    The PAV-SIPA125SM, PAV-AOM8C, and PAV-AOMBAL8C have GPIO ports which share the same wiring. General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) ports are binary I/O ports used by Savant controllers to trigger actions within the system. GPIO actions may be configured to control a device, such as turning on an amplifier (output), or detecting a device state change (input) to perform a triggered workflow.

    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, IP Addresses for all devices can be managed from a single UI avoiding the need to access devices individually.
  • Page 37: Dns (Add, Remove, Query)

    DNS (Add, Remove, Query) Setting DNS is only relevant for devices with a built in Savant Music stream. Follow the instructions below to add, remove, or query the DNS servers configured for IP Audio devices. Open a terminal window on a MacBook/SDE.
  • Page 38: Appendix B: Ups Recommendations

    Appendix B: UPS Recommendations Savant does not recommend any brand or model UPS, however there are a couple of factors that should be considered. It is important that the UPS does not only work during complete power loss but protects devices and their functionality during events like surges and brownouts. It is not uncommon for a residence or small business to see variations in power service that do not result in a complete black-out.
