Operating instructions
1 Safety instructions
Electrical equipment may only be installed and fitted by electrically skilled persons.
Serious injuries, fire or property damage possible. Please read and follow manual fully.
Danger of electric shock. Always disconnect before carrying out work on the devise or
load. At the same time, take into account all circuit breakers that supply dangerous

5 Information for electrically skilled persons
5.1 Fitting and electrical connection
DANGER!
Electrical shock when live parts are touched.
Electrical shocks can be fatal.
Before carrying out work on the device or load, disengage all the
corresponding circuit breakers. Cover up live parts in the working environment.
Fitting the device
Observe the temperature range. Ensure adequate cooling.
oMount device on DIN rail. Output terminals must be at the top.
Connecting the device
Figure 3
Control cable: appropriate type, cross-section and routing for the specifications for 250 V
cables. DALI and mains voltage wires can be run together in a cable, e.g. NYM 5x1.5 mm².
iDALI participants from some manufacturers have expanded functions and can e.g. be
controlled via mains voltage on the DALI connection. When existing DALI installations are
refitted, remove all corresponding operator controls.
iThe DALI control voltage is a functional extra-low voltage (FELV). When performing
installation, perform the installation in such a way that when an area is disconnected the
lines carrying both the DALI and also the mains voltage are disconnected.
oConnect device as shown in the connection example (Figure 3).
5/9
IC00P01DAL - DALI gateway

oIf multiple miniature circuit breakers supply dangerous voltages to the device or load,
couple the miniature circuit breakers or label them with a warning, to ensure disconnection
is guaranteed.
oConnect bus line with connecting terminal.
iDALI devices can be connected to various phase conductors.
Operation in emergency lighting systems
The device can be used in decentrally-powered or in centrally-powered emergency lighting
systems.
In decentrally-powered emergency light systems, emergency luminaires with individual batteries
and special DALI devices are used.
iObserve the number of DALI devices in the emergency luminaires used.
Emergency lighting systems with a central safety supply are required in buildings larger than
2000 m². Depending on the scope of functions of the system, only the emergency luminaires
are supplied by the central safety supply (Figure 4), or the KNX system and DALI gateway are
also supplied (Figure 5). In the latter case, in emergency operation, the DALI gateway can
transmit the appropriate fault messages to a central system and other DALI gateways in the
system.

safety supply
Installing the cover
It is necessary to install a cover to protect the bus connection against hazardous voltages in the
connection area.

Cause: The device has not been programmed or is programmed to "Broadcast".
Check the device status. If necessary, program the device and put DALI system into
operation.
Individual DALI devices have no function
Cause 1: Load is defective, e.g. lamp.
Exchange load.
Cause 2: DALI device is defective.
Exchange defective device.
Switch on voltage.
Press c and ALL OFF buttons together for at least 10 seconds.
