basic DALI installation – Broadcast control
Project scope
- office with 2 (-10) luminaires combined to 1 group
- Broadcast control
- Sensor for movement / presence
Light turns on when movement / presence is detected and turns off after 10 mins of absence - Sensor for constant light control (energy saving)
light control depending on the brightness inside a room - Manual control
Manual on / off (switch)
Manual dimming: switches off constant light control (sensor for movement / presence is detection remains active)
