Installation steps

mounting details

Power down & Isolate DALI bus prior to wiring the device

Switch plate mounting

1. Select a dry location for device and ensure that there is enough physical room for device and switches

without applying excessive pressure on wall plate.

2. If mounting behind switch plate ensure that all wires are not damaged and device is isolated from any

mains wires that may be present.

3. Connect grey input wires into each dry contact switch and use the purple common wire to loop into the

other side of switches contacts. Dry contact input wires must not exceed 1 meter.

4. Connect DALI network to orange wires. DALI is a non polarised communication protocol.

5. Ensure that after mounting none of the bare wires are exposed.

3rd party integration

1. Select a dry location for device and ensure there is enough physical room for the device if mounted
inside a housing

2. Connect grey input wires into the volt free dry contact out of the 3rd part device (BMS, security, reed

switch) and use purple common wire as a loop into the other side of volt free outputs.

3. Ensure that the whole installation is touch safe.
