Enable DALI ballasts
(individual control)
Options:
Linked group object:
•
Yes: Individual device control is supported on the DALI output. Corresponding parameter windows and
group objects are enabled. DALI addressing can be flexibly handled in the ABB i-bus
64 DALI devices can be connected to each output. Individual DALI devices can be hidden in the
A ballasts parameter window to provide a clear, compact parameter structure.
DALI devices which are assigned to a group cannot be used for individual control. This configuration is
shown in the i-bus
•
No: Individual device control is supported on the DALI output. No corresponding parameter windows
and group objects are enabled, so the ETS parameter structure here is very concise.
Note
If a DALI device is controlled individually, it cannot also be assigned to a DALI group. A DALI device can
be controlled either individually via ballast commands or in a group via group commands. Overlapping
DALI groups are not supported.
Initially the DALI gateway assumes that group control is in use. If a ballast is to be individually
controlled, it must be specifically parametrized in ETS. The ballast concerned must be enabled in the
X ballasts parameter window, which is enabled by selecting individual control in the
X DALI configuration parameter window.
If a ballast is assigned to a group but is set to individual control in ETS, or is not set to individual control
but is not assigned to a group, this is referred to as a ballast-group conflict.
A ballast-group conflict is indicated as an incorrect state by a yellow caution field in the i-bus
Depending on which type of control is required (group G or individual S), the device must be assigned to
a DALI group or removed from its existing group.
To control individual DALI devices and groups together, a joint KNX group assignment is required.
