® ABB i-bus General DALI general The requirements for modern lighting technology are extremely varied. While previously lighting was only required for visual tasks, nowadays factors such as comfort, ambience, functionality and energy efficiency are in the foreground. Furthermore, a modern lighting system is increasingly being incorporated into the facility management of the building installation in order to monitor the status of the entire lighting system.

Page 131: Planning And Application
® ABB i-bus Planning and Application Planning and Application In this section, you will find some tips and application examples for practical use of the group-orientated DALI gateway DGN/S 1.16.1. Automatic DALI addressing In order to better appreciate the functionality of the DGN/S, the addressing of the DGN/S is described in this chapter.
Page 132: Function Chart
® ABB i-bus Planning and Application Function chart The function chart indicates the sequence, in which the functions of the DGN/S are processed. If several communication objects in the function block point to the same function, they have equal priority and are processed in the sequence in which they are received.
Page 133: Monitoring Of Lamps And Ballasts
® ABB i-bus Planning and Application Monitoring of lamps and ballasts With the DGN/S 1.16.1, the malfunction state of the lighting in the building can be broadcast on the KNX. A control panel or control centre can evaluate or display this information. Required repair measures or cor- responding maintenance cycles can be initiated.
Page 134: Exchange Of Dali Devices
® ABB i-bus Planning and Application Exchange of DALI devices If a DALI device fails in an existing DALI installation, where DALI addresses are assigned without any gaps, a DALI device as provided in the default state from the factory (without a DALI address assignment) can be used for replacement and will avoid the requirement for re-commissioning.
Page 135: Burning-In Of Luminaries
® ABB i-bus Planning and Application Burning-in of luminaries In the case of lamps filled with gas, a burn-in time is recommended. This burn-in process is only required once at the start of commissioning. Only after this burn-in time fluorescent lamps do have a stable operating value, which ensures the best possible dimming behaviour and an optimum service life.
Page 136: Staircase Lighting
® ABB i-bus Planning and Application Staircase lighting The DGN/S 1.16.1 features a function Staircase lighting, which can be triggered and stopped via individual switch telegrams of the individual lighting groups. With function Staircase lighting, the other additional functions, e.g. Slave and Sequence cannot be acti- vated.

Page 138: Scene
® ABB i-bus Planning and Application Scene The DGN/S 1.16.1 facilitates the integration of the 16 lighting groups in 14 scenes. The scene parameterized once in the ETS can be used in the following functions: Normal scene recall via the communication objects 8 bit scene (1 byte) or Recall scene (1 bit).
Page 139 A typical function Scene could, for example, appear as follows and is described using the 8 bit scene tele- gram as an example: ® The task is to implement the room lighting for a presentation with ABB i-bus devices. The following devi- ces are used in the room:...
Page 140 ® ABB i-bus Planning and Application Example An 8 bit scene (no. 8) comprises of some lamps, which are connected to two switch actuators and a light controller DALI output. Furthermore, two blinds are integrated into the function Scene via a blind actuator.
Page 141: Slave
® ABB i-bus Planning and Application Slave If the function Slave is activated, the lighting group of the DGN/S strictly adheres to the brightness value, which is predefined by the communication object Brightness value of slave. Brightness values on the communication object Brightness value are ignored.

Page 144: Sequence
® ABB i-bus Planning and Application Sequence The DGN/S 1.16.1 features a function Sequence. A sequence is a string of up to a maximum of 10 scenes. They are recalled successively with their parameterized brightness transitions. The function Sequence is controlled or stopped via the group switch telegrams.
Page 145 ® ABB i-bus Planning and Application The following parameterization results for the first four steps: The brightness values in the sequence steps are set in the scenes. The following scene values result for the sequence shown above: Scene No. 100 %...
Page 146 ® ABB i-bus Planning and Application As an example, extracts of the parameter windows for scene 1 (red) and 6 (magenta) are shown: With scene 6 (magenta), note that the brightness value of group 7 (blue) was already at 100 % and due to parameterization no change (no member in this Scene) has been retained.
Page 147 ® ABB i-bus Planning and Application The parameterization is undertaken in the Parameter window - Gx Sequence, page 74. If the default val- ues are retained, the sequence is automatically activated after download. The function Sequence is in standby and can be started at any time by an ON telegram (value 1) to the communication objects Switch or Switch/status of the lighting group which are members of the sequence.

Page 149: Dali Lighting Curve
® ABB i-bus Planning and Application 4.10 DALI lighting curve The DALI lighting curve does not apply for emergency lighting converters. For this reason, the curve trans- formation function is not used on the emergency lighting converter. The DALI dimming curve is adjusted to the sensitivity of the human eye. In this way, a logarithmic charac- teristic curve results for the luminous flux, which is perceived by the human eye as a linear brightness cha- racteristic.

Page 151: Characteristic Adjustment Of The Linear Dimming Curve
® ABB i-bus Planning and Application 4.10.1 Characteristic adjustment of the linear dimming curve The DALI characteristic compliant to IEC 62386-102 described in the previous chapter can be modified via the DGN/S 1.16.1, so that it provides a linear characteristic from KNX brightness value [%] to luminous flux.
Page 152: Characteristic Adjustment With Physical Minimum Dimming Value
® ABB i-bus Planning and Application 4.10.2 Characteristic adjustment with physical minimum dimming value The second possibility for the characteristic curve adjustment considers the minimum dimming value of the ballast. The physical minimum dimming value is calculated, so that the complete KNX adjustment range from 1…100 % can be used on the KNX.
