DALI Alliance Rolls Out Wireless To DALI Gateways Test, Certification Specifications
KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 23 (Bernama) -- The DALI Alliance, the international authority for lighting technology standardisation, has launched new test and certification specifications for Wireless to DALI Gateways.
The release allows seamless control of wired DALI devices from either Bluetooth Networked Lighting Control (NLC) or Zigbee wireless ecosystems and provides access to data from DALI systems, paving the way for increased interoperability and flexibility in the lighting industry.
“The introduction of these test and certification specifications for Wireless to DALI Gateways is a significant milestone. It opens up new possibilities for integrating DALI with wireless systems, creating a broader range of solutions for the industry.
“By standardising these gateways, we are promoting interoperability and providing a path forward for developers, manufacturers, and professionals in building automation,” said the DALI Alliance General Manager, Paul Drosihn.
According to the DALI Alliance in a statement, the new specifications support both wired and wireless connectivity within lighting systems, giving users greater flexibility to select the most suitable lighting control solution for specific applications.
The specifications ensures that standardised gateways translate effectively between DALI systems and Bluetooth NLC or Zigbee wireless protocols, providing a reliable link between wired and wireless technologies. This standardisation is designed to boost market confidence and accelerate adoption of DALI-based solutions in smart building environments.
The DALI Alliance's commitment to open, industry-defined specifications helps avoid compatibility issues associated with proprietary solutions and ensures a consistent user experience across different lighting and control systems.
