Response DMX/Dali gateway

Hello Marnix,

 

The Response Dali gateway contains a single loop, the ABAB connectors are parallel wired. 

Two sets of terminals are supplied for wring convenience.

If you wish to control two loops, then yes, you will need two gateways.

 

The DMX input to the gateway directly controls the DALI arc level (intensity) of the fixtures.

Hi Markus,

I'm confused. Can I make one loop with two sets of dali data cable?

Marnix

Hello Marnix,

 

Yes, if you joined the two loops of DALI together, then they would operate as a single loop.

You can have a maximum of 64 DALI devices on a single loop.

 

Remember that a DALI loop must have one (and only one) DALI PSU.

Hi Markus,

Do you meen that the responce needs a extrenal 12-24V PSU. Can I use the PS435 PSU?

Marnix

Hi,

 

While the response gateway will also need an external power supply (12-24vDC @ >250mA), which ETC P/N PS435 is suitable for.

The actual DALI loop also requires a power supply, an example of which would be the Tridonic PS2 (http://www.tridonic.com/com/en/products/DALI_PS2.asp)

Hello Marnix,

Only a single DALI PSU per loop.
The outputs from the Response DALI are parallel wired together, as such creates a single loop.

If you remove one of the PS2 from your diagram, then that would be fine.

Hi Markus,

Thanks a lot.
