1 Description
Introduction
This document describes the integration of DALI lighting ballasts into KNX TP-1 home automation systems using the
Intesis KNX to DALI communication gateway.
The aim of this integration is to monitor and control DALI lighting ballasts, remotely, from a KNX home automation
system, as if it was a part of the own KNX installation and vice-versa.
In current version of the device, following DALI device types are supported:
•DALI Fluorescent lights (DALI type 0)
•Emergency lights (DALI type 1)
•LED modules (DALI type 6)
All of them, regardless of its type, will be referred as ‘ballasts’, ‘DALI devices’ and ‘ECGs’ (Electronic Control Gears)
indistinctively throughout the document.
Up to 64 DALI lighting devices can be fitted in a single DALI channel, and therefore controlled and monitored from
Intesis.
Intesis needs to be configured using Intesis MAPS software configuration tool. In the software, KNX and DALI lighting
ballast parameters must be configured and downloaded to the Intesis.
This document assumes the user is familiar with KNX and DALI technologies and technical terms.

NOTE: There may be differences in the implementation of DALI among different
ballasts and manufacturers. Intesis is compatible with Ballasts implementing the DALI
standard and certified under the DiiA guidelines for testing and certification. Use only
DALI devices having the DALI logo with Intesis.

Functionality
IntesisTM continuously polls (reads) all the signals of the DALI lighting ballasts in each line and maintains the updated
values to be served in KNX.
Each of the mentioned DALI point is associated to a KNX group address, with this, the DALI system is seen as one
more KNX device from the KNX system point of view, with the same configuration and operation characteristics
When a change in any DALI point occurs, a write telegram is sent to the KNX bus, of the associated KNX Group. See
details in section 4.
When a telegram is received from the KNX bus, of a KNX Group address associated to a DALI point, a message is
sent immediately to the corresponding DALI lighting ballast device to perform the corresponding action.
In the continuous polling process of the DALI channel, if there is no answer, it is indicated with a virtual signal of
communication error for this ballast in its line.
The KNX physical address address and all relative KNX group addresses must be set in the MAPS configuration tool.
From the configuration tool, it is also possible to scan each DALI channel for available ballasts, add them in
configuration, and configure its individual parameters (short address, preset levels, scenes, etc), according to their
device type (fluorescent light, emergency light, LED module).

2 KNX interface
In this section, a common description for all Intesis KNX series gateways is given, from the point of view of KNX
system which is called from now on internal system. The DALI system is also called from now on external system.
Description
Intesis KNX connects directly to the KNX TP-1 (EIB) bus and behaves as one more device into the KNX system, with
the same configuration and operational characteristics as other KNX devices.
Internally, the circuit part connected to the KNX bus is opto-isolated from the rest of the electronics.
Intesis-KNX receives, manages and sends all the telegrams related to its configuration to the KNX bus.
On receiving telegrams of KNX Groups associated to internal datapoints, the corresponding messages are sent to
the external system (DALI) to maintain both systems synchronised in every moment.
When a change in a signal of the external system is detected, a telegram is sent to the KNX bus (of the associated
KNX group) to maintain both systems synchronised in every moment.
The status of the KNX bus is checked continuously and, if a bus drops down is detected, due to a failure in the bus
power supply for example, when the KNX bus is restored again, Intesis will retransmit the status of all the KNX groups
marked as "T" Transmit. Also Updates for the groups marked as "U" will be performed on corresponding Group
Address. The behaviour of each individual point into Intesis is determined by the flags configured for the point. See
details in section below.
Points definition
Every internal datapoint to define has the following KNX properties:
Property
Description
Description
Descriptive information about the Communication Object or Signal.
Signal
Signal's Description. Only for informative purposes, allows identifying the signal
comfortably.
DPT
It is the KNX data type used to code the signal's value. It will depend on the type of
signal associated in the external system in every case. In some integrations, it is
selectable, in others it is fixed due to the intrinsic characteristics of the signal.
Group
It is the KNX group to which the point is associated. It is also the group to which the
read (R), write (W), transmit (T) and update (U) flags are applied. Is the sending group.
Listening
addresses
They are the addresses that will actuate on the point, apart of the main Group address.
R
Read. If this flag is activated, read telegrams of this group address will be accepted.
Ri
Read. If this flag is activated, the object will be read on initialization.
W
Write. If this flag is activated, write telegrams of this group address will be accepted.
T
Transmit. If this flag is activated, when the point's value changes, due to a change in
the external system, a write telegram of the group address will be sent to the KNX bus.
U
Update. If this flag is activated, on Intesis start-up or after a KNX bus reset detection,
objects will be updated from KNX.
Active
If activated, the point will be active in Intesis, if not, the behaviour will be as if the point
is not defined. This allows deactivating points without the need of delete them for
possible future use.
These properties are common for all Intesis KNX series gateways. Although each integration may have specific
properties according to the type of signals of the external system.

3 Connections
Find below information regarding the Intesis connections available.
Power Supply
Must use NEC Class 2 or Limited Power Source (LPS) and SELV rated
power supply.
If using DC power supply:
Respect polarity applied of terminals (+) and (-). Be sure the voltage
applied is within the range admitted (check table below). The power
supply can be connected to earth but only through the negative
terminal, never through the positive terminal.
Ethernet
Connect the cable coming from the IP network to the connector ETH
of the gateway. Use an Ethernet CAT5 cable. If communicating
through the LAN of the building, contact the network administrator and
make sure traffic on the port used is allowed through all the LAN path
(check the gateway user manual for more information). Default IP is
192.168.100.246. DHCP is enabled by default.
PortA / KNX
Connect the KNX TP1 bus to connectors A3 (+) and A4 (-) of gateway’s PortA. Respect the polarity.
PortB / DALI
Connect the DALI bus to connectors A4 (+), A3 (-) of gateway’s PortA. Intesis provides 16VDC (+/-2%) DALI voltage
to the bus.
Console Port
Connect a mini-type B USB cable from your computer to the gateway to allow communication between the
Configuration Software and the gateway. Remember that Ethernet connection is also allowed. Check the user
manual for more information.
USB
Connect a USB storage device (not a HDD) if required. Check the user manual for more information.
Ensure proper space for all connectors when mounted (see section 6).

Powering the device
A power supply working with any of the voltage range allowed is needed (check section 0). Once connected the
RUN led (Figure above) will turn on.
WARNING! In order to avoid earth loops that can damage the gateway and/or any other equipment connected to
it, we strongly recommend:
•The use of DC power supplies, floating or with the negative terminal connected to earth. Never use a
DC power supply with the positive terminal connected to earth.
•The use of AC power supplies only if they are floating and not powering any other device.
Connection to DALI channel.
Connect + and –terminals of the DALI bus of your DALI channel to Intesis’ DALI port. Bus has polarity, but most
DALI ballasts are polarity insensitive.
Having your DALI channel powered up, you can perform a quick DALI connectivity test by pressing Port B button:
- When pressing Port B button, a broadcast command that will toggle the ballasts between 100% and
0% level will be sent.
- After 30s timeout of not pressing the button, ballasts will return back to its original level.
DALI commands coming from KNX will continue to be executed while doing this test.
Connection to KNX
Connect the communication cable coming from the KNX bus to the PortA (Figure above) of Intesis.
In case there is no response from the KNX installation or KNX devices to the telegrams sent by the Intesis, check
that they are operative and reachable from the KNX installation used by Intesis.
Check as well if there is a line coupler that it is not filtering the telegrams from/to the Intesis.
Connection to PC (Configuration tool)
This action allows the user to have access to configuration and monitoring of the device. Two methods to connect
to the PC can be used:
•Ethernet: Using the Ethernet port of the Intesis.
•USB cable: To connect the device to the PC, the USB cable supplied should be plugged to the USB
Console port.
