Parameters for central functions

DALI System... -> General

Central functions	Checkbox (yes / no)
If the parameter is activated, the six central functions and thus the objects "DALI system... - Central function..." are enabled. It is possible to assign individual groups and single devices to the central functions only if the function is enabled.

Name of the central functions	Free text
Names can optionally be assigned for the central functions. The names should illustrate the use of the individual central functions (e. g. "All ON", "Central OFF"). The names are only used in the ETS in the text of the central functions and central objects.

DALI System... -> Configuration groups -> [x] Group name

DALI System... -> Configuration of single devices -> [x] Device name

Delay for feedbacks	Checkbox (yes / no)
The states of the switching status and brightness value objects can be transmitted to the KNX with a delay in the event of control with a central function. The parameter is visible only if central functions are enabled.

Delay for feedbacks

Checkbox (yes / no)

The states of the switching status and brightness value objects can be transmitted to the KNX with a delay in the event of control with a central function.

The parameter is visible only if central functions are enabled.

Delay time	0 ... 59 min 0 ... 5 ... 59 s
These parameters define the time delay for the switching status and brightness value feedback for control with a central function. These parameters are only available if the delay for feedback signals is activated.

Delay time

0 ... 59 min

0 ... 5 ... 59 s

These parameters define the time delay for the switching status and brightness value feedback for control with a central function.

These parameters are only available if the delay for feedback signals is activated.

Assignment...	Checkbox (yes / no)
This parameter assigns the supplementary functions to the selected group or single device. The parameter is visible only if central functions are enabled.

Assignment...

Checkbox (yes / no)

This parameter assigns the supplementary functions to the selected group or single device.

The parameter is visible only if central functions are enabled.

Function and polarity	Switching (1 = ON / 0 = OFF) & dimming Switching (0 = ON / 1 = OFF) & dimming Permanent ON (switching: 1 = active / 0 = inactive) Permanent OFF (switching: 1 = active / 0 = inactive)
The function and polarity of the central function is selected here. Switching (1 = ON/0 = OFF) & dimming: The last command received (ON or OFF) or dimming is executed. The polarity of the central telegram for switching is preset: 1 = ON/0 = OFF Switching (0 = ON/1 = OFF) & dimming: The last command received (ON or OFF) or dimming is executed. The polarity of the central telegram for switching is preset: 0 = ON/1 = OFF Permanent ON (1 = active / 0 = inactive): The assigned group or single device is switched on and locked during central control. The "Dimming" object and "Brightness value" object of the central function are not evaluated by the assigned groups or single devices. Permanent OFF (1 = active / 0 = inactive): The assigned group or single device is switched off and locked during central control. The "Dimming" object and "Brightness value" object of the central function are not evaluated by the assigned groups or single devices. If a group or single device is assigned to several permanent central functions, the configured command decides on the priority of the central function. A "permanent OFF" has a higher priority than a "permanent ON" and thus is preferably executed. With permanent function, the polarity of the central telegram is always fixed: 1 = activate permanent control / 0 = deactivate permanent control. This parameter is visible only if central functions are enabled and assigned.

Function and polarity

Switching (1 = ON / 0 = OFF) & dimming

Switching (0 = ON / 1 = OFF) & dimming

Permanent ON (switching: 1 = active / 0 = inactive)

Permanent OFF (switching: 1 = active / 0 = inactive)

The function and polarity of the central function is selected here.

Switching (1 = ON/0 = OFF) & dimming: The last command received (ON or OFF) or dimming is executed. The polarity of the central telegram for switching is preset: 1 = ON/0 = OFF

Switching (0 = ON/1 = OFF) & dimming: The last command received (ON or OFF) or dimming is executed. The polarity of the central telegram for switching is preset: 0 = ON/1 = OFF

Permanent ON (1 = active / 0 = inactive): The assigned group or single device is switched on and locked during central control. The "Dimming" object and "Brightness value" object of the central function are not evaluated by the assigned groups or single devices.

Permanent OFF (1 = active / 0 = inactive): The assigned group or single device is switched off and locked during central control. The "Dimming" object and "Brightness value" object of the central function are not evaluated by the assigned groups or single devices.

If a group or single device is assigned to several permanent central functions, the configured command decides on the priority of the central function. A "permanent OFF" has a higher priority than a "permanent ON" and thus is preferably executed. With permanent function, the polarity of the central telegram is always fixed: 1 = activate permanent control / 0 = deactivate permanent control.

This parameter is visible only if central functions are enabled and assigned.

With relative dimming up in the switched-off state	Switch on no reaction
This parameter defines whether a group or single device in the "OFF" state reacts to a relative dimming telegram. Switch-on: The group or single device always reacts to a relative dimming telegram and executes a dimming process. In the "OFF" state, the group or single device switches on in the event of a "dim up" telegram. No reaction: The group or single device reacts to a relative dimming telegram only when it is switched on. In the "OFF" state, the group or single device ignores a "dim up" telegram. The parameter is visible only with enabled central functions and the "switching & dimming" function.

With relative dimming up in the switched-off state

Switch on

no reaction

This parameter defines whether a group or single device in the "OFF" state reacts to a relative dimming telegram.

Switch-on: The group or single device always reacts to a relative dimming telegram and executes a dimming process. In the "OFF" state, the group or single device switches on in the event of a "dim up" telegram.

No reaction: The group or single device reacts to a relative dimming telegram only when it is switched on. In the "OFF" state, the group or single device ignores a "dim up" telegram.

The parameter is visible only with enabled central functions and the "switching & dimming" function.
