KNX and DALI – a strong team

DALI enables you to efficiently and

conveniently control modern lighting

systems. When combined with the

advantages of the open communica-

tion standard KNX, efficiency can be

increased even further. Hence, the

KNX/DALI gateways by Siemens directly

offer both standards: the DALI standard

(IEC 62386) for digital lighting and the

KNX standard (ISO/IEC 14543-3 or

DIN EN 50090) for building technology.

DALI lighting can be integrated easily

and quickly into KNX installations.

As a DALI master controller, the three

current KNX/DALI gateways offer exten-

sive functions for efficient lighting

control. All variants support the control

of ECG edition 1 as well as ECG edition

2 (DALI-2) because these are downward

compatible. All KNX/DALI gateways

support selected DALI sensors that

are compatible with the specification

by Siemens.

By using a DALI push-button interface

and optional DALI movement sensors,

standalone DALI lighting systems can

be implemented.

Individual light adjustment

through tunable white

The KNX/DALI gateways support

tunable white, a variable and seamless

color temperature control from warm

to cold white light. Dynamic color

temperatures not only promote a good

room atmosphere but contribute to

human well-being. This follows the

concept of Human Centric Lighting,

a way of light planning that responds

to human needs. While cold white

light promotes concentration, warm

white lights has a calming effect.

In this way, the light in a room can

be positively adjusted to individual

requirements and situations.

An adjusted color temperature can

ensure perfect seeing and working

conditions, which are crucial especially

in educational institutions and offices.

Highlights

• Flexibility thanks to three different

DALI gateways

• Tunable White for Human Centric

Lighting applications with

effects and schedule

• Highly flexible installation

thanks to DALI sensors

and brightness controller

• Replacing defective ECGs

without using software

These devices are compatible with

ECGs of DALI Version 1 and DALI-2.

Efficient lighting control with KNX and DALI KNX/DALI gateways by Siemens connect KNX installations and DALI lighting controls and thus form the basis for new design options. The color temperature included in scenes, and effects* and schedules* makes it possible to use the KNX/DALI gateways in Human Centric Lighting applications without requiring external KNX devices.
