.cDALI multi controller: DALI MCDALI multi controller: DALI MCDescriptionThe DALI MC is a multifunctional control module for the DALI circuit. It has four independent inputs with freelyconfigurable functions. Any standard switches compatible with mains voltage can be connected to the module. It is alsopossible to control the inputs of the DALI MC via relays.There is also the option of providing a power supply monitoring system with the DALI MC. When the power supplyreturns a predefined lighting status is retrieved by the DALI MC. Its compact design means that the DALI MC can beinstalled together with standard switches in a flush-mounted box. The DALI circuit can therefore be decentralised.The four inputs are configured by means of masterCONFIGURATOR (see Reference list).The DALI MC module is multi-master-compatible so several control modules can be used in a DALI circuit.ConnectionThe DALI MC switch module is connected directly to the DALI control line and does not need a separate power supply.It is powered via the DALI circuit (current draw = 6 mA). It can be connected to the DALI circuit with either polarity.½ CAUTION!The connection leads between the switch or button and the DALI MC must not be longer than 50 cm.The DALI circuit is not SELV. This means that the switches and cabling must be suitable for mains voltage.DALI Manual | 08-2013 | en35 / 93
