What is the RSR-DLI?

The RSR-DLI allows the integration of an addressable DLI
network into a Rako system. Up to 64 DLI ballasts can be
assigned to 15 different channels in a single room either by
DLI short addresses or by DLI groups. Auto-heal
functionality for easy replacement of faulty ballasts is also
available.

What is DLI?

DLI is a protocol by which a network of compatible ballasts
can communicate with each via bi-directional data
exchange. Ballasts are assigned a unique address
between 0 and 63 (called a Short Address) so they are
identifiable to the DLI controller (RSR-DLI).

Three different types of commands can be sent across the
DLI network.

Direct – A command sent to a single ballast (short
address).

Group – Ballast can be associated to one another within a
network by using DLI groups. A group command will be
sent to all Ballasts within the DLI group.

Broadcast – A command sent to every ballast on the DLI
network.

Installing the RSR-DLI

The RSR-DLI works off a 12V DC, a suitable power supply attached to a 13A plug is provided with
the product. When successful powered up LED 2: the “Power LED” will illuminate.

Note that this power supply is to power the circuit board and DLI output of the RSR-DLI only. The
power for the fittings themselves is provided directly to the ballast, the output from the RSR-DLI is
a control signal only.

Adding the RSR-DLI as a device

For the RSR-DLI to operate correctly with a Rako system some initial
setup must be performed. This is done using a PC running Rasoft Pro
(RSR-DLI is not supported by RASOFT classic) and communicating via
a RAKO Bridge/HUB or RAMPI programming device.

Open the Project File for the installed Rako system and make sure that
Rasoft is connected to a communication device.

NB

The communication window at the bottom right should indicate whether a device is connected or not. In this
case a RAMPI is connected. For instructions on how to connect to a communication device see Rasoft Pro
programming guides and applicable instruction manuals.

- Select “File” - “New device” to bring up the “New device Wizard” and choose “RSR-DLI” from the
list.

- Choose a suitable device name (if you have multiple RSR-DLIs make sure it is identifiable from
this description). Leave “Device ID” blank with the “Automatic ID” box checked.

- Associate the RSR-DLI to a room from the drop down menu. The room selected here will set the
“Local Room” for this device.
