Workflow of the software
A C-Bus and DALI installation can be programmed in various methods. The workflow defines a possible procedure.
-
Create a new project and fill in the project information in the required fields, see Create project
-
Create and add networks as per project requirement, see Add networks
NOTE: Each project can have a maximum of 255 networks. -
Add devices to the network from Library window, see Library Window
NOTE: If C-Bus DALI-2 Gateway has been added to the project, the DALI devices must be added into the DALI lines. -
Create applications, see Add applications
-
Add group address information to applications from C-Bus Application section.
-
Set properties for the devices using the Properties window, see Properties window
-
Open and scan the C-Bus network and the DALI line if required, see Network Devices
Result: The software searches for the devices in the network.
-
Identify the DALI-2 devices in the network using Auto Identify or Identify functions.
NOTE: If the C-Bus devices are already addressed, then this step is not required. Verify the flashing lights in the physical device. -
Extract the fully matching devices from Network Devices to Devices in Project section, see Extract devices
-
Deploy each configured/reconciled device to the network, see Deploy device to network
Result: The device information is displayed in the Deployment Queue window.
