Powering the device
A power supply working with any of the voltage range allowed is needed (check section 7). Once connected the
RUN led (Figure above) will turn on.
WARNING!
In order to avoid earth loops that can damage the gateway and/or any other equipment connected to
it, we strongly recommend the use of DC power supplies, floating or with the negative terminal connected to earth.
Never use a DC power supply with the positive terminal connected to earth
.
Connection to DALI channel.
C and
– terminals of the DALI bus of your DALI channel to Intesis’ DALI port. Bus has polarity, but most
DALI ballasts are polarity insensitive.
Having your DALI channel powered up, you can perform a quick DALI connectivity test by pressing Port B button:
-
When pressing Port B button, a broadcast command that will toggle the ballasts between 100% and
0% level will be sent.
-
After 30s timeout of not pressing the button, ballasts will return back to its original level.
DALI commands coming from KNX will continue to be executed while doing this test.
Connection to KNX
Connect the communication cable coming from the KNX bus to the PortA (Figure above) of Intesis.
In case there is no response from the KNX installation or KNX devices to the telegrams sent by the Intesis, check
that they are operative and reachable from the KNX installation used by Intesis.
Check as well if there is a line coupler that it is not filtering the telegrams from/to the Intesis.
Connection to PC (Configuration tool)
This action allows the user to have access to configuration and monitoring of the device. Two methods to connect
to the PC can be used:
•
Ethernet
: Using the Ethernet port of the Intesis.
•
USB cable
: To connect the device to the PC, the USB cable supplied should be plugged to the USB
Console port.
