear. This source should be a separate
feed from those powering lighting, air-conditioning, or any other non-audio
machinery. The third pin ground wire of the AC source should be tied to
the central system ground point.
The power feed recom-
mended in the text is often
installed and referred to in
studios as an “isolated AC
ground” outlet. It is usually
orange in color.
Energizing
Assuming the L-12/L-16 control surface mainframe is properly placed, and its PSE-L
power supply correctly rackmounted and connected to the control surface, you may now
energize the rackmount power supply by plugging it into theAC mains. The power supply’s
front panel green “POWER” LED should light up to indicate that the power supply is on.
The control surface’s switches will assume factory default settings.
Note: To de-energize the control surface, unplug the rackmount power supply’s AC
cord from the AC mains. Never de-energize the control surface by disconnecting the
cable that connects the control surface and power supply together.

7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other ap‑
paratus (including ampliers) that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding‑type plug. A polarized plug
has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and
a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety.
If the provided plug does not t into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement
of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specied by the manufacturer.
12. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
13. Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus
has been damaged in any way, such as power‑supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has
been spilled or objects have fallen into an apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to
rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
14. DISCONNECTING DEVICE FROM MAINS – Main power cord plug is the disconnect‑
ing device. The power plug of an installed unit must remain readily accessible/operable
at all times.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of re or electric shock, do not
expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.

* In previous Navigator GUI versions this was the System 3rd Party Devices tab.
Adding The L-8/L-12 To The Peripheral Devices* Tab
NOTE: For the L-8/L-12 control surface software versions after v. 1.4.6
the following procedure is no longerneeded and should not be performed.
In order to utilize all the features of the L-8/L-12 control
surface the device must be added to the System Peripheral
Devices tab in the Wheatstone WheatNet-IP Navigator program
(aka the Navigator GUI). This sheet shows you the basics of that
procedure. Refer to the WheatNet‑IP Audio Over IP Network
Technical Manual for additional details.
You will need to know the IP address of the device being
added, so you will want to nd that out before you start.
Launch the Navigator GUI and make sure that System 0 is
selected in the System pane. You will see something like this:
Now select the Peripheral Devices tab.
Click the Add button to bring up the Add Peripheral
Device dialog:
Type in a convenient Name and insert the IP Address
of the device being added. Leave the TCP Port at the
default setting of 60021. From the Host BLADE drop
down select the BLADE that you want to associate the
Peripheral device with. Click Ok.
This completes the process of adding the device to
the Peripheral Devices tab. The added device should
show up in the System pane under the BLADE you
added it to. If it does not show up, or if it shows up but
has a yellow question mark on it, then there is either a
network issue that needs attention, or the device is not
connected to the network at all, or one or more steps
have been omitted or done incorrectly in the conguration process.
