INTRODUCTION

• The CHROMOFLEX Pro DALI Stripe CV (DALI DT8) has been developed to operate voltage-controlled LEDs on up to 4 output channels via DALI.
• The number of output channels used and also the type of dimming curve can be easily set via DIP switches.

INTENDED USE

• The control unit is intended for use in dry indoor areas! If the LEDs are to be placed in outdoor or wet areas, we also offer optional housings for this purpose.
• The control unit must only be operated using a power supply that is suitable for the LEDs. Devices other than LEDs (especially inductive loads, such as motors, transformers or chokes) can destroy the controller.
• Failure to comply with these points may result in short circuits or electric shocks.
• The CHROMOFLEX Pro stripe CV, 4-channel (DALI-DT8) was developed in accordance with the applicable guidelines. DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) is a standardised digital communication interface in the field of building automation.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• The device generates heat during operation. Care must be taken to ensure adequate air circulation. The device must not exceed 80°C when operating at max. load.
• It is important to pay attention to the correct polarity of the connections. The module includes internal reverse-polarity protection; nevertheless, reverse polarity (even for a short time) can destroy the device.
• We assume no liability in the case of improper operation, reverse polarity, modification of the device, property damage or personal injury caused by improper handling or non-observance of the safety instructions – all of the above will invalidate the warranty without exception.
• If the LEDs are placed in a wet area (e.g. swimming pools, saunas, etc.), particular attention must be paid to the applicable regulations regarding the power supply.
• The product may only be installed by a qualified specialist who is familiar with the applicable regulations (e.g. DIN, VDE, EN).
• This product is not a toy and must be kept out of the reach of children. LEDs can also become very hot! It is always advisable not to exceed the specified maximum temperature of the light sources, as this can have a lasting effect on the life and light intensity of the LEDs.

1. WARNING 1
   LEDs can develop a very high light intensity, even when dimmed! Even weak LEDs can become very dangerous, especially when combined with optics. Looking directly into LEDs can cause irreparable damage to the retina of the eye. Use diffusers to scatter the light.

2. WARNING 2
   Please note that LED light can change its intensity very quickly. Rapidly changing lighting effects can affect perception and cause discomfort or even seizures in individuals prone to epilepsy.

INSTALLATION

The electrical connection may only be carried out by a qualified electrician who is familiar with the applicable directives!
Caution: Turn off the power supply or the connection lead before doing any works

INSTALLATION LOCATION
Make sure that the unit is mounted on a stable, level, non-tilting base. In operation the unit might produce heat. Care must be taken to provide unrestricted air ven-tilation.

CONNECTION
Please note that the LEDs must only be connected when the dimmer is in a deenergized state.

NOTES ON THE CHOICE OF POWER SUP-PLY
Important: the power supply must also have an adequate pulse load. Power sup-plies that are non-stabilized or produce too little power may cause flickering during color transitions.
Important: the power supply must be matched to the respective LEDs! An unsuitable power supply may cause mal-functions, unwanted flickering, destruction of the LEDs, destruction of the electronics, or in the worst case, overheating.

• We strongly advise against the use of non stabilized, low-cost power supplies! Furthermore, specialized „LED“ power supplies are often unsuitable as they may contain control electronics for constant current that are incompatible with downstream controllers (such as the CHROMOFLEX Pro).

• In all cases, we recommend using power supplies that are based on switched-mode technology! We can supply suitable power supplies.
  Of course, one power supply can also feed several modules simultaneously. In this case, ensure the power supply generates sufficient power. For wiring, cables with a maximum cross section of 2.5 mm² can be used.

• The modules should be supplied with at least 10 V DC, the maximum permissible voltage for the CHROMOFLEX Pro DALI stripe CV, 4-channel (DALI-DT8) is 48 V DC.

ADDITIONAL NOTES
At the output channels please

• avoid reverse polarity
• ensure the correct voltage
• ensure that the power per output channel is not exceeded
• never connect current-controlled LEDs (CC).

CHROMOFLEX PRO DALI STRIPE CV
4-CHANNEL (DALI-DT8)
„CV“ stands for „Constant Voltage“. This model has no current limit. It passes the supply voltage directly to the LED strips. Therefore, if the LED strip requires 24 V DC, this must also be provided as voltage via the upstream power supply.

Note: in practice, LED strips with 12 volts, 24 V DC and 48 V DC are common. LED strips may sometimes require very high currents, depending on their length.
Note about our LED strips: our LED strips are usually supplied in rolls with an aver-age length of about 6 metres; their pow-er consumption is approx.1.5 amps at 24 volts per colour. For the model „CHRO-MOFLEX Pro DALI DT8 CV“ the max. cur-rent for a 4-channel system is 2.2 amps per channel. If using only one channel (Fig. 4), 8.8 amps can be used. In this case, it is important to ensure that all outputs are bridged!

OPERATION

Ensure the product is in perfect working condition before using it. In the event of a fault, switch off the product immediately and do not operate it again until it has been checked by a qualified electrician.
This is the case, if

• there is visible damage to the device
• the product does not work properly
• the device emits smoke or audible crackling noises
• signs of overheating are detected Repairs to the product or work on live parts may only be carried out by qualified electricians.

WARNING: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN DANGER TO LIFE DUE TO ELECTRIC SHOCK!

How to avoid malfunctions or fire risk

• Do not cover the product. Do not restrict the air circulation.
• Do not hang or attach anything to the pro-duct, in particular any form of decoration.
• Do not let children play with electrical pro-ducts while unsupervised! Children are generally unaware of the hazards associated with electrical energy.
• A soft start is performed when the device is switched on or after a fault.
• If an output is shorted, further switching attempts will be made for 1 minute. If the short circuit is still present after this time, the dimmer must be restarted à see „Fatal Error“ flashing pattern.
• If a power supply with capacitors is used, the controller may continue to receive power for some time after the mains power is disconnected. Consequently, the controller will detect that there is a system error and switch the channels to 100 %.

INITIAL COMMISSIONING
Connect the CHROMOFLEX Pro DALI stripe CV, 4-Channel (DALI-DT8)devices as shown in Fig. 2 and 3. Make sure that only suitable LED strips and a compatible power supply are connected to the CHROMOFLEX Pro DALI stripe CV, 4-Channel (DALI-DT8). When the supply voltage is connected, the module should default to maximum brightness (100 %) on all outputs.
The output channels can be „bundled“ via DIP switches (channel link). Bundled channels behave like a single channel – only one DALI short address is used. Any existing settings (values, scenes, groups) are deactivated until channel bundling is cancelled.

DIP SWITCH ASSIGNMENT

STATUS-LED
On the device you can find a status LED. The meanings of the patterns:

DALI COMMANDS
Programming mode is started with the DALI command „Initialize“.

230 V AC PUSH BUTTON INPUT

• The DALI input can be used as a push button input – for this, a voltage of 230 V AC is connected to the DALI contact.
• All channels can be opened and dimmed together via the button-controlled phase. It is not possible to control the channels individually.

FIG.: 5 IMPORTANT
When using the DALI input as a pure push button input, no additional DALI devices or DALI controllers may be connected, as 230 V AC would then be applied to the entire DALI line..

SCOPE OF DELIVERY AND ACCESSORIES

Every CHROMOFLEX Pro DALI stripe CV, 4-Channel (DALI-DT8) unit is shipped with this manual. It is part of the scope of de-livery for the device and must be supplied to the end user.
