INSTALLATION

Follow the drawing below to set the product:

1. Connect the BUS at terminal block of the device (depending on the DGD variant).
2. Connect the power supply (12-48Vdc) to the device terminal blocks “DC IN”.

MECHANICAL DIMENSION

(terminals excluded)

TECHNICAL NOTES

Installation:

• Installation and maintenance must be performed only by qualified personnel in compliance with current regulations.
• The product must be installed inside an electrical panel protected against overvoltages.
• The product must be installed in a vertical or horizontal position with the cover / label upwards or vertically; Other positions are not permitted. It is not permitted to bottom-up position (with the cover / label down).
• Keep separated the circuits at 230V (LV) and the circuits not SELV from circuits to low voltage (SELV) and from any connection with this product. It is absolutely forbidden to connect, for any reason whatsoever, directly or indirectly, the 230V mains voltage to the bus or to other parts of the circuit.

Power Supply:

• For the power supply use only a SELV power supplies with limited current, short circuit protection and the power must be dimensioned correctly. In case of using power supply with ground terminals, all points of the protective earth (PE = Protection Earth) must be connected to a valid and certified protection earth.
• The connection cables between the power source “low voltage” and the product must be dimensioned correctly and they should be isolated from every wiring or parts at voltage not SELV. Use double insulated cables.
• Dimension the power supply for the load connected to the device. If the power supply is oversized compared with the maximum absorbed current, insert a protection against over-current between the power supply and the device.

Command:

• The length and type of the connection cables at the BUS (DMX512, DALI or other) use cables as per specification of the respective protocols and regulations and they should be isolated from every wiring or parts at voltage not SELV.It is suggested to use double insulated shielded and twisted cables.
• All the product and the control signal connect at the bus (DMX512, DALI or other) must be SELV (the devices connected must be SELV or supply a SELV signal)

DGD-DALI-DMX SETUP – CONVERSION FROM DALI PROTOCOL TO DMX PROTOCOL

Signal LED:
In the case of no bus power detected, or bus error, the led blinks fast (2 pulsed per second).
In the case of bus power but no data, led blinks slow (1 pulse per second).
In the case of data link active, the led stands on.
Conversion
The DGD-DALI-DMxX convert all 64 DALI addresses in 64 DMX Channels.
The DGD-DALI-DMX convert from DALI protocol to DMX protocol and not viceversa.
The device does not manage the addressing of DALI bus. The addresses DALI from 0 to 63 is fixed and it is sent to DMX channel from 1 to 64. The commands implemented are: OFF, UP, DOWN, STEP UP, STEP DOWN, DIRECT ARC POWER, CALL MIN LEVEL, CALL MAX LEVEL, GOTO LAST ACTIVE LEVEL. The values of the commands are not stored in the absence of the supply voltage.

Signal LED:
In the case of bus error, the led blinks fast (2 pulsed per second).
In the case of no bus detected, led blinks slow (1 pulse per second).
In the case of data link active, the led stands on.
Conversion
The DGD-DMX-DALI convert only the first 64 DMX Channels in 64 DALI addresses.
The DGD-DMX-DALI converter from DMX protocol to DALI protocol and not viceversa.
The DMX channels from 1 to 64 is fixed and it is sent to DALI addresses from 0 to 63 by DIRECT ARC POWER command.
NOTE: The DGD-DMX-DALI requires power supply in the DALI bus. The devices DALI must be addressed through DALI programmer (for example with cod. DGM01-1248).
