The DALI-16B-SL module (slim-line) is an ISYGLT DALI gateway with integrated DALI power supply and is designed for space-saving installation
in control cabinets. This module is particularly suitable for systems with many DALI groups or single circuit control. Up to 32 DALI ECGs (DALI
standard loads) can be operated on one DALI BUS. Each of these 32 DALI devices (ECGs or electronic transformers) must be programmed
with a unique device address (DALI short address). Each device address can be assigned one of 4, 8, 12 or 16 ISYGLT dimming groups in up
to 3 configurations (setups) by parameterizing the DALI-16B-SL module. These dimming groups have all the properties possible in the ISYGLT
system with regard to scene storage, fade time calculations etc.
The module is equipped with its own mains supply, which is designed for 32 standard DALI loads. This enables a freely configurable emergency
function for the corresponding DALI BUS. All DALI output devices are completely integrated into the possibilities of the ISYGLT system through
our concept. Thus the functional range of the ISYGLT system is available. The module occupies 4 module addresses on the BUS. The DALI
devices are monitored for lamp faults or ECG faults. The DALI failure level (value in case of DALI BUS failure) can be parameterised via the DALI-
16B-SL. Maintenance intervals can be easily calculated via an operating hours counter.
According to the standard, the DALI ECGs always remain live, which ultimately leads to unnecessary energy consumption when switched off. A
main contactor for the DALI ECGs can be controlled via a virtual output. If the mains voltage is simply switched on or off, operating devices may
no longer operate correctly, as protocols can already be sent during the start phase. This effect is avoided by our new circuit logic.
The following functions are available for commissioning and operating the devices:
• DALI broadcast for commissioning and emergency operation
• automatic addressing of new ECGs during exchange work
• ECG addressing and control in conjunction with the IP Master and the DALI web plug-in
The following functions can be performed stand-alone by the DALI module:
• calculation of ups with time constants from 0.5 seconds to 18 hours
• automatic dimming from current analog actual values to predefined analog target values at a predefined speed (optionally in predefined time)
• feedback of the termination of the analog value output after the performance of time functions
• stop function during the performance of time functions
• OVERSAMPLING error correction (With the so-called „OVERSAMPLING“, the DALI module automatically corrects the jumps of the analog
values caused by the cycle times of the BUS system. For this purpose, the analog values between the BUS cycles are transformed back into
the resolution of 8 bits by linearization.)
