Overview
The RIO BRAVO IP Engine is a fully integrated DSP based engine from SAS. The high capacity small
footprint engine is designed to fit in any control room and provides all functions necessary for Radio Broadcast
operations. The RIO Bravo provides you with direct Ethernet connectivity. You can now control your SAS
32KD system using an internet web browser interface while maintaining compatibility with the traditional SAS
Router
Figure 1: RIO Bravo Overview

The 2RU aluminum front panel is polished and anodized gun metal blue. Indicator lights as follows:
Figure 2: RIO Bravo Front Panel
System Backup provides an SD card for saving and restoring frame system data and specifying initial IP
address information
V Digital indicator is solid blue when powering digital devices.
V Analog indicator is solid blue when powering analog devices.
Audio Link is solid green when Dante’s Ethernet is working and red when it is not.
Control Link light blinks green when engine is connected to the network.
Run light flashes green when engine is running.
Master light is solid green when engine operates single or when providing master clock with multiple engines.
Message light blinks green when a message is received over the link.
Error light blinks red when the RIO encounters an error.

Rear Panel
All installation and configuration devices for the RIO Bravo are located in the rear panel (see Figure 3):
Figure 3: RIO Bravo Rear Panel
J1 & J2 POWER: two connectors for feeding redundant power (+24 VDC) from SAS power supply.
J3 Dante PRIMARY & SECONDARY:dual RJ45 for connection to Dante AoIP network.
CONTROL LAN J4: for connection to your control network.
J5 1(L)/2(R) & J6 3(L)/4(R): two stereo 1/4” jacks for connection to monitoring devices. Note,TRS jacks in
parallel with RJ45 1-4: J5-1 (L) to J7-1; J5-2 (R) to J7-2; J6-1 (L) to J7-3; and J6-2 (R) to J7-4.
J7 1–8 ANALOG OUTPUTS: four RJ45 for connection to eight discrete analog outputs or four stereo. These
connectors also provide +12V DC that can power head phone amps. Note TRS jacks in parallel with RJ45 1-4:
J5-1 (L) to J7-1; J5-2 (R) to J7-2; J6-1 (L) to J7-3; and J6-2 (R) to J7-4.
J7 1–16 DIGITAL OUTPUTS: four RJ45 for connection to 16 discrete digital outputs or eight AES outputs
(4 AES outputs on first RJ45, 2 AES on next and 1 AES on two connectors). Digital Outputs 1-8 often used to
feed console meters, cue, talkback, and headphones.
J8 RELAYS: Two RJ45 for connection to a Timer (Relay 9=Stop, Relay 10=Run, Relay 11=Reset)
and a studio On Air light (Relay 12).
J9 GPIO 1 - 8: Eight RJ45 for connecting 8 relays out and logic in. Use these GPIO for reading external
switches, driving indicators, and other control functions in your studio. Relay on pins 1 & 2. Logic In close pin
7 to 8.
J10 SAS CONTROL PORTS 1 - 8: 2 RJ45 for connecting eight RS-485 control ports. You can connect a
console with up to 16 modules per RJ45 (up to 32 slots using both connectors).
J11 CONTROL PORTS 9 –16: 8 RJ45 for connecting to eight RS-485 ports. Use these to connect any SAS
controller including console modules. You can connect up to 4 controllers per port.
A1 –A6 SLOT: for connecting up to six I/O plugin modules (sold separately). Available modules provide
16 discrete analog or digital channels. Figure 4: Model RBAI-16 provides 8 Stereo (16 Mono) Analog Inputs;
Model RBDI-16 provides 8 AES3 (16 Mono); Model RBAO-16 provides 8 Stereo (16 Mono) Analog Outputs:
and the RBDO-16 provides 8 AES3 (16 Mono) outputs.

Getting Started
1. Connect power cord supplied by SAS to either RIO Bravo’s J1 or J2 connectors. Connect to both
when using redundant power supplies. Figure 5 below shows power cord connected to J1.
2. You should see the following lights on the front panel: V Digital, V Analog, Audio Link, Run, and
Master. You should also see the following lights on the rear panel: J3, J4, J7 Analog 1 –8, and J11
Control Ports 9 –16.
3. Connect RIO Bravo to your IP network using “CONTROL LAN J4” connector.
Figure 5: Rear Panel Power and Control Connections
4. Once you have successfully connected your RIO Bravo to the network, you’ll need to know its
temporary IP address in order to access the web server for programming and configuration. There
will be a tag with the IP address attached to the unit’s front panel. You can also find the IP address in
the “SYSCFG.TXT” file, which is contained on the SD card. Remove the SD card from the “System
Backup” slot in the front panel and use an SD card reader/writer to open and view its contents. The
‘SYSCFG.TXT” file should look like the one in Figure 6 below.
Figure 6: SYSCFG File
5. Open your web browser and type IP address. In our example, this address is 10.0.0.130.

6. Enter Username and Password and click Submit. In our example we are using the default username:
SASDefault and password: sas as shown in Figure 7 below. Note that you won’t see the password
on your screen. Also note that you can change both Username and Password if needed.
Figure 7: Web Interface Access
7. If you have successfully logged in you should see the screen shown in Figure 8.
Figure 8: RIO Bravo Web Server Menu
8. Notice the grayed items in the upper left. We will refer to these as the User Menu. We’ll briefly
describe Network Config and Local System Information and describe Local Router Control in more
detail.

Network Configuration
Choose the Network Config tab to obtain a window similar to Figure 9 below. Here you can change any
network settings in your system. Be sure to press the Send button to send your changes through the system.

RIO Bravo Local System Configuration
In most instances your RIO Bravo will be pre-configured at SAS. However, if you need to make any changes,
follow the procedure below:
Figure 10: Local System Setup
1. As shown in Figure 10, select Local System Information and then click Local System Setup.
You’ll get a graphic representation of the I/O modules installed in your RIO Bravo (see Figure 11).
Figure 11: RIO Bravo Configuration
2. Click the edit button at the right-hand corner of each module to make the following changes:
A. Assignment of channel numbers to I/O modules. Typically SAS will set the first Input to
number 001 and the first Output to 001, and then increment to each of the next installed modules.
B. Adjust Input and/or Output Gain for each channel.
