DALI gateway S128 KNX (2 channel gateway KNX)
4940302
The application of the second DALI channel is an identical copy of the first channel.
All functions, objects and parameters are available twice. In the ETS, the communication objects
of all 16 groups and 64 ECGs of the first channel, as well as those of the second channel, can
thus be configured.
Both DALI segments are commissioned separately.
Therefore, both DALI segments are configured independently of each other.
The following documentation describes the configuration and commissioning of one DALI
channel as an example.

Product features
The DALI gateways KNX are devices used to control ECGs with a DALI interface via the KNX
installation bus. The devices transform switch and dim commands from the connected KNX
system into DALI telegrams and status information from the DALI bus into KNX telegrams.
The DALI gateways KNX are Category 1 devices (in accordance with EN 62386-103). This means
the device must only be used in DALI segments with connected ECGs and not with other DALI
control devices within the segment (no multi-master function). Power supply for the up to 64,
resp. 128 connected ECGs comes directly from the DALI gateways KNX. An additional DALI
power supply is not required and not permitted.
The devices come in a 4 units wide DIN rail casing so it can be directly integrated into the mains
distribution box. In addition to the pure gateway functions, the DALI gateway KNX plus offers
numerous additional features:
•
Addressing of 16, resp. 32 DALI groups or 64, resp. 128 single ECGs
•
Flexible DALI commissioning concept in the ETS5
•
Coloured light control with the help of device type 8 ECGs (DT-8)
•
Colour light control depending on ECG sub-type:
Colour temperature (DT-8 Sub-Type Tc)
XY colour (DT-8 Sub-Type XY)
