to ensure only a matching device type can be assigned. For information on the
device type reported by a ballast please refer to the documentation provided by the
vendor of the ballast.
Status
: Shows the status of the DALI device if a DALI ballast, sensor, or button is
assigned and the DALI configuration was downloaded. If the DALI device is
online the status is
OK
, if it is not reachable via the DALI network it is
Offline
.
The device is marked
modified
if its configuration/assignment was changed, but
not yet downloaded to the L-DALI. If
Automatic Status
is checked the status is
periodically updated. Press
Get Status
to manually trigger an update of the Status
column.
Short Addr
.: Shows the DALI short address of the device. The DALI short
address can be in the range 0 to 63.
Serial Nr.
: Shows the serial number of the device, if available. If the serial number
of the device is known during preparation phase of off-line work flow (see Section
7.2.3) it can be entered by double clicking on this field. In this case the assignment
is automatically performed once the DALI configuration is downloaded to the
L-DALI.
The list can be sorted by clicking on one of the column headers.
A device can be winked by selecting the corresponding row and clicking on the
Wink
button located between the DALI network database section and the DALI scan result
section.
7.5.1.3 DALI Network Scan Result Section
If a DALI network scan has been performed by pressing the
Scan Channel
button, the
unassigned devices found during the scan are displayed in the table in the DALI network
scan result section. In case an error occurs see Section 11.4 for a description of the error
codes and possible reasons.
For each entry the tables contain the following columns:
Short Addr.
: Shows the DALI short address of the device. For devices which do
not contain a short address L-DALI automatically assigns one during network scan.
Device
: Can be
Ballast
,
Sensor
,
Button
, or
Unknown
. Unknown devices are
devices not supported by the L-DALI (e.g. switches). See Section 8.4.3 for details
on the different DALI device types.
Type
: Show the type and optionally the make of the DALI device.
Serial Nr
.: Shows the serial number of the device, if available.
The list can be sorted by clicking on one of the column headers.
Devices found during a DALI network scan can be assigned to Lamp Actuator, Sensor, or
Button objects either one by one or using the
Auto Assign
button.
To manually assign a device select one device in the scan results list on the right side and an
unassigned entry in the Lamp Actuator, Sensor, or Button objects lists on the left side and
press the
Assign
button. Alternatively you can drag a device from the scan results list and
drop it to an unassigned entry in the object lists. DALI ballasts must be assigned to Lamp
Actuator objects. DALI sensors must be assigned to Light/Occupancy Sensor objects. DALI
buttons must be assigned to Button objects.
