Since these gateways do not have a global KNX communication object for starting an emergency test and for getting the result (they have a separate object for each device), the ItemIDs has to be configured for each emergency lighting separately. This is done in the Ipas DaliControl, MDT DaliControl, Merten KNX DALI-Gateway, Schneider KNX DALI-Gateway, B.E.G. DALI/KNX-Gateway, Theben DALI-Gateway KNXKNX#EmergencyTestMapping.
Functional description
These KNX/DALI gateway types provide 1 DALI channel with up to 64 DALI devices. In addition to normal DALI testing, they support emergency lighting and extended tests for emergency lighting too.
