1bin | Address bits 9 to 14 contain a DALI group address or a DALI collective call. | ||
14 to 9 | Address bits (A) | 0bin | DALI short address, DALI group address or DALI collective call |
8 | Selection bit (S) | 0bin | Bits 0 to 7 contain a lamp power value. |
1bin | Bits 0 to 7 contain a DALI command. | ||
7 to 0 | Command (X) | Lamp power value or DALI command* |
*) A list of DALI commands can be found in Chapter DALI commands.
![]() | Commands received by the DALI devices Please note that DALI devices can only receive commands once their load side is supplied with power (230 V), since the PIC (single-chip micro-controller) of a DALI device is typically supplied via the load voltage. |
