Description
The current battery charge level of the emergency can be read from this communication object being the
answer a value from 0 to 254.
Only available if the DALI emergency supports this feature. If the gateway answers the value 255 means
that it is not supported.
Name
Object 497: DALI emergency X | Functional test: in progress
Function
1-bit communication object to start and stop an internal functional test.
Description
When a “1” is sent to this object the emergency starts a functional test that takes 5 seconds approximately.
During this test the correct function is checked: the emergency changes from rest mode to test mode and
the light is switched on. After the test, the light goes back to the last value and the emergency changes to
rest mode again.
When a “0” is sent to this object the emergency stops the current test.
Name
Object 498: DALI emergency X | Battery test: in progress
Function
1-bit communication object to start and stop an internal battery test.
Description
When a “1” is sent to this object the emergency starts a battery test that takes 1 hour approximately. The
battery test can only be executed when the battery is fully charged.
During this test the battery autonomy is checked: the emergency changes from rest mode to test mode
and the light is switched on. After the test, the light goes back to the last value and the emergency changes
to rest mode again.
When a “0” is sent to this object the emergency stops the current test.
3.4.3
DALI group objects
The working and behaviour description of the DALI group objects is similar to DALI individual lights, except for the “lamp fail”
object that it is not available for groups.
3.4.4
General objects
Name
Object 480: Scene | DALI general scene execution
Function
1-byte communication object for general DALI scenes save and recall.
Description
When a value from 1 to 16 (0x00 to 0x0F) is sent to this object every DALI ballast programmed in the
gateway memory will recall its internal scene which number corresponds to the value.
Scenes can be programmed in the parameters window of the specific DALI ballast (The DALI protocol
scenes number limitation is 16).
When a value from 128 to 143 (0x80 to 0x8F) is sent to this object every DALI ballast programmed in the
gateway memory will save its current value in the scene which number corresponds to the value.
