Panel: LMS DALI-2 SWITCH PANEL

Panels have a universal design and are equipped with status LEDs. They are available in 2, 4, 6, and 8 buttons versions.

How to use it in the LMS design?

To place switches in the project, you need to remember the typical Ethernet2DALI limitations. The maximum DALI current consumption of these switches is 10 mA while the average DALI current consumption is 3 mA. Wall panels are compatible with the newest DALI-2 protocol, which means that they take only one DALI address on the DALI line.

Additionally, you can use the feedback diode function to monitor the state of the DALI groups. You can program these diodes.

The panels are compatible with the European standard electrical junction box (Ø60). There are two ways of mounting - using sticker or screws. Both are included in the box with the wall panel. 

How to commission it?

Wall panels have several diodes. One for each push button and one on the top. The upper diode on is used for identification. 

To program a logic within the Node-RED tool you need to use a dali2devs node, which is available in the node palette on the left-hand side of Node-RED UI. 

To set up the button you need to choose the serial number of your service in the Serial Number field and choose the push button which you want to control in Dali2 Device field. For standard toggle button use Mode: Normal. If you need to create function of dimming choose Mode:ESDIM. 

Then configure the vertex action node according to the function which you want to achieve. You can choose between several types of actions like single button, toggle button, triple button or dimm button. In the vertex feedback, select the same group as in the vertex action. Remember to connect your flow to the ​​​​​​​vertex cluster node.

Import the ready flow using the code below:
