IMPORTANT! Module Installation Precautions

ELECTRIC DISCONNECT!

Power Oﬀ the controller by setting the power switch on the rear of the chassis to Oﬀ (O) and remove the power cord before inserting or removing any module from the SmartMediaPro chassis. Failure to do so may cause damage to the equipment.

IMPORTANT! Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Warning:

Observe the following precautions to avoid damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD) when handling modules.

Use an approved ESD wrist or ankle-grounding strap. Ensure the grounding strap makes good skin

•

contact.

Connect the clip end of the ground strap to a threaded grounding stud on the chassis.

•

When returning a replaced module to Savant, place the module in the ESD approved clamshell package

•

in which it was originally shipped in or a static shielding bag.

NOTE:

The wrist strap only protects the component from ESD voltages on the body; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.

Module Installation

Refer to IMPORTANT! Module Installation Precautions above before installing module.

1. Power Oﬀ the SmartMediaPro Chassis using the power switch located on the rear of the chassis and disconnect the AC power cord.

2. Remove the two (2) M3 x 6 mm retaining screws. Set screws aside as they will be used later in procedure.

3. Align the module board with the two rails located at the bottom of the opening and gently slide the module all the way until a slight resistance is felt. This is where the connector on the rear of the board gets seated into the chassis connector.

4. Gently press on the module the rest of the way until it seats into the connector at the rear of the slot and the plate seats against the chassis.

5. Insert the screws removed in step 2 and tighten.

6. Make note of the slot the module was installed as it will be needed for Blueprint conﬁguration.

Note:

CTS/RTS handshaking is supported for ﬂow control based on the proﬁle used in the conﬁguration.

RS-422/RS-485 Wiring

RJ-45 to DB9 Adapters

Savant oﬀers RJ-45 to DB9 adapters in a variety of conﬁgurations that can be used for RS-232/422/485 control.

Refer to the RS-232 Conversion to DB9 and RS-422/485 Pinout Application Note located on the Savant Community for more information on RJ-45 to DB9 adapters.

IMPORTANT! If you are using RJ-45 to DB9 adapters not supplied by Savant:

Ensure that any wires required for communication/control are terminated within the adapter.

•

Ensure that all wires NOT required for communication/control are NOT terminated in the connecter.

•

Ensure that the unused wires in the connector are cut to prevent them from shorting out, as they are still

•

terminated in the RJ-45 connector on the controller side.

IR Wiring

IR connections are made using 6-pin Screw Down Plug-in Connectors supplied with the controller. The wire slips into the hole and locks with a screw located at the top of the connector.

IMPORTANT! IR Wiring Precautions

Ensure that all IR emitters are within 15 feet (4.6 meters) from the location of the controller.

•

Use of 3rd party ﬂashing IR emitters with Talk Back is not recommended. These types of emitters can

•

draw voltage away from the IR signal that can degrade IR performance.

Savant requires the use of business class/commercial grade network equipment throughout the network to ensure the reliability of communication between devices. These higher quality components also allow for more accurate troubleshooting when needed.

Device Network Connections

Connect all Savant devices to the same local area network (LAN) or subnet as the host. Savant recommends not implementing any type of traﬃc or packet shaping in your network topology for the Savant devices as this may interfere with performance.

Managing IP Addresses

To ensure that the IP Address will not change due to a power outage, a static IP Address or DHCP reservation should be conﬁgured. Savant recommends using DHCP reservation within the router. By using this method, static IP Addresses for all devices can be managed from a single UI avoiding the need to access devices individually.

Setting a Static IP Address

Refer to the Retrieving and Setting IP Addresses for Savant Devices - Application Note located on the Savant Community.

Setting DHCP Reservation

Setting DHCP reservation varies from router to router. Refer to the documentation for the router to conﬁgure DHCP reservation.

Network Changes

After connecting to a new network, changing routers, or if the IP Address range is changed in the current router, Savant recommends the following steps to refresh the IP connection and ensure that the SmartMediaPro is communicating with the network correctly.

To refresh the IP connection, perform one of the following steps:

Cycle Power

•

1. Disconnect the controller from the AC power source.

2. Wait 15 seconds and then reconnect.

Hot Plug the Ethernet (LAN) Connection

•

1. Disconnect the controller from the AC power source.

2. Wait 15 seconds and then reconnect.
