L-DALI User Manual 153 LOYTEC
Version 5.2 LOYTEC electronics GmbH
7.4.2 Starting Stand-Alone
The L-DALI can also be used without LNS-based tools. In this case, the LINX Configurator
needs to be started as a stand-alone application. Go to the Windows Start menu, select
Programs, LOYTEC LINX Configurator and then click on LINX Configurator. This
starts the LINX Configurator.
If the L-DALI is not yet connected to the network, go to the Model menu and select the
L-DALI model to be configured. If the L-DALI is already connected to the network it is
recommended to connect the configuration software to the L-DALI.
