BUS GATEWAY KNX/DALI BASIC 2 CHANNELS

KNX/DALI interface Basic, MTN6725-0004, can control up to 2x64 luminaires in at most 2x16 groups. Commissioning (including DALI) is performed entirely via the ETS software, requiring version 5. The interface operates as a DALI master device and power supply for two separate DALI lines. A short circuit or other fault condition on one DALI line does not affect the operation of the other DALI line. The MTN6725-0004 interface supports DALI DT8 message types. It extends lighting functionality beyond simple dimming to include control of light color and/or color temperature. Color control enables effect and mood lighting, for example in restaurants or home theaters. The well-being effects achieved by color temperature control aim to increase productivity in offices, improve learning outcomes in classrooms, and reduce the number of errors and accidents in warehouses and production areas. The color temperature of a DALI group can be set via a 2-byte unsigned integer message from the KNX side, or via a 1-byte scale message where 0% is the lowest and 100% is the highest color temperature the luminaire can achieve. Additionally, color temperature can be adjusted using 4-bit messages. Alongside color temperature messages, standard KNX messages (1-bit, 4-bit, and 1-byte) are available. Alternative message types are also available for color control of DALI groups, such as RGB (3 bytes or 3 x 1 byte) and RGBW (6 bytes). Additionally, color or color temperature can be incorporated into scenes. Utilizing DT8 messages requires a DT8-compatible luminaire.
