Some configuration options are common to all KNX/DALI gateways. These are the following:
| parameter | type | optional/mandatory | description | default |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Name | string | M | Name of DALI gateway that identifies the gateway within the NETx BMS Platform. The name must be unique for all DALI gateways since it is part of the item ID. | |
| Path | string | O | Path used for structure within NETx BMS Platform | |
| Devices | device range | O | List of DALI devices that are connected to this DALI gateway. The list is a comma separated list of DALI device numbers (starting with 1). In addition, specifying a device range is also possible. If no devices are specified, only the general device-independent functionality (e.g. DALI power fault) is available.

| Poll Device | bool | O | Specifies whether dedicated communication objects shall be polled or not. All communication objects that are affected by this polling are marked as "polled" within this documentation. If this parameter is set to false, the gateway must be configured in a way that the gateway automatically pushes the data to the KNX bus when it changes ("send on change"). | true |
| Poll Interval | number | O | Polling interval in seconds. | 5 s |
| Device Timeout | number | O | Timeout in seconds that LaMPS expects an answer to a read request. | 1 s |
| Trigger Test on Connect | bool | O | If true, a DALI test is triggered when the KNXnet/IP tunneling connection is available. | false |
| Trigger Test on Faults | bool | O | If true, a DALI test is triggered when a fault occurs. | false |
