Using Microcomputers for Lighting Appliances Control Via DALI Bus
Authors: , ,
Abstract: Article concerns the DALI bus theoretical aspects and practical applications. As a state of the art technology, the DALI bus has been developed especially for illumination systems control. Authors are outlining communication basic principles related to the physical layer and they go also deeper to more complex data transaction among particular devices details. The article main topic is aimed at two device models based on microcontroller concept and developed for the DALI bus technology application possibilities demonstration. The first of those two devices is a DALI slave unit enabling the light source or multi switch with light indication components control via DALI bus. The second device measures the ambient illumination intensity, and it also detects errors at the load side at the same time. The implemented version specifications are presented as well, and the system components are described from both the design and from functional point of view.
