Catalog Number Description
SLC5502DAL Two-Channel DALI Gateway
C-BUS

OUTPUT UNITS
The C-Bus
TM
Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI) Gateway provides an isolated
two-way communications path between a C-Bus network and two DALI networks,
making it possible to use the C-Bus network to control and monitor DALI ballasts.
The DALI gateway constantly monitors both DALI networks and can detect and report
faulty lamps in uorescent ballasts or non-functional DALI ballasts.
Product Features
• Provides two-way communications between
C-Bus and DALI networks, routing selected
messages from one to the other
• Unit is transparent and invisible to DALI
ballasts
• Pre-programmed C-Bus to DALI and DALI to
C-Bus addressing structure
• Unit/Comms and C-Bus LEDs show the
status of data transmissions, the unit’s power,
the C-Bus network’s power, and the presence
of the C-Bus clock
• Software-selectable network burden and
network clock
• Standard built-in C-Bus network connectors:
(2) RJ-45
• Non-volatile memory to store operating status
for recovery from a power outage
• Receives data and power over the network,
so the unit does not require power packs or
line-voltage connections
Distributed Intelligence
• Compatible with all C-Bus devices and the
Powerlink
®
NF3000G3C controller
• C-Bus side of interface is easily congured
with the C-Bus Toolkit Software
