Introduction

Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI) systems should be used where ballast level control is required. DALI is ideal for open space commercial environments. When cubicle and workspace layouts change, the lighting can be regrouped and adjusted as needed. Other typical applications include college lecture halls, hospital operating rooms, and corporate conference rooms. DALI provides tremendous flexibility for both retrofit and new installations. DALI systems are easy to maintain when replacing lamps and ballasts, the wiring stays the same, and the DIN-DALI-2 re-addresses the new ballast with the address and parameters of the original ballast.

Crestron seamlessly connects with the open DALI protocol by way of the DIN-DALI-2 interface. This interface can work with any Crestron control system as well as any power supply. A benefit of this flexibility is that Crestron devices such as keypads, thermostats, photo and occupancy sensors, gateways, and other Cresnet devices can easily communicate with the DALI system.

Commissioning lighting groups, detecting faults, and replacing ballasts is simple when using the powerful Crestron DALI Commissioning Tool. The user can develop interactive floor plans using Smart Graphics, which provides easier monitoring, management, and control of all the light fixtures within the space.

Crestron delivers the most comprehensive DALI ballast solution with single, 2, and 3 lamp versions available for any application, in any part of the world. Crestron Green Light DALI ballasts support dimming a wide range of fluorescent lamps from 1100%, making it the most comprehensive ballast solution on the market today. The DALI ballasts drive multiple lamp wattages in one unit, which makes lighting design easier and less expensive.

The new line of Crestron dimmable LED drivers provides high-power LED lighting with deep dimming to below 1%. Available in 50 W and 100 W models with DALI control, GLD-LED drivers offer superior, smooth dimming technology using a combination of duty-cycle and current dimming.

The optional built-in power metering feature is unique to Crestron DALI ballasts. The ability to measure, monitor, and manage power to each light fixture, while enabling daylight harvesting and load shedding, makes it easy to implement a fully-integrated system that combines architectural lighting control and energy management all on one platform. Optional power metering models track real-time energy usage of each load and provide essential statistics to help manage and control utility costs.

t

DALI is a protocol used for the direct control of lighting ballasts. The DALI standard allows multiple ballasts to be daisy-chained using low-voltage wiring for power on/off and dimming control. Up to 64 independently operating ballasts can exist on a single DALI channel. DALI lighting is optimal for applications that require granular control of each fixture, such as open office floor plans and daylight harvesting in classrooms.

Control wires are topology free (up to 64 between each ballast), making wiring simpler than in 0 10 volts dimming systems. DALI systems can report lamp and ballast failure for easier maintenance, and with Crestron PM ballasts, controllers can query energy usage. Additionally, the DALI data is resistant to noise which allows it to run alongside line-voltage power lines. The Crestron DALI Commissioning Tool simplifies system installation and provides a setup wizard with step-by-step configuration of ballast properties, groups, and scenes.

Spaces with changing tenants and large campuses with frequently repurposed rooms are the prime target of DALI systems. Some of the key features are as follows:

Individual Addresses: Each DALI ballast has its own unique address on the system; therefore the system is able to communicate with each ballast independently of the others.

Number of Addresses: Up to 64 addresses can be on one DALI loop. An unlimited number of loops can be placed on a complete DALI networked system.

Grouping: DALI ballasts can be assigned from 116 groups on a loop, without the need for re-wiring.

The example below shows how Crestron communicates with DALI and other building systems.

Crestron Communication with DALI



Bi-directional Communication: Ballasts are able to receive information as well as report back lamp or ballast failures to the central DALI system.

Re-addressing Ballasts: Using the DALI Commissioning Tool, if a ballast fails on a system, the loop can detect the missing address and re-address it when a new ballast is added back in its place.

Warranty and Compliance: Crestron DALI ballasts include a 5 year warranty. The ballasts are UL listed, CE, and RoHS compliant.

DALI Requirements

The intent of the DALI protocol is to supply low cost, interchangeable ballasts that are simple to program and commission.

Ballast Power Requirements: The ballast must be universal voltage (115300 volts), 5060 Hz, high power factor, low harmonics, and have transient surge protection. When the initial voltage is applied, the lamps go to full on or to a pre-set level.

Command Requirements: Ballasts are able to receive information and report back to the central DALI system regarding lamp or ballast failures.

Lamp Response Requirements: DALI protocol requires a precise logarithmic dimming curve of 254 steps (2.8% increase per step) so that all ballasts dim the same: 0100% for incandescent and fluorescent, 3100% for compact fluorescent, and 0100% for LED.

Protocol Requirements: The DALI protocol includes the intent and electrical requirements, bits and bytes, collision detection, and the type of wire that can be used.

Crestron and DALI-AG Working Group

Crestron is a participating member of the DALI-AG Working Group. Participating members are key suppliers of products and technology that comply with DALI and IEC 62386 standards. As a member, Crestron participates in committee proceedings and plays a role in the development of specifications. Members have total access to all DALI specifications, which are critical to the development of products.



Emergency and DALI Ballasts

Crestron provides cold-start emergency ballasts to illuminate rooms with existing lights during a blackout therefore eliminating the need for an emergency generator.

The emergency ballast fits into the fixture with the DALI ballast. When a power outage is detected, the emergency ballast lights up one or two lamps in the fixture for more than 90 minutes. This complies with many state and local codes, including the National Electrical Code and the Life Safety Code (NFPA 101).

In the example below, five of the six fixtures are without power. One of the fixtures utilizes the emergency backup to illuminate the room. This emergency ballast powering scenario tremendously reduces wiring costs and the need to purchase and maintain costly backup power systems.

For the DALI protocol to communicate with other protocols a control interface is necessary. The interface acts as a language translator, allowing the DALI protocol to be understood and used by other protocols such as Cresnet, BACnet, and Ethernet. Using the DALI protocol, the primary building systems can communicate together easily. The Crestron DALI-to-Cresnet or Ethernet interface is the DIN-DALI-2.

DALI Power Supply

The DIN-DALI-2 has a built-in DALI power supply, eliminating the need for a separate power supply. The DIN-DALI-2 gets its own power either through Cresnet or PoE. This simplifies wiring to the DIN-DALI-2 module. The power from Cresnet or PoE is used to power the DALI controllers if the DALI power switch is set to INT. All 128 DALI ballasts can be powered in either Cresnet or PoE mode.

Models featuring DALI control are available in either single or 2-channel configurations. The 2-channel option provides two independently controllable channels in one housing, offering a cost-saving, space-efficient solution for use with tunable white lighting and fixtures with separate direct and indirect lighting components.

Crestron Green Light Dimmable LED Drivers are programmable using the CREScode LED Driver Configuration Tool, allowing each LED driver to be matched perfectly to its fixture at the factory. The hardware/software utility provides a simple means of selecting the dimming curve and setting the minimum dimming level, NTC temperature and output current. The output current can be set individually for each LED output. The use of programmable LED drivers reduces inventory requirements, allowing a single driver model to be used with numerous different fixtures.

DALI Control Cable

The DALI standard does not require shielded wire. However, unshielded wire may be subject to induced voltage degradation and interference. Crestron recommends the use of shielded cable because if unshielded DALI cable is used and improperly installed, signal failures may occur. DALI control wire shall be sized appropriately based upon voltage drop due to cable length. Crestron recommends 1622 AWG based upon cable length. The DALI protocol standard can communicate up to 980 ft (300 m). Per the NEC, class 1 DALI control cable may be run in the same conduit as line voltage wire.

DALI Control Cable Example



Individual Office

By controlling the lighting fixtures with the DALI control system, daylight harvesting and room occupancy sensing can be achieved easily by adding sensors.

In the individual office example below, the fixture closer to the window is dimmed lower than the one further from the window based on the amount of natural light. The photo sensor measures the outdoor light while the occupancy sensor determines if the room is in use. The Cameo keypad provides the user with control of preset lighting scenes and dimmer control.

Glossary of Terms

Ballast

An electrical device required in fluorescent and high intensity discharge (HID) fixtures that furnish the necessary voltage, current, and waveform for starting and operating the lamp(s). In the United Kingdom, it is sometimes referred to as a choke or control gear.

Current

The electrical rate of flow expressed in amperes similar to the water flow rate in a pipe (gal/min).

Dimming ballast

An alternate device used to obtain the conditions (voltage, current and waveform) for starting and operating the lamp(s) while providing variable light output, i.e. dimming fluorescent lamp source(s). It must be matched to the lamp type, voltage and quantity. It is also available, with less capability, for HID sources.

Emergency lighting

When the normal power supply fails, emergency lighting is the illumination that automatically lights the path towards the exit location(s). It may also serve to satisfy life safety and security lighting requirements.

Fade delay

The time interval between the selection of a new light intensity for a particular lighting zone and the beginning of that zones change to the new level.

Fade time

The total time it takes a dimmer to change lighting from one level to another.

LED driver

A self-contained power supply that has outputs matched to the electrical characteristics of the LED or array of LEDs.

Line voltage

The standard 120 volt power provided by receptacles and for lighting fixtures in commercial spaces, it might refer to 277 volt power feed for fluorescent fixtures.
