DALI Pushbutton Coupler
L-DALI-BM2:DALI Pushbutton Coupler
The LDALI-BM2 pushbutton coupler integrates customary light pushbuttons and switches into a DALI channel. With the CEA-709/DALI or BACnet/DALI controllers, a compact control module with 4 free programmable switching inputs is available. When the pushbutton is pressed, DALI commands are sent to a DALI group within the DALI channel or even across DALI bus limits to the corresponding building network (via L-DALI controller)2
Each input receives its own functions independent of the switching behaviour (short or long push of a button, toggle, button, or switch mode). The following functions are available: Dim up, dim down, Off, On with last dimming value, Scene recall: 1–15, Dim to a specified value in %, Color temperature warmer/colder, Active auto mode.
In the mode toggle, the function is carried out depending on the lighting status (toggle switch).
The module LDALI-BM1 is directly connected to a DALI channel and also supplied with energy by that channel.
