Crestron DIN-DLI DALI-2 Interface, DIN Rail Mount, 64 Devices

Crestron part number DIN-DLI

The Crestron DIN-DLI is a DALI-2 certified DALI interface that lets a Crestron control system control one DALI loop of up to 64 devices. The compact 3M wide DIN rail module connects to the control system over Cresnet or Ethernet and supplies power for DALI loop communication.

About the Crestron DIN-DLI

It supports DALI device types DT0, DT1, DT2, DT3, DT4, DT5, DT6, DT7 and DT8 Tc, with up to 64 DALI drivers in up to 16 DALI groups. Colour temperature can be changed quickly using Scene Approximation. The DALI loop connects to paralleled DA+ and DA- spring terminals, and the module provides loop power of 0.17 A continuous and 0.25 A maximum.

Power comes either from the Cresnet network, using 6 W, or from PoE as an IEEE 802.3af (802.3at Type 1) Class 2 powered device using 6.5 W, which allows a single-wire installation. Communication with Crestron Home OS is over 100BASE-TX Ethernet with MbedTLS encryption. Commissioning is done through a web user interface, and module to module connectors pass Cresnet and override to connected modules.

On the front panel, a TEST button gives local control of the lights and, when held, starts a single device replacement. An override input and button put the module into override mode, and a recessed RESET button performs a factory restore when held for ten seconds. The module occupies 3 DIN module spaces (54 mm) and suits in-cabinet air temperatures of 0 to 50 °C.

Questions about the Crestron DIN-DLI

What is the Crestron DIN-DLI?

It is a DALI-2 certified DALI interface for Crestron control systems, housed in a compact 3M wide DIN rail enclosure. It controls one DALI loop of up to 64 devices, supplies DALI loop power for communication, and connects to the control system over Cresnet or Ethernet.

Which DALI devices does the DIN-DLI support?

It controls DALI device types DT0, DT1, DT2, DT3, DT4, DT5, DT6, DT7 and DT8 Tc. One loop supports up to 64 DALI drivers in up to 16 DALI groups, and Scene Approximation gives fast colour temperature control.

How is the DIN-DLI powered?

It can be powered from the Cresnet network, using 6 W (250 mA at 24 V), or by PoE as an IEEE 802.3af (802.3at Type 1) Class 2 powered device using 6.5 W. Crestron notes that PoE power allows a single-wire installation.

Does it work with Crestron Home?

Yes. It communicates with Crestron Home OS over 100BASE-TX Ethernet, using MbedTLS encryption, and is commissioned through a web user interface. It can also connect to a Crestron control system over Cresnet, where it operates in secondary mode.

Does the module power the DALI bus?

Yes. It provides power and communication for its DALI loop, rated at 0.17 A continuous and 0.25 A maximum. The loop connects to paralleled DA+ and DA- spring terminals, and a TEST button on the front gives local control of the lights.

How much is the Crestron DIN-DLI?

Crestron asks its dealers to give the price of the DIN-DLI directly rather than publish it online. Add it to your quote list and we will send you a written quote, with delivery, and installation and programming if you need them.

Can 1Install supply, install and programme the DIN-DLI?

Yes. 1Install is an authorised Crestron Elite Partner with offices in Skerries, Co. Dublin and Cork. We can supply the DIN-DLI on its own, or install, set up and programme it as part of your system. Installation visits are €440 for 4 hours or €880 for a full day, plus VAT and travel.

Does the DIN-DLI come with a warranty?

Yes. Everything we supply is new, genuine Crestron with Crestron's standard warranty. If the DIN-DLI develops a fault, contact us and we will handle the claim with Crestron. If we installed it, our workmanship is guaranteed for the lifetime of the system.

Is the DIN-DLI in stock?

We order Crestron for each quote, so availability depends on Crestron's stock at the time. We check it before we quote and put the expected delivery date on your quote, so you know where you stand before you pay.

Can I buy the DIN-DLI without installation?

Yes. We supply Crestron to end users, with or without installation. Like most Crestron devices of this type, it needs setting up or programming before it works in a system, and we can quote for that too.
