    DALI the way you are used to. The advantages of the DMX output side of the DALI-to-DMX bridge include the possibility of choosing the network resolution and using the same DMX address for multiple luminaires. The DALI-to-DMX bridge autoconfigures the number of DMX channels to the number of configured DALI ballasts.

    Repeat this command sequence to set the second address: it is irrelevant whether you set the start or the end address first, as the DALI-to-DMX bridge will subtract the lowest address from the highest one in order to get the range of DALI addresses that will be mapped to DMX ad- dresses.

    2.2 Setting the DMX network resolution DMX network resolution (number of bits used to send a set point over the network) can be set to either 8 or 16 bit via the bridge’s DIP switch 1. In 8-bit mode, every DALI ballast value is translated into one 8-bit DMX channel.
