3.3. Different settings
Prior to commissioning the x/e-touchPANEL the basic settings must be configured.
AOther follow-up settings differ, depending on which pplication has been chosen:
A therefore The basic settings and the different settings for these pplications are covered in separate chapters.
3.4. DALI control system
e The x/ -touchPANEL is a DALI control system and uses the DALI communication standard.
The most important aspects are summarized below:
DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) is a standardised digital protocol according to IEC 62386 for flexible
room-related light management.
A maximum of 64 DALI operating devices can be assigned to up to 16 individually controllable light groups in a DALI
line. One or several DALI lines can be connected via controllers.
DALI provides the system programmer with a set of commands that facilitates targeted programming without any
special knowledge of lighting technology:
DALI also offers the following additional advantages compared with analog technology:
...
Emergency Application_
Basic, Colour, Plug Application_
Control line polarity does not need to be observed_
Use of standard cables_
Fail-safe transmission due to digital technology_
Each individual DALI operating device can be activated individually._
DALI operating devices can be assigned to several groups simultaneously._
Scene lighting and grouping are saved in the DALI operating device._
Special settings such as the speed of colour change (fading) and net recovery behaviour are possible._
When individual scenes are activated, all DALI operating devices reach their dimming value simultaneously._
The potential dimming range depends on the DALI operating device used and is between 0.1 and 100%._
