  • Multiple protocols supported – Each control output supports DALI broadcast, DALI addressed, 1-10 V and DSI protocols.
  • Built-in energy savings – Control signals can be programmed to operate in tandem with five internal switched outputs, which will automatically isolate the power circuit when all associated channels are at 0%. This is a useful feature as DALI drivers still draw significant power when lamps are turned off via a DALI command.
  • No tools required – The device is available with connectors suited to three major modular wiring brands – CMS Electracom, Wieland and Wago.
  • Inbuilt diagnostic functionality – Includes lamp and driver failure, circuit run time tracking/lamp life, automated battery tests and Device Online/Offline status indication.
