DALI luminaire management

The Manage luminaires tab is only visible in rooms and locations with DALI controllers. Unpaired luminaires are displayed on the left, and control channels are displayed with their Paired luminaires (if any) on the right.

If the channel list in Paired luminaires appears doubled up, you can clear DALI pairing from the room’s DALI controller via the System Builder commissioning software. Refer to Commissioning > On-Site Configuration > DALI Pairing for more information.
If a single paired DALI luminaire is offline and gets replaced, the system automatically pairs the new luminaire to the same channel.
If multiple luminaires are offline, each replacement must be manually flashed/identified and paired as described below.

Flashing

To flash a luminaire on and off, click the iah icon flash dali lightbulb symbol. This allows a person in the room to visually identify the luminaire so it can be paired to the correct channel.

The luminaire will stop flashing automatically after a brief time, or you can click the iah icon flash dali progress progress indicator to stop it manually.

Pairing

Click the Pair button next to a luminaire to open the Pair Luminaire dialog.

Use the search bar to filter the list of available channels if necessary, then select the correct channel. You can also click the iah icon flash dali lightbulb symbol in the bottom left corner to flash the luminaire for confirmation without leaving the dialog box. Click the Pair button to complete the process.

The paired luminaire is now shown next to its associated channel on the right. To remove a luminaire from a channel, click the Unpair button.
