3.1. General information
The basicDIM DGC is a digital controller in the comfortDIM product range that can be used to control the control gear of a DALI group
collectively.
The basic DIM DGC provides the basis for an easy-to-use and cost-effective lighting system with motion detection. When the sensor
detects movement it triggers an individually adjusted table motion detection profile in the control unit. As the amount of natural
ambient light changes the illuminance from the artificial lighting system is adjusted. The connected luminaires can be switched on and
off via momentary-action switch or remote control possible.
The DALI IN interface allows integration of the basicDIM DGC module also into a comfortDIM system.
The basicDIM DGC module has 5 preprogrammed profiles which can be selected using the basicDIM DGC Programmer. The profiles
can be adjusted to your application via the master CONFIGURATOR ( V2.12) software (see "Reference list" at the end of this
document).
If the basicDIM DGC module is used in the basic application, the CH2 can be used as control channel for controlling subordinate
basicDIM DGC modules (basic connection), so that the controlling and the subordinate basicDIM DGC modules can be programmed
and allocated to groups using the masterCONFIGURATOR software. Every single basicDIM DGC module can be allocated to only one
group and respond to the presence of up to five groups. For more detailed information please refer to the masterCONFIGURATOR
documentation (see "Reference list" at the end of this document).
3.2. Main applications
The DALI basicDIM DGC is designed for the following principal applications:
Individual offices
_
Open-plan offices
_
Training/presentation rooms
_
Corridors, passage ways and garages
The basicDIM DGC either controls all the units on the DALI circuit or a DALI group. The basicDIM DGC is Multi-master
compatible, i.e. it can be used in conjunction with other DALI controllers in the comfortDIM product range. This allows
the basicDIM DGC to be addressed and grouped in the same way as DALI control gear and makes it easy to configure the
system. The basicDIM DGC is configured in the masterCONFIGURATOR software (V2.02. or later) (see "Reference list" at the
end of this document).
