DALI Integration via a BACnet Listed Protocol Converter

Lumisys uses Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI), the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standard for fluorescent lamp ballasts and BACnet®, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) recognized ANSI/ASHRAE standard data communication protocol for building automation to enable discreet control of DALI compliant digital ballasts within the scope of the Building Automation System (BAS).

Lumisys accomplishes this through the Lumisys MINT™ product solution. This elegant union of two open, international protocol standards enabling Building Automation Systems the ability to make daylight harvesting and demand response load shedding an effective element of the energy management strategy.

By employing open standard protocols which are not exclusively owned by a single company the Lumisys MINT product solution greatly simplifies the dream of daylight harvesting that can be managed and verified by the Building Automation System.
