Chassis Installation

CAUTION!

 

Ventilation for the SVR-5200S is provided by air entering through 

the gap around the bottom cover and then exiting through the vent 

at the rear of the host. Ensure that when the SVR-5200S is placed 

there are no obstructions to the airflow around the bottom cover or 

rear of the host.

Rack Installation

The SVR-5200S can be rack mounted using the RCK-3000-xx 

(purchased separately) which provides easy access to the SVR-5200S 

via a removable faceplate and sliding shelf. The open shelf design 

provides proper ventilation and easy access to wiring.

Network Requirements

Savant requires the use of commercial grade network equipment 

throughout the network to ensure the reliability of communication 

between devices. 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

 IMPORTANT!

 

Use of the Host Wi-Fi connection may result in control or 

connectivity issues.

Network Configuration

To ensure that the IP Address will not change due to a power outage, 

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 DHCP reservation varies from router to router. Refer to the 

documentation for the router to configure DHCP reservation.

Network Changes

After connecting to a new network, changing routers, or if the IP  

Address range is changed in the current router, Savant recommends 

the following steps. This will reset any IP connection and ensure that 

the host is communicating with the network correctly.

Hot Plug the Ethernet (LAN) Connection

1.  Disconnect the Ethernet (LAN) connection from the host.
2.  Wait 15 seconds and then reconnect.

Precautions

 

SURGE PROTECTION!

 

Use a surge-protected circuit for all components and power 

supplies requiring 120-240V AC 50/60 Hz source power.

 ELECTRICAL DISCONNECT!

  

The 120-240V AC 50/60 Hz source power outlet and input power 

sockets should be easily accessible in the event of an electrical 

hazard or malfunction condition.

Power Management Recommendations

Savant recommends a pure sine wave uninterruptible power supply 

(UPS) with the ability to shut down the SVR-5200S before the battery 

runs out of power. Never remove power from the SVR-5200S before 

shutting it down.
