Self-contained Emergency Lighting
In addition to the standard instruction set, the autonomous emergency lighting (DALI device type 1) also supports a type-specific instruction set to meet the requirements for emergency lighting. The following dialogues are available for the configuration and operation.
Device
For the most important functions, here are buttons for going to send a corresponding DALI-command to the selected device.
Ext. Commands
Provides access to the specific commands of the self-contained emergency lighting.
Variables
With DALI, the intelligence was not centralized to 100%. This means, that many settings and light-levels in the form of variables are stored in the ballast. The Variables-menu displays a dialog where you can review and edit the variables of the selected DALI-device.
Ext. Variables
Displays all values of the extended variables.
Groups
In this menu you can add each DALI-device up to 16 groups. When a DALI-device receives a command in conjunction with a parameterized group-number, it will execute this command.
Scenes
Here you can store 16 different light-levels for scenes on each DALI-device. When a DALI-device receives a parameterized scene-number (e.g. as part of a broadcast), it will set the light-intensity for the scene. If the value of 255 (mask) is stored for this scene, the DALI-device retains the previous value.
