Vantage DMX DALI Gateway – MODEL: DMX-DALI-GW
Overview
The Vantage DMX DALI GATEWAY
(DDG) simultaneously processes
information to/from
DMX
and/or
DALI
devices. The DDG station provides a
full DMX universe of 512 channels, from
which 64 channels may be used for
DALI control. The information is
transmitted via Ethernet, in controlled
packets, to the Vantage Controller
which acts as the central control point.
The Vantage Controller conversely
transmits controlled packets back to the DDG to be distributed
to each connected bus. The Vantage controller manages the
information, load status and levels; making the interface simple
to use.
This product is very versatile and its capabilities and limits must
be fully understood to use effectively. Read all of these
instructions before installing.

Reset Button
o
Boot Loader Mode
: Standard Press & Release, do not
hold – …
Reboots station into boot loader mode, LEDs may
flicker and then go off.
Boot loader mode is used when upgrading
firmware.
Re-power the station to exit boot loader mode.
o
Factory Reset
: Press and hold just over 4 seconds – …
Resetting to factory settings - LEDs go off until the
station reboots to factory settings - all load
channels are set back to default.
This also resets the IP address to factory settings.

*Firmware Update
Before installing
the Vantage DDG, make sure the firmware has
been updated to the latest release. See
Steps to Update
Station Firmware
on page 5 in this document. After a firmware
update the station’s new
factory setting
IP address is
192.168.1.225. H
owever, updating firmware does not change the
IP address to the factory setting. Only a factory reset will
change the IP address to the factory setting – see
Reset Button
(previous column).
**Setting ModBus RTU, Bus 1 to DMX
It is possible, through the
DGM Device Config
tool, to set the
ModBus RTU
, Bus 1 to DMX512. Setting the
ModBus RTU
, Bus 1
to DMX512 only mirrors Bus 2 on the InFusion System. Design
Center only supports one DMX512 universe on each DDG
station and cannot distinguish between Bus 1 and Bus 2 on the
same station. Sending a command to any DMX channel will
simultaneously
control loads assigned to that channel number
on both Bus 1 and Bus 2 DMX universes.
DMX-DALI-GATEWAY / DGM Configuration Steps
The
DGM Configuration
software is built-in the DDG station
and is accessed by connecting to the station’s IP address via
most internet browsers.
NOTE: The
DGM Config
tool has to connect to the DDG station
via the default IP address when the station is in default mode
or an assigned IP address if the station is not in default mode
and has been assigned a new IP address. The steps below
may
require the default IP address of
192.168.1.225
be substituted
with
192.168.1.4 -or-
if the station has previously been assigned
a new IP address, and is not in default mode, substitute the
new IP address.
Power on the station with the correct power supply.
1.
The station comes with a static IP Address of 192.168.1.225
or 192.168.1.4. The 192.168.1.225 IP address is from newer
firmware releases.
2.
Follow the a. or b. steps below depending on the local
network.
a.
If the local network
is not on
the 192.168.1.x subnet and
the DDG station
is set to default mode
:
i.
Configure the local network’s router to reserve a
static IP address for the DDG station – record for later
use.
ii.
Disconnect the computer from the main network.
