Diagnostics
The Diagnostics menu contains functions for testing the devices connected to the DALI line, as
well as for testing communication between the devices and other controllers.
Test Commands
Test Commands is used to send DALI commands to addresses, groups or ALL devices, and none
of the commands will change any of the stored settings in the devices.
“Devices:ALL” can always be selected even if no devices are responding. This allows for the
simple testing commands to be broadcast to determine if a connected DALI device can still
receive DALI commands but has a fault and does not reply to DALI commands. DALI V2
commands are also present, such as ‘Identify’
The commands that can be sent are:
• Off – turns the lamp off
• Minimum – lamp level is set to the minimum level
• Maximum – lamp level is set to the maximum level
• Up – lamp level is increased by the number of steps set with fade rate
• Down – lamp level is decreased by the number of steps set with fade rate
• Identify – Identify a device (Only applicable to DALI V2 devices)
• Fade – lamp level is continuously faded between 1% and 100% until enter or escape is
pressed.
• Scene X – lamp level is set to the level stored for scene X (unless stored level is MASK)
• Level – sends an Arc Level Command with a selectable intensity
In the example below, the device with address 16 would be set to the level for scene 11.
Note: The commands sent for Test Commands will still be sent even if Live Preview is disabled.
If Live Preview is enabled, selecting an address/group will cause that address/group to be set at
maximum and all others at minimum.
Selectable values:
• Address/Group (Address:0-63, Group:0-15, Devices:ALL) – The address or group of the
device(s) to send a test command to.
• Command (OFF, MIN, MAX, UP, DOWN, FADE, SCENE, LEVEL) – The command to be sent.
Press enter to send the command to the selected device(s) (except when SCENE or LEVEL
is selected).
• Scene (0-15) – Only available when SCENE is the selected command. Press enter to send
a “go to scene X” command to the selected device(s) where X is the selected scene.
• Level (0-255) – Only available when LEVEL is the selected command. Press enter to send
a “go to level X” command to the selected device(s) where X is the selected level.
