GPIO Input
: When configured as an input the
processor will look for a low (<0.8V DC) or a high
(>2.4V DC) state.
Minimum 0V DC / Maximum 12V DC.
GPIO Output
: When configured as an output, the
port provides a binary output of 0-12V
DC 150mA max.

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. Pin 2 is used for
input or output depending on configuration.
GPIO Pull Down Resistor (PD) Usage
GPIO pins are configured as inputs and are pulled high to 12V while the
host is booting up. To make the GPIO signal low during a host reboot
and/or a power cycle, attach the GPIO 1 pin to the PD pin. The PD pin
is a 1K ohm pull down resistor (to signal ground) which keeps the GPIO
output below 0.8V during processor boot times.
Making Connections
1. Remove Power if power is applied.
2. Pull to remove the terminal block from the rear of the controller.
3. With a small flat bladed screwdriver,
turn the screws on the top of the
connector counterclockwise until
the silver crimps in the front of the
connector opens enough to slide the
wire(s) into the square slots.
4. Strip back the insulation on each of
the wires ¼ inch. Insert the stripped
wires into their proper ports. Do not
allow more than 1/8 inch of bare wire
exposed.
5. Turn the screws clockwise until the screw tightens around the wire.
Tug on the wire a bit to verify the wires are installed securely.
6. Continue until all wires are installed.
7. Repeat steps 3 - 5 for any additional IR devices.
8. Plug terminal block back into the rear of the controller.
9. Reapply power.
Expansion
Savant AVB devices can be connected in a single system. Providing a
virtual audio switch. That can be configured to suit almost any need.
See the
Savant IP Audio Deployment Guide
