﻿Two sensor functions can be selected for the rotary/
slide encoder sensor type:

*Switching/Brightness value transmitter*: This sensor function contains a 1-bit communication object for the switching function and a 1-byte communication object to send the brightness as a percentage value. These two functions correspond to instance type 1 (push-button sensor) and instance type 2 (absolute input device). These are standard instances that are generally supported.

If a rotary sensor is used for the "Switching/brightness value transmitter" sensor function, the parameters of the groups or individual devices to be controlled should be adjusted if necessary in order to achieve the desired setting behaviour. For example, the switching/dimming behaviour of a DALI group should be
set to "jump to" and not "dim to" for receiving brightness values and set to "no reaction" instead of "switch on" for relative dimming up in a switched off state.

*Switching/Dimming*: Three communication objects are available for this sensor function. A 1-bit communication object for the switching function. A 4-bit communication object for sending a dimming command for brightness control by rotating or sliding the encoder A 4-bit communication object for sending a dimming command for colour temperature control by simultaneously pressing and sliding/rotating the encoder. These three functions correspond to instance type 1 (push-button sensor) and two 
instance type 0 (generic input). Instance type 0 is an instance that is specified by the sensor manufacturer and is generally not supported by the DALI Gateway.

Depending on the parameterised function, the ETS provides the appropriate
Parameters and communication objects are dynamically available.
