Introduction
Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI ^® ) systems should be used where driver-level control is required. DALI is ideal for open space commercial environments. When cubicle and workspace layouts change, the lighting can be regrouped and adjusted as needed. Other typical applications include college lecture halls, hospital operating rooms, and corporate conference rooms. DALI provides tremendous flexibility for both retrofit and new installations. When lamps and drivers are replaced on a DALI system, the wiring stays the same and the DIN-DALI-2 readdresses the new driver with the address and parameters of the original driver.
Crestron® control systems seamlessly connect with the open DALI protocol by way of the DIN-DALI-2 interface. The DIN-DALI-2 interface can work with any Crestron control system as well as any power supply. Crestron devices such as keypads, thermostats, photo and occupancy sensors, gateways, and other Cresnet® devices can easily communicate with the DALI system.
Commissioning lighting groups, detecting faults, and replacing drivers are simple when using the powerful Crestron DALI Commissioning Tool. The user can develop interactive floor plans using Smart Graphics® software, which provides easier monitoring, management, and control of all the light fixtures within the space.
Crestron delivers the most comprehensive DALI driver solutions with 1-, 2-, and 3-lamp versions available for any application, in any part of the world. Crestron Green Light® DALI drivers support dimming a wide range of lamps from 1 to 100% . DALI drivers are the most comprehensive driver solution on the market today. The DALI drivers drive multiple lamp wattages in one unit, which makes lighting design easier and less expensive.
The new line of Crestron dimmable LED drivers provides high-power LED lighting with deep dimming to below 1%. Available in 50 W and 100 W models with DALI control, GLD-LED drivers offer superior, smooth dimming technology using a combination of duty-cycle and current dimming.
The optional built-in power metering feature is unique to Crestron DALI drivers. The ability to measure, monitor, and manage power to each light fixture, while enabling daylight harvesting and load shedding, makes it easy to implement a fully integrated system that combines architectural lighting control and energy management all on one platform. Optional power metering models track real-time energy usage of each load and provide essential statistics to help manage and control utility costs.
For more information on DALI systems, refer to the Commercial Lighting webpage on the Crestron website.

DALI is a protocol used for the direct control of lighting drivers. The DALI standard allows multiple drivers to be daisy-chained using low-voltage wiring for powering on or off and dimming control. Up to 64 independently operating drivers can exist on a single DALI loop. DALI lighting is optimal for applications that require granular control of each fixture, such as open office floor plans and daylight harvesting in classrooms.
Topology free Class 1 or Class 2 DALI control wiring techniques may be used, which are much simpler than wiring in 0 to 10 V dimming systems. DALI systems can report driver failures for easier maintenance and, with Crestron PM drivers, controllers can query energy usage. Additionally, the DALI data is resistant to noise, which allows it to run alongside line-voltage power lines. The Crestron DALI Commissioning Tool simplifies system installation and provides a setup wizard with step-by-step configuration of driver properties, groups, and scenes.
Spaces with changing tenants and large campuses with frequently repurposed rooms are the prime target of DALI systems. Some of the key features are as follows:
- Individual Addresses: Each DALI driver has its own unique address on the system; therefore, the system is able to communicate with each driver independently of the others.
- Number of Addresses: Up to 64 addresses can be on one DALI loop. An unlimited number of loops can be placed on a complete DALI networked system.
- Grouping: DALI drivers can be assigned to 1–16 groups on a loop, without the need for rewiring.
- Bidirectional Communication: Drivers are able to receive information as well as report lamp or driver failures to the central DALI system.
- Readdressing Drivers: If a driver fails on a system, the loop can detect the missing address and readdress it when a new driver is added back in its place.
- Warranty and Compliance: Crestron DALI drivers include a 5-year warranty. The drivers are UL ^® listed, are CE marked, and follow the RoHS Compliant directive.
DALI Requirements
The intent of the DALI protocol is to supply low-cost, interchangeable drivers that are simple to program and commission. DALI requirements are shown below:
- Driver Power Requirements: Drivers must provide universal voltage (115 to 300 V), 50 to 60 Hz, high-power factor, low harmonics, and transient surge protection. When the initial voltage is applied, the lamps go to full on or to a preset level.
- Command Requirements: Drivers are able to receive information and report this information back to the central DALI system regarding lamp or driver failures.
- Lamp Response Requirements: DALI protocol requires a precise logarithmic dimming curve of 254 steps (2.8 % increase per step) so that all drivers dim the same: 0 to 100% for incandescent and fluorescent, 3 to 100% for compact fluorescent, and 0 to 100% for LED.
- Protocol Requirements: The DALI protocol requirements include the intent and electrical requirements of the protocol, bits and bytes requirements, collision detection, and the type of wire to be used for the DALI system.
Emergency and DALI Drivers
Crestron DALI drivers comply with open DALI standards. When the DALI signal is lost or the DIN-DALI-2 override port is triggered, the driver goes to an emergency state (100% ON by default.) This complies with the National Electrical Code® and Life Safety Code® (NFPA 101) standards, as well as many other state and local codes.
In the example below, five of the six fixtures are fed with a normal power source. One of the fixtures is fed with an emergency power source. The Class I or Class II DALI wiring can loop through normal and emergency fixtures.

DALI Loop Wiring
Class I DALI in MC or EMT does not require a shielded wire. When Class II DALI is installed in free air, Crestron recommends using a shielded cable to minimize induced voltage degradation and interference. DALI wire is sized appropriately based upon voltage drop due to cable length. Crestron recommends 16 or 18 AWG based upon cable length. The DALI protocol standard can communicate up to 980 ft (300 m). Per the NEC, class 1 DALI wire may be run in the same conduit as line voltage wire.
