The DALI-2 Application Controller is a compact and versatile control unit designed for seamless integration into modern lighting systems. It supports the full range of Tridonic control gear with both DALI and DALI-2 protocols, as well as compatible devices certified by other manufacturers. This broad compatibility makes it a highly flexible choice for diverse installations across commercial, industrial, and architectural environments. The controller is built for future scalability, allowing firmware updates to be performed easily via Bluetooth through the sCS commissioning mobile app, ensuring ongoing performance improvements and feature upgrades without the need for hardware replacement.
Equipped with four independent inputs, the DALI-2 Application Controller enables the direct connection of floating contacts or standard momentary switches, allowing for convenient manual control or integration with external systems. The controller draws power directly from the DALI line, simplifying wiring and reducing installation complexity. Its compact housing and low-profile dimensions make it ideal for integration into limited spaces, whether within luminaires, control panels, or ceiling voids.
In operation, the controller offers full DALI functionality, including addressing, grouping, and scene control for flexible lighting management. It also supports sensor-based automation for occupancy or movement detection and daylight-linking, allowing the lighting system to automatically respond to environmental changes and user activity. This intelligent behavior ensures optimal comfort, efficiency, and adaptability in dynamic spaces such as offices, retail areas, and production halls. Additionally, the controller supports tunable white applications, enabling precise control of color temperature for circadian lighting schemes and human-centric lighting concepts.
Configuration and commissioning are streamlined through the sCS commissioning mobile app, available for both Android and iOS platforms. The app provides an intuitive interface for system setup, parameter adjustments, and firmware updates via Bluetooth, eliminating the need for wired programming or complex tools. Wireless communication through Bluetooth version 4.1 or higher allows convenient access within a range of up to 20 meters, making commissioning and maintenance tasks fast and efficient.
Constructed from durable Lexan 923 material in light grey (similar to RAL 7035), the housing ensures robust protection and stability under typical installation conditions. The DALI-2 Application Controller operates reliably within a wide storage temperature range from –25°C to +60°C and humidity levels from 20% to 90% (non-condensing). It offers a start-up time of six seconds or less and ensures dependable system response across various operating conditions. Backed by a five-year guarantee, the DALI-2 Application Controller provides a long-term, dependable solution for advanced lighting control networks seeking intelligent functionality, interoperability, and ease of use.
