Reset (hole)
Insert pin into hole for about 10 seconds to reset the Static IP
address.
2
Power LED
Green indicates the system has adequate power and is
operating normally.
Red indicates the system is in stand-by mode. The Controller
hardware has power, but the embedded processor is shut off
and in the standby mode.
Off indicates that the system is not receiving power.
3
CPU Status LED
Green indicates the Host has evaluated the firmware currently
running and determined it is up to date.
Green flashing indicates the embedded system is ready
(running with DHCP IP address), but the embedded processor
has not established communications with the embedded
system.
Off indicates the embedded processor is resetting or is
powered up; and is booting the embedded firmware.
Red indicates the Host has determined the firmware needs to
be updated, but a problem occurred during the process that
will initiate a reset.
Red flashing indicates the embedded firmware is running, but
has not received a DHCP IP Address.
Amber indicates the Host is currently updating the embedded
firmware.
Amber flashing indicates the embedded system has a valid
link-local IP Address and is waiting to connect to the Host.
4
On/Off (hole)
Insert pin into hole for about eight seconds to place in standby
mode. Insert the pin again for about 1 second to take system
out of standby mode. The I/O power switch on the back of
Controller must be On (I) to enable this function. To turn the
power off for the entire system, flip the switch to Off (O).

HDMI Output
(8) 19-pin Type A HDMI female; digital video/audio outputs;
signal types HDMI, DVI—compatible with DVI/D (requires DVI
to HDMi adapter, not included), allowing DVI/D source signal
to be passed to displays. Limited to 185 MHz pixel clock.
2
Link
(8) 8-pin RJ45 female, shielded; HDBaseT compliant.Connect
to SmartLink inputs of SmartLink receivers or to HDBaseT
devices via single Cat5e, Cat6, or Cat7; Extends video and
bidirectional RS-232, IR and audio signals through a single
category cable.
3
LAN
(8) RJ45 10/100 Base-T, auto-negotiating port with Link/
Activity LEDs.
4
Fuse
100-240V, 2.5A—Fast acting fuse. This is field-replaceable.
5
I/O
On/Off switch -
I is used to power the controller to the On state.
O is used to power the controller to the Off state.

HDM Input
(8) 19-pin Type A HDMI female; digital video/audio inputs;
signal types HDMI/DVI

S/PDIF Digital Coax
(8) S/PDIF Outputs (Digital Coax, RCA connectors)—for
example, can be used in conjunction with the SmartAudio 16
SSA-1620 Audio Matrix Switcher
9
RS232
(8) RJ45 female-connector ports used to transmit and receive
serial binary data.
10
IR
(8)IR Inputs and (8) IR Outputs - Uses four-pin screw down
connectors (3.81mm).
The IR IN ports receive IR commands from a Savant controller
with IR control or third party IR control box and send them over
the Cat5e, Cat6, or Cat7 port (SmartLink) to the distant ends
IR output port to control devices in that zone. Conversely, IR
OUT ports can drive an IR emitter(blaster) with IR commands
received from the distant ends IR IN port.
NOTE: IR IN and OUT ports are 5V tolerant only.
11
Link/Activity LED
Green indicates an Ethernet link has been established.
Green flashing indicates Ethernet activity.
Off indicates an Ethernet link has not been established.
12
Speed LED
Green indicates an Ethernet speed of 100 Mb.
13
LAN
(1) RJ45 10/100 Base-T, auto-negotiating port with Link/
Activity LEDs (same as Items 11 and 12). Through this
Ethernet port, the SLN-88BT provides a single-point
connection to a home network or corporate LAN.

Debug / RS232
(1) RJ45 female-connector serial port port—typically used for
debug or optionally for control from a Savant Controller or third
party control box

Controller RJ-45 (RS-232) Plug Pinouts
Interconnect the Network
The SLN-88BT requires business class/commercial grade network equipment in order to handle
the IP traffic between Savant SmartSystems™ network equipment. When configuring the
network ensure that all of the connected Savant units (including SLN-88BT, HST-series and
SVR-series) are on the same local area network (subnet or LAN).
Network Changes Require Rebooting the SLN-88BT
The embedded processor used in the SmartLink needs to be rebooted after switching to a new
network with a new IP address range. If you do not reboot, the SLN-88BT will not sense the
network and IP address changes. The Status LED on the front panel of the SLN-88BT will start
to flash.
Replacing or Checking Fuse
To replace or check the fuse on the SLN-88BT, do the following:
1. On the input power block, open the cover (hinged) to access the fuse cartridge. Refer to the
illustrations below.
2. Using a thin, flat tool remove the red cartridge.
Debug Wiring
Controller RJ-45 (RS-232) Plug Pinouts
Important
If you are using RJ-45 to DB-9 adapters not supplied by Savant, be sure to terminate any wires
required for communication/control within the adapter. Ensure that all wires required for
communication/control are not terminated in the connecter. Also, ensure that the unused wires in
the connector are cut to prevent them shorting out, as they are still terminated in the RJ-45
connector on the controller side
IR Port Layout and Pinouts
Important: Before removing the fuse, note how and where the fuse is mounted in the
3. Remove the existing fuse and replace with a new one.
4. Re-install the cartridge. Note that the cartridge fits in only one direction.
ELECTRIC SHOCK: The 100-240V AC, 50-60 Hz source power poses an electric shock
cartridge. The fuse must be replaced at the same location. Refer to the
illustration below.
