DALI2 Solutions

The DALI-2 lighting control market is home to a wide range of well-established and innovative solutions, including systems from Zencontrol, Ozuno Rapix, Delmatic DALI, Tridonic DALI, and Osram DALI. Each of these manufacturers brings unique strengths and technologies to the table, offering tailored approaches to lighting automation, monitoring, and energy efficiency. From advanced commissioning tools and intelligent sensors to flexible integration with building management systems, these solutions are designed to meet the diverse needs of commercial, industrial, and architectural lighting projects. Ultimately, the choice between them often depends on specific project requirements, scalability expectations, and client preferences for functionality and user experience.

One of the more popular DALI2 solutions in UK and Ireland is Ozuno Rapix, an Australian brand with global reach and a passion for innovation.

Typical features of a DALI2 Lighting Control Solution?

  • 💡 Two-way communication: Devices such as sensors, switches, and drivers exchange data for precise control and feedback.

  • 🎛ī¸ Individual and group control: Lights can be controlled individually, in groups, or via broadcast for flexible scene management.

  • đŸ”ĸ Scene and preset management: Supports multiple lighting scenes and stored presets for different activities or moods.

  • 🕹ī¸ Multi-vendor interoperability: All certified DALI-2 products follow standardized protocols, ensuring compatibility across brands.

  • 🌡ī¸ Integrated sensors: DALI-2 includes standardized interfaces for presence, motion, and light level sensors.

  • 🧠 Addressable and reconfigurable: Each device has a unique address and can be reprogrammed without rewiring.

  • 🧩 Control devices support: Native inclusion of input devices like push buttons, sliders, and occupancy sensors (unlike original DALI).

  • đŸĸ Building management integration: Easily integrates with BMS systems (BACnet, KNX, Modbus, etc.) for centralized control.

  • ⚙ī¸ Automatic fault reporting: Continuous monitoring of device status (e.g. lamp failure, communication loss).

  • 🔌 Bus-powered control: Uses a simple 2-wire, polarity-free bus for both communication and power of control devices.

  • 📈 Energy efficiency and analytics: Supports daylight harvesting, occupancy-based control, and energy usage reporting.

  • 🕰ī¸ Flexible scheduling: Enables time-based and event-triggered control through gateways or software platforms.

  • 🔄 Backward compatibility: Works with legacy DALI devices while offering enhanced performance and functionality.
