Intelligent Lighting Systems – DALI

/ Services / Intelligent Lighting Systems – DALI

DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) is an open standard for the control of lighting installations and other building automation systems. Thanks to its individual addressing capabilities and simplified structure, DALI offers significant advantages over other interfaces.

Why Choose DALI

Open Standard

Compatibility Between Devices from Different Manufacturers

Scalability

From a Single Luminaire to Complex Systems

Upgrade Capability

Expansion Without Construction Works

BMS Integration

Part of Building Automation Systems

What is the DALI System?

DALI is a digital communication interface with bidirectional communication between control units and field devices. The standard is open and ensures independence from any specific manufacturer.

The DALI concept is open to new applications and enables the implementation of projects of varying scale – from single rooms to complex lighting installations with multiple circuits.

Addressing

Each device has an individual address

Grouping

Participation in Multiple Logical Groups

Scenes

Predefined and User-Defined Scenarios

Integration

Communication with Building Automation Systems

Control Principles and Operating Modes

Groups

Logical grouping based on function and zones

Individual Control

Independent control of each device

System-Wide Control

Centralised control of all devices at once

System Integration and Expandability

Through a suitable interface to the DALI line, devices without a DALI input can also be connected – including lighting fixtures, blinds, windows, doors, irrigation systems and other end devices controlled via analogue signals or alternative protocols.

The functionality of existing installations can be expanded without the need for construction works.

Architecture and Communication

Control Devices (Slaves)

They execute commands directly via the DALI line – controlling lighting, dimmers, relays and other loads. They support DALI, PWM and analogue inputs (e.g. 1–10 V).

Control Devices (Master)

They send commands and exchange data with other modules. Support both Single Master and Multi-Master modes.

DALI Line and Power Supply

Two-wire line for power supply and communication. Half-duplex, asynchronous serial protocol with a free topology.

Commands and Functionalities

DALI enables easy and intuitive lighting control – from everyday operations to intelligent lighting scenarios.

Light Adjustment

Smooth dimming and brightening, or direct setting of a precise brightness level according to the requirements of the space

Dim up / Dim down · Direct arc power

Scenes and Modes

With a single action, a predefined lighting mode can be activated for work, presentations, relaxation or night operation

Scenes 1–16 · Recall Minimum / Maximum Levels

Automation

Combining multiple actions into a single scenario with automated control based on time or integration with other systems

Macros · Logical Scenarios

Colour and Temperature

Adjustment of colour and colour temperature to enhance comfort, atmosphere and energy efficiency

RGB · CCT Control
