Using this flow you will be able to adjust the DALI luminaire's brightness in the E2D system from the KNX level. The program described in this article is associated with dimming up/down using KNX buttons. This functionality is only available when you have LMS E2D REMOTE ACCESS KIT at your site and the Vertex ApC has been supplied with an internet connection.

2. Go 1. After importing the flow go to the first node - knxEasy-in. Make sure that Set the gateway, group address and Datapointare set correctly.
...
Provide the factual IP address and port of the gateway (the one in the flow is
...
an example).
...
Check if the group address given in the knxEasy-in node is the same as the one you want to control.
...
Datapoint should be set to 3.007
...
3. Go to the The Vertex action node . Actions are already is set, but if you would like to make some modifications, you can do this (at your own risk )so you do not need to make any changes.
...
4. Deploy the program and test itDo not forget to click Done and Deploy!
