LMS DALI-2 RELAY UNIT RM8
(it is replacing LMS DALI RELAY UNIT RM8)
The DALI relay controls the power supply of ON-OFF devices (e.g. decorative lighting). There are two relays available:
Relay DALI-2 RM8 - for structural mounting
Relay DALI RM16 - for mounting on a DIN rail.
How to use it in the LMS design?
To use the relay in the project, you need to remember the typical Ethernet2DALI limitation.

How to commission it?
The relay in GUI looks as shown below:
In Vertex GUI relay is read as fluorescent luminaire.
To control it by Vertex GUI you should use Set Brightness command:
0% - relay is open, no power supply - OFF
>0% - relay is closed, the circuit is powered - ON
Instructions
This example shows how to control ON-OFF luminaires using a time scheduler. The DALI relay will turn the light every day at 8 a.m. and turn it off at 6 p.m.
Find the following nodes:
inject
vertex action
vertex cluster
2. Set the first inject node as OFF.
3. Set the second inject node as ON.
4. Set the first vertex action node (OFF):
5. Set the second vertex action node (ON).
6. Do not forget to click Done and Deploy!
