The DALI gateway connects the KNX with digital electronic ballasts equipped with a DALI interface. The gateway is the DALI master and power supply for the electronic ballasts. It supports the switching and dimming of up to 64 electronic ballasts in 16 groups and the control of 16 lightscenes. In addition, the 64 electronic ballasts can be individually activated via KNX or compiled via KNX group addresses.
Error messages of individual electronic ballasts or each connected lamp can be transmitted to the KNX and visualised on display devices. DALI commissioning and configuration, as well as group assignment and scene setting can be carried out using:
• the device (display and operating buttons)
• a software tool (free of charge)
• the integrated Web server. The RH45 connection is used for connection to a PC (with standard browser).
• a portable Web panel or a PDA
The device has 2 inputs for connecting push-buttons (building site operation), for example.
For installation on DIN rails EN 50022. The bus is connected using a bus connecting terminal; a data rail is not necessary. The network and the DALI cable as well as the switch inputs are connected via screw terminals on the device.
