Activating the switching status feedback function
The switching status feedback can be used as an active message object or as a passive status object.
As an active message object, the switching status feedback information will also be directly transmitted
to the bus. As a passive status object, there will be no telegram transmission after an update. In this
case, the object value must be read-out. The ETS automatically sets the object communication flags
required for proper functioning.
The “Switching status feedback ?” parameter is separately created for each DALI group in the “Groups
- [x] group name - switching" parameter node.
Set parameter to “Yes, feedback object is active message object”
The “Switching status feedback” object will be enabled. The switching status will be transmitted once
the status has been updated. After a bus/ mains voltage return or after programming with the ETS, a
feedback telegram will be automatically transmitted.
Set parameter to “Yes, feedback object is passive status object”
The “Switching status feedback” object will be enabled. The switching status will be transmitted only
if the feedback object is read by the bus. After bus voltage return or after programming with the ETS,
there will be no automatic transmission of the feedback.
Setting switching status feedback on return of bus/ mains voltage or after programming with
the ETS
If used as an active message object, the switching status feedback information is transmitted to the bus
after bus voltage return or after programming with the ETS. In these cases, the feedback telegram can
be time-delayed with the delay being preset globally for all DALI groups together (cf. "Delay after bus/
mains voltage return").
Set the "Time delay for feedback telegram after bus voltage return" parameter in the "Groups - [x]
groupname - switching" to "Yes".
The switching status telegram transmission will be delayed after bus/ mains voltage return or after
programming with the ETS. No feedback telegram is transmitted during a running delay time, even if
the switching state changes during this delay.
Set the "Time delay for feedback telegram after bus voltage return" parameter in the "Groups - [x]
groupname - switching" to "No".
The feedback switching status telegram will be transmitted immediately after bus/ mains voltage
return or after programming with the ETS.
