Wiring and Connections
RS-232 Wiring
The RS-232 ports follow the Savant standard with pin 5 as RXD
(receive) and pin 6 as TXD (transmit). The diagram below shows
the wiring for the HRX-SLN501 side of the cable, the wiring on the
opposite side may vary based on the devices pin configuration.
RJ-45 to DB9 Adapters
Savant o
ff
ers 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 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 4-pin Screw Down Plug-in
Connector supplied with receiver. 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 3
rd
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.
