- Save the configurations & Send the new profile into the savant host via Savant Application Manager
- After a few seconds, the driver should be started
Authentication
As soon as the driver begins to run it will attempt to authenticate with neat’s server – If authentication fails and/or a license has not been purchased (Plus processed – neat’s admin needs to confirm the order) the system will become unresponsive to commands after 24 Hours.
Anytime the host is restarted it will need to authenticate with neat’s server within 24 hours otherwise commands will become unresponsive.
The driver will try to call the neat server every 5 minutes to check for an available update.
Help
If everything is connected and there is no feedback on the driver and the alarm is not working from Savant check:
Ensure the driver is running with $ driver status
Correct Addresses in the lighting table
System Monitor > Component status, is the Security profile getting feedback from the network
Ensure the cable is plugged in correctly
Recheck the steps above
