covered in separate chapters.
3.4. DALI control system
e
The x/ -touchPANEL is a DALI control system and uses the DALI communication standard.
The most important aspects are summarized below:
DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) is a standardised digital protocol according to IEC 62386 for flexible
room-related light management.
A maximum of 64 DALI operating devices can be assigned to up to 16 individually controllable light groups in a DALI
line. One or several DALI lines can be connected via controllers.
DALI provides the system programmer with a set of commands that facilitates targeted programming without any
special knowledge of lighting technology:
DALI also offers the following additional advantages compared with analog technology:
...
Emergency Application
_
Basic, Colour,
Plug Application
_
Control line polarity does not need to be observed
_
Use of standard cables
_
Fail-safe transmission due to digital technology
_
Each individual DALI operating device can be activated individually.
_
DALI operating devices can be assigned to several groups simultaneously.
_
Scene lighting and grouping are saved in the DALI operating device.
_
Special settings such as the speed of colour change (fading) and net recovery behaviour are possible.
_
When individual scenes are activated, all DALI operating devices reach their dimming value simultaneously.
_
The potential dimming range depends on the DALI operating device used and is between 0.1 and 100%.
