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 Customer 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 connector.
•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 Wiring
IR connections are made using 6-pin Screw Down Plug-in
Connectors supplied with controller. The wire slips into the hole and
locks with the 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 controllers location.
•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.
IR Pinout
Note:
While not shown in the diagram above, IR connections 4 to 6 follow
the same wiring as 1 to 3.
GPIO Wiring
General Purpose Input/Outputs (GPIO) are binary I/O ports used on
Savant controllers to trigger an action within the system. Events
can control a device, such as turning on an amplifier (output) or
detecting a state change for a device (input) to perform a workflow.
Pins 2-8 are used for input or output depending on configuration.
GPIO Pinout
Relay Wiring
Relay ports are used when a device is controlled via a normally
open (NO) or normally closed (NC) relay.

Network Requirements
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 Customer
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
Savant recommends performing one of the following steps to
refresh the IP connection after connecting to a new network,
changing routers, or if the IP Address range is changed in the
current router. This will reset any IP connection and ensure that the
host is communicating with the network correctly.
•Cycle Power
1. Disconnect the controller from the DC power source
2. Wait 15 seconds and then reconnect.
•Hot Plug the Ethernet (LAN) Connection
1. Disconnect the Ethernet (LAN) connection from the
controller.
2. Wait 15 seconds and then reconnect.
Additional Information
Refer to the following documents located on the Savant Customer
Community for additional information.
