Manual mode level 3  

LED on Man. button lights up permanently in red 

Briefly press button 1/9 to trigger a broadcast command. Whether the command that is sent 

first is an on or off command depends on the status of group 1. Each further keypress toggles 

all lights via broadcast. The LED on button 1/9 shows the switch status. All lights react to a 

broadcast command even if group assignment has not yet taken place. 

A long keypress on button 5/13 triggers a quick exchange command. This function makes it 

possible to replace a faulty ECG even without the ETS (see chapter 11.5 ECG easy replacement). 

A long keypress on button 6/14 activates the converter inhibit mode. If the power supply for the 

connected emergency lights is turned off within 15 minutes after activating the converter inhibit 

mode, the lights are turned off instead of changing into emergency mode. This operating mode 

may be necessary during the commissioning and installation process to prevent constant 

emergency lighting and battery discharge. 

If the gateway detects a fault, the LEDs on buttons 2/10 to 4/12 and 7/15 to 8/16 show the 

exact type of fault. The LED is constantly lit up in red. The faults are as follows: 

 

LED Button 2/10 

 Converter fault  

LED Button 3/11 

 ECG fault 

LED Button 4/12 

 Lamp fault 

LED Button 7/15 

 DALI short-circuit 

LED Button 8/16 

 KNX fault

2 channel device 

The DALI gateway S128 KNX has 9 operating buttons and LEDs on the front side, which offer 

numerous possibilities for manual control and broadcast and analysis functions. 

  

The buttons and LEDs are accessible without having to remove the cover. During KNX bus 

operation and in the absence of any errors, all 9 LEDs are switched off. If the gateway detects 

an error (e.g. a faulty lamp or KNX failure), only the LED on the Man. button lights up in red and 

flashes quickly. During programming (e.g. during installation) all LEDs light up in red and flash 

slowly.  

 

Activate the manual mode with a long keypress on the button in the bottom right-hand 

corner

The manual mode ends automatically 60 seconds after the last time the button has been 

activated.
