DALI principles for the DLR/A

ABB Stotz Kontakt GmbH currently has 6 KNX-DALI devices in the ABB i-bus
of DALI interfaces into a KNX building installation. Independent of additional functions such as constant
lighting control, every device has its strengths, which become obvious with the different project types.
In the following table, the fundamental technical differences between the DALI controls are compiled. This
manual deals primarily with group-orientated DALI control that is supported in the DLR/A. A detailed
description of the DALI Gateway DG/S specific functions can be found in the product manuals of the DALI
Gateway.

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