Important Safety Information - Read First
Before installing, configuring, and operating Savant equipment and other
vendor equipment, Savant recommends that each dealer, integrator,
installer, etc. access and read all the required technical documentation.
Savant technical documentation can be located by visiting Savant.com.
Vendor documentation is supplied with the equipment.
Read and understand all safety instructions, cautions, and warnings in
this document and the labels on the equipment.
Safety Classifications in this Document
NOTE:
Provides special information for installing,
configuring, and operating the equipment.
IMPORTANT!
Provides special information that is critical to
installing, configuring, and operating the equipment.
CAUTION!
Provides special information for avoiding situations
that may cause damage to equipment.
WARNING!
Provides special information for avoiding situations
that may cause physical danger to the installer, end
user, etc.
Electric Shock Prevention
ELECTRIC SHOCK!
The source power poses an electric shock hazard that has the
potential to cause serious injury to installers and end users.
ELECTRICAL DISCONNECT:
The source power outlet and power supply input power sockets
should be easily accessible to disconnect power in the event of an
electrical hazard or malfunction.
Weight Injury Prevention
WEIGHT INJURY!
Installing some of the Savant equipment requires two installers to
ensure safe handling during installation. Failure to use two installers
may result in injury.

2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with dry cloth.
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 apparatus (including amplifiers) 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 is provided for your
safety. If the provided plug does not fit 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 specified by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by
the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used,
use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid
injury from tip over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for
long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified 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 the apparatus, the apparatus has been
exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has
been dropped.
15. To completely disconnect this equipment from the AC mains,
disconnect the power supply cord plug from the AC receptacle.

Amber Blinking: Embedded system has a valid link-local IP Address and is connecting to the host.
Amber: Host is updating the embedded firmware.
Off: Embedded processor is resetting, or is powered up, and is booting the embedded firmware.
Hardware Failure: If a hardware failure occurs, the status LED indication will be interrupted every three seconds with a solid red
indication. For example, if the LED is blinking green when a hardware failure occurs, the LED will alternate between blinking green
and solid red at three-second intervals.
