Configuring the group assignment of a scene
All groups can be assigned to a scene without any restrictions. Each group can be independently
assigned by activating the check box in front of the scene configuration (cf. Figure 33). Groups that
have not been activated by the check box are not assigned to the scene. All groups of the DALI
Gateway that are not created are masked in grey and cannot be edited.
Figure 33: Part of the group assignment of a scene
For better clarity the available groups (1...32) are divided into two pages in the subwindow of the scene
configuration which can be separately shown. Pressing the “Groups 1-16” and “Groups 17-32” buttons
within the scene configuration window allows for the switching between the pages.
Activate the check box of those DALI groups that are to be assigned to the selected scene.
The activated groups are now assigned to the scene. The group-oriented parameters of the scene
brightness value and the scene memory function will be enabled.
Setting the scene brightness values
The brightness value to be set in case of a scene recall must be specified for each DALI group that has
been assigned to a scene.
A group must be assigned to a scene in order to be able to edit the scene brightness value of a group.
Specify the required scene brightness value for each DALI group assigned to the scene in the
“Scene - [x] scene name" parameter node.
When recalling a scene the brightness value parameterized in each case will be set for the devices
of a DALI group.
When programming with the ETS the parameterized brightness values will be accepted into the DALI
Gateway only if the “Overwrite scene values during ETS download” parameter has been set to “Yes”.
The scene brightness value that can be selected in the ETS plug-in must be within the limits of the
maximum and minimum brightness parameterized for each group.
The same DALI devices can be assigned different groups several times during the DALI
commissioning (Multiple assignment: e.g. electronic ballast device 1 is assigned to group A and
group B). If groups (e.g. A & B) have been assigned to a scene and if these groups include the same
devices (e.g. electronic ballast device 1), there will be a conflict in case of different scene brightness
values. In this case, the multiple assigned devices will be set to the scene brightness value of the
group with the highest number.
