Dali Gateway Plus with Manual Control

Product code: 2180 00

The DALI Gateway forms the interface between a KNX installation and a digital DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) lighting system. The DALI Gateway allows the switching and dimming of a maximum of 64 lights with a DALI operating device (e.g. electronic ballast). Up to 6 different addressing types of the DALI Gateway allow group-orientated and individually- address control of DALI lights via KNX telegrams.

Description

Control of max. 64 DALI operating devices as individual control, group control in max. 32 groups, or central control via a broadcast telegram.
Manual operation of the devices also independent of the bus (also building site operation with broadcast control).
Energy-saving function: Switch-off of the power supply of the DALI operating devices possible in a switched-off state (via additional KNX switching actuator).
16 light scenes.
The groups can be integrated in the light scenes.
Effect control can be configured for max. 16 sequences in 1 to 500 run-throughs (or infinite).
Feedback of DALI error status or short circuit and signalling of power supply failure.
Active or passive (object can be read out) cyclical feedback function.
Group feedback of all switching conditions possible.
Feedback can be delayed until after the recovery of bus voltage.
Switching and brightness value: Active (send to the bus in case of change or cyclically) or passive (object can be read out) feedback functions.
Brightness range can be set.
Bulb-saving switch-on and switch-off
Dimming behaviour can be parameterised.
Time functions (switch-on delay, switch-off delay, expanded staircase function advance warning function in accordance with DIN 18015-2 or reduced continuous lighting).
Block function or alternatively forced setting function can be parameterised for each group. With block function, the flashing of light groups is possible.
Reading the DALI device state out via KNX.
Elapsed-hours meter as forward and backward counter with limit value evaluation.
Online or offline configuration of the DALI devices using ETS plug-in.
Replacement of an individual defective DALI device is possible during operation without ETS.
Suitable for operation in emergency lighting systems.
Control and monitoring of individual-battery and centrally- supplied DALI emergency lighting systems.
Support of DALI emergency light converters in accordance with EN 62386-202 (individual battery-operated emergency lights with DALI interface): Function test, continuous operation test, limited continuous operation test, query of the battery charge
