Configuration
In addition to the common configuration options the following configuration options are available for each channel:
parameter | type | optional/mandatory | communication object | description | default |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Fault General | ItemId | M | KNX Object #1524, polled | True, if there is an error for at least 1 DALI device. | |
Fault Short Circuit | ItemId | O | KNX Object #1527 | True, if there is a general short cut on the DALI bus. | |
Fault Power Failure | ItemId | O | KNX Object #1525 | True, if there is a power failure on the DALI bus. | |
Emergency Mode Active | ItemId | O | KNX Object #1541 | True, if DALI devices are in emergency mode. | |
Emergency Lighting Failure | ItemId | O | KNX Object #1542, polled | True, if there is an error for at least 1 emergency DALI device. This config element is optional. If it is not used, emergency lighting test features are not available. | |
Error per DALI Device | ItemId | M | KNX Object #1544 | KNX feedback object for DALI device errors. | |
Emergency Test Interval | int | O | Specifies how long the driver will wait between sending two emergency start requests. | 10 s |
In order to use the object "Error per DALI device" within our LaMPS module, it is important to active the following options within the parameters of the device:
The objects Fault General (#1524) and Emergency Lighting Failure (#1542) can be configured as passive or active feedback objects. If at least one of them is set as passive, "Poll Device" should be set to true.
The objects Fault General (#1524) and Error per DALI Device (#1544) must be linked to a group address. Otherwise the DALI gateway will be considere as "not used" and therefore be ignored for the export.
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 have to be configured for each emergency lighting separately. This is done in the Emergency Test Mapping.
If you want to use emergency tests for single battery powered emergency lights, it is of utmost importance to enable the external activate within the ETS parameters of the gateway:
Functional description
This KNX/DALI gateway type provides a single DALI channel with up to 64 DALI devices. In addition to normal DALI testing, emergency lighting and extended tests for emergency lighting are supported, too.
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 Power Failure, Short Circuit, Lamp, Ballast or Converter fault. |
Fault Devices | True, if there is a lamp, ballast or converter failure for at least 1 DALI device. If configured, LaMPS is starting to test all configured devices in order to see which device(s) have a fault. |
Fault Lamp | True, if there is a lamp fault of one or more DALI devices. |
Fault Ballast | True, if there is a ballast fault of one or more DALI devices. |
Fault Converter | This item is only available for at least one DALI device that supports emergency lighting. If true, there is a converter fault of one or more DALI devices. |
Fault Power Failure | True, if there is a power failure on the DALI bus. |
Fault Short Circuit | True, if there is a general short cut on the DALI bus. |
Since this gateway type also supports emergency lighting, the LaMPS module distinguishes between a normal DALI test and an emergency DALI test.
In addition, the following device-specific items are available under the sub tree "Emergency":
item name | description |
|---|---|
Emergency Lights On/Off | True, if the gateway is in emergency mode. |
Emergency Lighting Failure | True, if there is an emergency failure of at least one emergency DALI light. |
Please note that these server items will only be created if 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 ballast fault. |
Fault Converter | (Emergency lighting only) True, if there is a converter 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. |
Stop Test | Used to stop a running test. |
Remaining Test Runtime | Remaining runtime in minutes for a triggered test. |
Last test was | Shows the type of the last test. |
Last test faulted | True, if there was no test result response. This may be the case when the DALI does not support emergency tests. |
Converter defect | True, if the converter is defect. |
Fault battery | True, if there is a battery fault. |
Battery defect | True, if the battery is defect. |
Fault emergency light | True, if there is an emergency light failure. |
Max time function test exceeded | True, if the maximum time for the function test exceeded. |
Max time duration test exceeded | True, if the maximum time for the duration test exceeded. |
Function test failed | True, if the function test failed. |
Duration test failed | True, if the duration test failed. |
Test result | Test result: The raw data as received from the gateway. Time results have to be multiplied by 2 minutes; Battery charge status is from 0 to 255 and has to be converted to percentage. |
