Quick guide from the manual

This device is a Zigbee 3.0 converter that allows control of DALI or 0/1-10V lighting systems via Zigbee signals or a physical push switch. Before installation, ensure the power is disconnected. The device requires specific configuration via DIP switches before it is powered on. Key operations include pairing with a Zigbee hub or using TouchLink for direct remote control.

Device configuration

The device uses a bank of 10 DIP switches to define its operating mode. Important: Never change DIP switch settings while the device is powered.

Output Selection (Switch 10): Set to DALI or 0/1-10V mode.
DALI Device Type (Switches 8-9): Select the appropriate DALI type (DIM, DT8 Tc, DT8 XY, or DT8 RGBW) when in DALI mode.
Control Mode (Switch 7): Choose between Address Mode (00-63) or Group Mode (0-15).
Address/Group Selection (Switches 1-6): Set the specific DALI address or group number.

Wiring and installation

The device supports 110-240V AC input. It features a built-in DALI bus power supply (max 50mA), capable of powering up to 25 DALI control gears. Ensure the wiring matches the specific output type (DALI or 0/1-10V) as shown in the connection diagrams. The device is IP20 rated and should not be exposed to moisture.

Zigbee network pairing

There are two primary methods to connect the device to a network:

Coordinator/Hub: Put your Zigbee controller into pairing mode, then power on the device. The device will enter pairing mode automatically. The LED will blink 5 times upon successful connection.
TouchLink: Bring the remote within 10cm of the device. Use the 'Prog' button or power cycle the device to initiate TouchLink commissioning. This allows direct control without a hub.

Advanced features

Find and Bind: Use the 'Prog' button (3 presses) to enter Find and Bind mode to link with target nodes.
Green Power Switch: The device supports up to 20 Zigbee Green Power switches. Use the 'Prog' button (4 presses) to enter learning mode.
OTA Updates: The device automatically checks for firmware updates from the Zigbee hub every 10 minutes.

Factory reset

If the device needs to be reset to factory defaults, press the 'Prog' button 5 times continuously, or power cycle the device 5 times from the master breaker. The LED will flash 3 times to confirm the reset.

Operation via push switch

When connected to an AC push switch, you can control the light intensity:

Click: Switch ON/OFF.
Press and hold: Increase or decrease light intensity. Release and press again to reverse the dimming direction.

Practical help

Common problems

Pairing with Zigbee network fails

Ensure the device is not already paired. Perform a factory reset by pressing the 'Prog' button 5 times or power cycling 5 times.

TouchLink commissioning fails

Ensure the remote is within 10cm of the device. If it times out (180s), reset the device power and try again.

DIP switch settings not taking effect

DIP switches must be set while the device is powered OFF. Changes made while powered ON will not be registered.

Before use

Disconnect power before changing any DIP switch settings.
Verify the input voltage is 110-240V AC.
Ensure the DALI bus load does not exceed 50mA (max 25 control gears).
Confirm the desired output mode (DALI or 0/1-10V) is set via switch 10.
If using DALI, ensure the correct device type (DT6/DT8) is selected via switches 8-9.
