The Savant S2 Host Rack Mountable (SHR-S2-xx) is a compact, rack-mountable device designed to serve as a central control unit within a Savant smart home or commercial automation system. It acts as the "brain" of the system, managing various connected devices and executing automation workflows.

Function Description:

The S2 Host is a network-connected controller that facilitates communication between different components of a Savant system, including audio/video equipment, lighting, climate control, security systems, and more. It processes commands from user interfaces (such as Savant apps or remotes) and translates them into actions for the connected devices. The host supports both wired (Ethernet) and wireless (Wi-Fi) network connectivity, allowing for flexible deployment. It features a range of input/output ports for direct integration with various devices, including RS-232 for serial control, IR for infrared control, GPIO for general-purpose input/output, and Relay for basic on/off switching. The device also includes an optical audio input for integrating audio sources.
