Device limit on the Vertex

The Vertex 3 complies with the DALI-2 standard. However, to ensure proper operation of the E2D system (speed and reliability), Glamox recommends following our internal designing limits which are more strict:

• limit of 55 addresses on one bus - see details

• limit of panels and sensors on one bus - see details

Other restrictions that should be remembered come directly from the DALI standard.

• DALI bus length

• Maximum current limit

• DALI bus topology

DALI is an industry-standardized protocol for lighting control. The protocol is specified in the multi-part international standard IEC 62386, as well as in specifications written by DiiA.

DALI-2 refers to the latest version of the DALI protocol.

Compared with DALI version-1, there are many new commands and features in DALI-2. While DALI version-1 only included control gear, DALI-2 includes control devices such as application controllers and input devices (e.g. sensors), as well as bus power supplies.
