Enable automatic DALI addressing
Options:
Using this parameter, the automatic DALI addressing process of the DGN/S can be switched off.
yes: If the DGN/S locates a DALI device without DALI address assignment, the DGN/S automatically
allocates the first free DALI address to the DALI device.
Benefits
If there is DALI addressing without gaps, the exchange of a defective DALI device is possible without
additional addressing or commissioning. A new DALI device without a DALI address must only be
installed for this purpose.
The DGN/S addresses the new devices with the free DALI address of the device, which has failed, and
transfers the properties that were present in the DALI device removed beforehand. If the DALI device
does not yet have a group address (device is new directly from the factory), it will also receive the group
assignment. If another group assignment exists in the DALI device, a conflict will be indicated in the
DALI-Software-Tool. This can be remedied with the DALI-Software-Tool by adopting the DGN/S or the
ballast information.
If the DGN/S detects several DALI devices with the same DALI address, these DALI addresses are
deleted and the devices automatically receive the first free DALI addresses in the address range from
the DGN/S.
For further information see:
no: The DGN/S does not assign DALI addresses, neither in normal mode nor at gateway voltage re-
covery. Should a non-addressed DALI device be installed, the DGN/S can only control this using a
broadcast telegram (manual operation). A DALI address is unnecessary for this purpose. If a DALI de-
vice with an existing address has been installed, the DGN/S will not change it.
Send object "In operation"
Options:
The communication object In operation indicates the presence of the DGN/S on the KNX. This cyclic tele-
gram can be monitored by an external device. If a telegram is not received, the device may be defective or
the KNX cable to the transmitting device may be interrupted.
no: The communication object In operation is not enabled.
send value 0/1 cyclically: The communication object In operation (no. 0) is sent cyclically on the KNX.
An additional parameter appears:
Telegram is repeated every
in s [1...65,535]
Options:
Here the time interval is set, at which the In operation (no. 0) communication object cyclically sends
a telegram.

Note
After bus voltage recovery, the communication object sends its value after the set sending and
switching delay.
