For all these gateway types, the following Server Items are available:
| item name | description |
|---|---|
| KNX IP Connection | This Item reflects the KNXnet/IP tunneling connection to KNXnet/IP router or interface which is used to communicate with the KNX/DALI gateway. |
| Fault | True, if there is either a DALI, lamp, or ballast fault. |
| Fault DALI | True, if there is a general short cut on the DALI bus. |
| Fault Device | True, if there is a lamp or ballast fault for at least 1 DALI device. |
| Fault Lamps | True, if the amount of lamp faults exceeds the configured threshold. If exceeded, LaMPS is starting to test all configured devices in order to see which device(s) have a fault. |
| Fault Ballast | True, if the amount of ballast faults exceeds the configured threshold. If exceeded, LaMPS is starting to test all configured devices in order to see which device(s) have a fault. |
Since these gateways also support emergency lighting, it has to be distinguished between a normal DALI test and an emergency DALI test. For normal DALI testing, the following Server Items are available:
| item name | description |
|---|---|
| Trigger Test | Used to trigger a normal DALI test for all devices. |
| Test Running | True, when a normal DALI test is currently running. |
For emergency DALI testing, the following Server Items are available under the sub tree "Emergency":
| item name | description |
|---|---|
Fault Converter | True there is the amount emergency failures exceeds the configured threshold. |
| Start Function Test | Used to trigger a function test for all emergency DALI lights. |
| Start Duration Test | Used to trigger a duration test for all emergency DALI lights. |
| Start Partial Duration Test | Used to trigger a partial duration test for all emergency DALI lights. |
| Start Battery Test | Used to trigger a battery test for all emergency DALI lights. |
| Stop Test | Used to stop a running test. |
| Emergency Light Test Running | True, when an emergency DALI test is currently running. |
| Info |
|---|
Please keep in mind that these items will only appear when emergency testing is available for the gateway. For these KNX/DALI gateways at least one DALI device must support emergency lighting tests. This means that there must be a "Emergency Mapping Definition" for at least one DALI device. Note that emergency testing is only available for self contained battery lamps. |
...
For each configured DALI device, a sub tree with the name "Device<number>" is shown within the Server Item Tree. Each device has at least the following Server Items:
| item name | description |
|---|---|
| Name | Human-readable name of the DALI device. The default name is "Device<number>". This name can be changed within the Device Name Mapping Definitions. |
| Fault | True, if either a lamp or a device fault occurred. |
| Fault Lamp | True, if there is a lamp fault. |
| Fault Ballast | True, if there is a device fault. |
| Test Succeeded | True, if a response is received during the test. |
If a device is also an emergency light (i.e. it has a valid emergency mapping definition), the following items are available in the sub tree "Emergency":
| item name | description |
|---|---|
| Test Running | True, when an emergency DALI test is currently running. |
| Start Function Test | Used to trigger a function test for this device. |
| Start Duration Test | Used to trigger a duration test for this device. |
| Start Partial Duration Test | Used to trigger a partial duration test for this device. |
| Start Battery Test | Used to trigger a battery test for this device. |
