Remapping
Remapping allows devices on the DALI line to be given new addresses, and will usually be
required after random addressing if devices need to have specific addresses (which is
recommended). The following example will remap address 14 to address 55:
When selecting the new address, a message will be displayed indicating if the selected address is
not currently used on the line (as shown in the above figure).
If the new address is currently assigned to a device on the line, then the addresses of both
devices will be swapped, provided there is at least one unused address available on the line.
The ADDICT
®
also allows a new address of “CLR” (CLEAR) to be selected and this causes the
device with the old address to have its address cleared. The following example will clear address
7 (and therefore that device will now have no address):
Selectable values:
• Old Address (0 – 63) – The current address of the device being remapped
• New Address (0 – 63, CLR) – The new address (or no address) of the device being
remapped. Press enter to remap the device.
TIP! If the ADDICT
®
reports no devices and you are sure that you are correctly connected to the
line, you may have duplicate addresses in devices on the line. If you suspect this cause, you can
correct the problem by one of the following:
a) Select “Address ALL” for random addressing or physical selection – this will initially clear
all addresses
b) If the duplicated address is known, clear that address (refer above) using remapping to
CLR
Assign Groups
Once devices have been given addresses, they can then be assigned to one or more of the 16
DALI groups as required. Assign Groups provides a visual method of assigning groups to a
device, with ticks indicating assigned groups and crosses indicating unassigned groups. The
following example shows address 30 is currently assigned to groups 3, 10 and 15:
