Shelly DALI Dimmer Gen3

Main features

• DALI application controller: Supports DALI bus control in a single-master configuration of direct or indirect DALI control gear lights.

• DALI features: Control light intensity of attached control gear (DT6). Color temperature control is not supported.

• DALI power on default: off

• DALI on bus failure: turn on at 100%

• Shelly Plus Add-on compatible: The Device supports connection with the sensor interface to the Shelly Plus devices.

• Switch/Button input mode: Allows flexible input control through switches or buttons.

• One/dual button dimming control: Allows to use the full functionalities of the Device for dimming control with any wall switch configuration.

• Night mode: Enables to set a specific brightness of input lights during nighttime.

• Min/Max brightness: Reframes the range of the dimming signal to get more precise brightness control on the output.

• Button fade rate: Controls how quickly the output brightness changes while holding the button(s).

• Transition duration: Controls the time for dimming from 0 to 100 %.

• Weekly schedules: Supports daily schedules and routines, including setting of brightness, transition duration, and flip value of the dimming signal.

• Auto on/off timers: Enables auto on/off timer setting.

• Local actions: Allows creating automation scenarios within the local Wi-Fi network, including setting of brightness, transition duration, and flip value of the dimming signal.

• Webhooks: Support automation through lightweight, event-driven communication with other devices.

• BLE Gateway: Facilitates communication between BLE and Wi-Fi-enabled devices.

• Wi-Fi Range Extender: Retransmits the Wi-Fi signal and extends its reach.

• Scripting: Allows creating automation scenarios through scripts.

• Compatibility: Highly compatible with 3rd Party home automation systems.

• KNX: Supports KNXnet/IP communication

• No need for hub: Ready for use locally or remotely via Shelly Smart Control or 3rd Party systems.
