Tridonic DALI interface with RS232 cable


The Tridonic DALI interface has a power LED, a status LED and a test/configuration button.


For those in a hurry who do not want to read through everything: For LichtWART Switch to data transmission mode 1 (DALI SCI).

  • Press test button
  • Release test button during 4th orange phase.
    DALI Interface RS232 PS/S changes to data transmission mode 1

Power LED

  • green: trouble-free operation
  • off:  Device or power failure

Status LED

  • green, intermittently flickering: trouble-free operation
  • green, periodically on/off every 0.5 s: test mode: manually repeated
  • orange, regularly every 0.5 s on/off: Test mode: automatically repeated
  • off: Device or mains failure
  • red, flickering intermittently: fault at DALI/DSI output

Test/configuration button

The test button can be used to trigger tests as well as certain functions.

Trigger function:

  • Press the test button.
  • Release test button in the desired orange phase - function is triggered.

Orange phase:

  1. End test mode
  2. Test mode: repeated automatically
  3. Display configuration of RS232 (RJ45) interface
  4. Switch to data transmission mode 1 (DALI SCI)
  5. Switch to data transmission mode 2 (DALI SCI2)

Test mode

Repeat manually:

  • Press test button for maximum 2 seconds. Status LED starts flashing green and all lights are switched on.
  • Each time the button is pressed for less than 2 seconds, the luminaires are switched on and off alternately.
  • To end test mode, press test button and release during 1st orange phase. Automatically exits as soon as a DALI command is received.

Automatically repeated:

  • Press test button.
  • Release test button during 2nd orange phase.
    All luminaires are switched on and off regularly every 2.5 seconds.
  • To exit test mode, press test button and release during 1st orange phase.

Configuration of the RS232 (RJ45) interface

The interface RS232 (RJ45) of the DALI Interface RS232 PS/S allows two modes of data transmission:
  • Data transmission mode 1 (use for LichtWART)
    Transmission rate: 19200 baud
    Unidirectional transmission of DALI/DSI commands
    Replaces DALI SCI (24033463)
  • Data transmission mode 2 (default)
    Transmission rate: 38400 baud
    Bidirectional transmission of DALI/DSI commands
    Replaces DALI SCI2 (24166096)

Display configuration of RS232 (RJ45) interface

  • Press test button
  • Release test button during 3rd orange phase
    Current configuration is displayed
    - Status LED orange, on/off once 0.5 s: Data transmission mode 1 (DALI SCI) - necessary for LichtWART
    - Status LED orange, on/off twice 0.5 s: Data transmission mode 2 (DALI SCI2)

For LichtWART:
Change to data transmission mode 1 (DALI SCI)

  • Press test button
  • Release test button during 4th orange phase:
    DALI Interface RS232 PS/S changes to data transmission mode 1

For information only:
Change to data transmission mode 2 (DALI SCI2)

  • Press test button
  • Release test button during 5th orange phase:
    DALI Interface RS232 PS/S changes to data transmission mode 2
