4 Setup and function
4.1 Introduction
The DALI Gateway, REG forms the interface between the Busch-free@home®system and a
DALI bus. The device converts the Busch-free@home®telegrams and transmits them to the
DALI bus. A maximum of 16 DALI participants can be connected to the DALI Gateway, REG.
DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) has established itself as a neutral company
standard in the lighting technology. The range of ballasts, transformers, dimmers and relays
with DALI interface characterizes the modern lighting technology. DALI increasingly replaces
the traditional 1-10 V technology and additionally offers many other functions such as flexibility,
comfort, ambience, functionality and energy savings.
DALI-2 is the ongoing development of the DALI standard (DIN EN 62 386), which improves the
compatibility between manufacturers and also guarantees a downward compatibility to DALI.
Supported are all DALI participants of type 0 (DALI Device Type 0, DT0).
The DALI-Gateway offers the following functions
■Switch-on / switch-off
■Dimming of brightness
■Setting of switch-on brightness
Notice
DALI ballasts that are not certified according to DALI-2, can be operated on the
DALI Gateway, REG.
Notice
The DALI Gateway, REG can be operated and parameterized only with the
connected auxiliary voltage.
Notice
The DALI Gateway, REG provides the DALI operating voltage.

Commissioning
Product manual 9AKK107680A3586

7 Commissioning
7.1 Requirements for commissioning
A System Access Point is required to make the device operational. The device is ready when
the bus voltage is applied. However, programming of the device is possible only with an applied
230 V supply voltage.
Up to 16 participants with a DALI interface (e.g. ballasts) can be connected to the DALI output.
The following points must be observed for commissioning.
■All DALI participants should not yet have received a DALI address before commissioning.
This can happen when the ballast has been installed beforehand in a different DALI
installation. This can lead to conflicts in addressing. If it is not known whether all participants
are not addressed, all participants should be reset. For this the menu has two options
available.
– Reset only the DALI Gateway, REG.
– Reset DALI Gateway, REG and DALI participants.
■During commissioning all participants must be connected to the DALI Gateway, REG and
supplied with voltage (no stepwise commissioning). Otherwise there is the risk that
addresses are assigned twice.
■When replacing a defective ballast, the new ballast normally receives the address of the
defective ballast automatically. However, if several ballasts are replaced simultaneously, the
devices could then be allocated to the wrong room. In this case the participants must be re-
allocated via the interface of the System Access Point.
■The automatic assigning of addresses is always active.
7.2 Initial commissioning
The System Access Point establishes the connection between the Busch-free@home®
participants and the smartphone, tablet or PC. It is used to identify and program the Busch-
free@home®participants during commissioning.
Devices which are physically connected to the Busch-free@home®bus, log themselves
automatically into the System Access Point. They transmit information about their type and
supported functions (see chapter 4.3 “Functions“ on page 12).
During initial commissioning all devices are given a generic name (e.g. DALI Gateway, REG,
etc.). The user can change this name to a name practical for the system (Example: DALI
Gateway, REG living room").
The devices must be parameterised for the use of additional functions.
Commissioning of the DALI Gateway, REG is described in the following chapters. Here it is
assumed that the basic commissioning steps of the overall system have already been carried
out. General knowledge about the Web-based commissioning software of the System Access
Point is assumed.
Notice
General information about commissioning and parameterization is available in
the system manual and in the technical reference manual of the "System Access
Point" at .

7.3 Allocation of devices and definition of channels
The devices connected to the system must be identified, i.e. they are allocated to a room
according to their function and are given a practical name.
The allocation is made via the "Devices" allocation function of the Web-based
user interface of the System Access Point.
7.3.1 Add device
Fig. 6: Selecting the device group
1. Select the desired device group in the "Add devices" bar.
Notice
Ensure that the correct filter is set, so that the correct device group is displayed.
Notice
The DALI Gateway, REG does not appear in the view; instead, the up to 16
connected DALI participants (ballasts) are displayed. These can then be added
to the floor plan.
