Assignment of the switch
sensor
The DALI Gateway from ABB opens up a variety of possibilities to the user
for operating and adjusting the lighting in a convenient, individual and
targeted way. At the same time, a range of safety functions can be taken
into account.
Due to this variety of possibilities, the operation should be made easily
understandable for the user when planning the switch sensors and other
operating elements. Two examples of a possible assignment for a 4-fold
switch sensor in an office with two lighting strips and an additional lamp
are shown in the following section.
Fig. 32: Office example
Example 1
“Individual solution”
Channel A with lighting strip 1 is controlled via the first push button.
A short push button action switches the lighting strip ON/OFF.
Lighting strip 1 is dimmed up or down with a long push button action.
The second push button controls lighting strip 2 which is connected
to channel B. The function is the same as the first push button.
The additional lamp can be switched with the third push button. If this is
a dimmable lamp, the same function can be set as for push button 1.
The shutters are moved UP/DOWN (long push button) via the fourth push
button and the louvres are adjusted with a short push button action.
