8. Enhanced functionality
Besides Direct master mode, the DALI MSensor also supports two further modes for use in combination with a
higher-level DALI master controller:
Ex factory, the DALI MSensor is in direct master mode. The indirect master mode has to be activated over the
master controller itself. The slave mode can be activated over the master controller itself or by using the
masterCONFIGURATOR software.
8.1. Indirect master mode
In Indirect master mode, the DALI MSensor does not send any active control commands to the luminaires; it sends
the measured light value, presence detection status and remote control status to a higher-level master. The master
controller analyses this information and sends the corresponding control commands to the luminaires.
eDALI is used to communicate with the master. eDALI is Tridonic GmbH & Co KG's proprietary extension of the
DALI standard.
8.2. Slave mode
In Slave mode, the DALI MSensor do not send any active control commands to the luminaires; it has to be
interrogated by a higher-level control system (master).
As in Direct master mode, the DALI MSensor is given a DALI address during addressing. The brightness currently
measured by the sensor and the status of the presence detector can be interrogated via this DALI address by using
the "QUERY ACTUAL LEVEL" DALI request. A detailed listing and explanation of the supported DALI commands
can be found in the annex.
