DALI in Niko Home Control - What types of DALI devices are supported?

At present, you can use DALI types DT0 through DT7 with the Broadcast and Addressable modules.

Lamps/drivers of the DT8 type (colour control gear) cannot yet be used in Niko Home Control.

 

Part  Type of control gear Device Type Number
201  Fluorescent lamp control gear Device Type 0 (DT0) 
202  Self-contained emergency control gear Device Type 1 (DT1)
203  Discharge (HID) lamp control gear Device Type 2 (DT2)
204  Low-voltage halogen lamp control gear Device Type 3 (DT3)
205  Incandescent lamp dimmer Device Type 4 (DT4)
206  Conversion to DC voltage (1-10V, 0-10V converter) Device Type 5 (DT5)
207  LED lamp control gear Device Type 6 (DT6)
208  Switching (relay) control gear Device Type 7 (DT7)
209  Colour control gear Device Type 8 (DT8)

 

Note:
Colour control is possible with NHC DALI-2 Addressable modules when for example DT6 LED drivers support an operating mode with dual DALI addresses.
LED drivers with a dual DALI addressing mode are detected as two DALI devices by NHC DALI-2 addressable modules.
One DALI address can then be configured to change the light intensity, and the other DALI address can be set to change the color or color temperature.
Example LED drivers with a dual DALI addressing are the products from Lunatone with operating mode Balance&Dim or Color&Dim.
