DALI principles for the DLR/S

ABB Stotz Kontakt GmbH currently has 4 KNX-DALI devices in the ABB i-bus
integration of DALI interfaces in a KNX building installation. Independent of additional functions such as
constant light control, every device has its strengths, which become obvious with the different project
types.
The following table shows the fundamental technical differences between the DALI controls. This manual
deals primarily with group-oriented DALI control that is supported in the DLR/S. A detailed description of
the DALI Gateway DG/S specific functions can be found in the product manuals of the DALI Gateway.

1)
Overlapping DALI groups are supported, i.e. a DALI device may belong to several DALI groups.
2)
KNX programming is possible when KNX voltage is connected. Gateway operating voltage for KNX programming is not
required.
A Gateway supply voltage (85...265 V AC or 110...240 V DC) is prerequisite.
