KNX – DALI
TM
Intesis

Functionality

Intesis TM continuously polls (reads) all the signals of the DALI ECGs and sensors to obtain updated values to be
served in KNX.
Each of the mentioned DALI point is associated to a KNX group address, with this, the DALI system is seen as one
more KNX device from the KNX system point of view, with the same configuration and operation characteristics
When a change in any DALI point occurs, a write telegram is sent to the KNX bus, of the associated KNX Group. See
details in section 3.
When a telegram is received from the KNX bus, of a KNX Group address associated to a DALI point, a message is
sent immediately to the corresponding DALI lighting device to perform the corresponding action.
In the continuous polling process of the DALI channel, if there is no answer, it is indicated with a virtual signal of
communication error for this ballast in its line.
The KNX physical address address and all relative KNX group addresses must be set in the MAPS configuration tool.
From the configuration tool, it is also possible to scan each DALI channel for available ECGs and/or sensors, add
them in configuration, and configure its individual parameters (short address, preset levels, scenes, etc), according
to their device type or instance.
