Commissioning

3 Commissioning
The parameterization of the DLR/A is implemented with the application Control Dim Groups 4f DALI/1 and
the Engineering Tool Software ETS. Using the application, a comprehensive and flexible range of
functions are available to the DLR/A. The standard settings allow simple commissioning. The functions can
be extended if required.
The application is available under ABB/Lighting/Light Controller/.
For parameterization purposes, a PC or laptop with ETS3 or higher and a connection to the KNX, e.g. via
RS232, USB or IP interface, is required.
Note
Commissioning with ETS2 is not possible!
The following work must be carried out:

Assignment of the physical KNX device address (ETS)

Parameterization of the DLR/A (ETS3 or higher)

Grouping of the connected DALI devices with the Software-Tool

Commissioning is necessary for constant lighting control. Commissioning is undertaken in an artificial
lighting and daylight calibration process. The selected brightness value for the room is selected with
this calibration. The commissioning can be undertaken using the Software Tool.
For more information see: online help, Software Tool
The DALI Light Controller assigns every connected DALI device, which does not yet have a valid DALI
short address, the first free address. This automatic addressing can be prevented using a parameter
setting in the ETS application, see
device and the assignment to any lighting group is also possible with the Software Tool even without ETS.
