RP-C-EXT-ZB-DALI

The RP-C-EXT-ZB-DALI Zigbee DALI module communicates with the RP-C room controller over the Zigbee TM wireless protocol and provides I/O expansion for lighting control with DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface).

The Zigbee DALI module enables control of different types of lights equipped with DALI electrical ballasts for 220–240 VAC line voltage. The Zigbee DALI module can distribute power (220–240 VAC) from an external power supply to the lights (DALI control gear).

The Zigbee DALI module supports LED lamp control gear (LED drivers) of Device Type 6 (DT6) and fluorescent lamp control gear of Device Type 0 (DT0).

The Zigbee DALI module supports broadcast addressing of the DALI devices. Using the DALI broadcast command, all lights connected to the output are controlled simultaneously for switching on/off and dimming.

The Zigbee DALI module provides one DALI channel (DALI bus). Up to 20 DALI control gear devices can be connected to the Zigbee DALI module.

Zigbee DALI Light Output and Power Output

The Zigbee DALI module has one DALI light output for control of lights with electronic ballasts, LED drivers, and other control gear with DALI interface and one power output for power distribution to the control gear.

For more information, see Zigbee DALI Light Output and Power Output .

Zigbee Modules Power Distribution

The RP controller expansion Zigbee modules have power distribution capability, which means that the module distributes the AC mains voltage (220–240 VAC) from the Power Input terminals to the light control gear connected to the Power Output terminals.

For more information, see Zigbee Modules Power Distribution .

Zigbee Modules Power Consumption Monitoring

RP controller expansion Zigbee modules can measure and monitor the power consumption for the loads connected to the module.

For more information, see Zigbee Modules Power Consumption Monitoring .

Zigbee Modules Memory

RP controller expansion Zigbee modules have two types of memory, flash memory and RAM.

For more information, see Zigbee Modules Memory .

Zigbee Modules Wireless Connectivity

The RP controller expansion Zigbee modules are Zigbee Certified Products. The Zigbee modules' wireless connectivity option is used for connecting to and communicating with the RP controller.

For more information, see Zigbee Modules Wireless Connectivity .

Zigbee Modules Screw Terminals

The RP controller expansion Zigbee modules have fixed screw terminals for the power input, power output, and light output.

For more information, see Zigbee Modules Screw Terminals .

Zigbee Modules LED

There is one LED on the front panel of the RP controller expansion Zigbee modules.

For more information, see Zigbee Modules LED .

Zigbee Modules Reset Button

The RP controller expansion Zigbee modules have a Reset button on the front.

For more information, see Zigbee Modules Reset Button .

Zigbee Modules Device Installation

The RP controller expansion Zigbee modules are designed to be installed on a flat surface on a ceiling.

For more information, see Zigbee Modules Device Installation .

Wiring

The wiring recommendations provide guidance regarding wiring of the Central IO modules, automation servers, BACnet/IP devices, RP controller expansion modules, and Operator Display.

For more information, see Wiring .

BACnet/IP Device Firmware Management

Using WorkStation, you can update the firmware of multiple BACnet/IP devices and their attached SpaceLogic Sensor devices and RP controller expansion modules at the same time with minimum downtime. In particular, the universal upgrade package simplifies the update process and requires minimal user involvement and coordination.

Tip:

SpaceLogic Sensor devices and RP controller expansion modules are supported by the RP controller.

For more information, see BACnet/IP Device Firmware Management .

Zigbee Modules Regulatory Compliance and Approvals

This section provides information on regulatory compliance and approvals for the RP controller expansion Zigbee modules.
