Setting the cyclical transmission function for the switching status feedback telegram
In addition to being transmitted in case of an update, the switching status feedback telegram can also
be transmitted cyclically via the active message object.
Set the “Cyclical transmission of feedback telegram?” parameter in the "Groups - [x] group name -
switching" to „Yes“.
Cyclical transmission is now activated.
Set the “Cyclical transmission of feedback telegram?” parameter in the "Groups - [x] group name -
switching" to „No“.
Cyclical transmission is now deactivated which means that a feedback telegram is transmitted to the
bus only if one of the switching states has been updated.
The cycle time is defined centrally for all DALI groups in the “Groups” parameter node.
During an active delay time, no feedback telegram will be transmitted even if a switching state has
changed.
Activating brightness value feedback
The brightness value feedback can be used as an active message object or as a passive status object.
In case of an active message object the brightness value feedback telegram will also be directly
transmitted to the bus after each update. 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 “Brightness value feedback ?” parameter is separately created for each DALI group in the “Groups
- [x] group name - dimming" parameter node.
Set parameter to “Yes, feedback object is now active message object”
The “Brightness value feedback” object will be enabled. The brightness value will be transmitted
once it 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 “Brightness value feedback” object will be enabled. The brightness value will be transmitted only
if the feedback object is read-out by the bus. After bus voltage return or after programming with the
ETS, there will be no automatic transmission of the feedback.
