The differential of the DALI broadcasts messaging from the DALI gateway via a C-Bus Group vs Sending broadcasts from a DALI Dual Power Supply via the Push Buttons on the front of the power supply.

1. Sending broadcasts from the DALI gateway via a C-Bus Group.

2. Sending broadcasts from a DALI Dual Power Supply via the Push Buttons on the front of the power supply.

They're different commands with the same outcome.

Sending broadcast from the DALI gateway via a C-Bus Group use ARC command i.e it come with a fade time before the ARC power level of 254(100%) and 0(Off)

Sending broadcast from a DALI Dual Power Supply via the Push Buttons on the front of the power supply is direct Max and Off

Suppose the following happens when connecting the DCCABKIT6 cable between Laptop and DALIcontrol Duo Mode 3 Power Supply (DCDALCIP250-2).

In Device Manager find something like

The cable has likely been used with some other product that has recognised the FDTI chip and installed this LibUSB driver which is not recognised by the Simple Wizard which sees a different device ID

BEFORE GOING FURTHER REALISE THAT ONCE COMPLETE THE OTHER DEVICE WILL NO LONGER FIND ITS REQUIRED DRIVER.

Right click on this entry in the Device Manager and select Properties from the menu

And proceed to the Driver tab

…and select <Update Driver>

… and Select <Browse my computer for Drivers>

Select <Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer>

With this next Dialog un-tick the Show compatible hardware

In this case you should see Manufacturer FTDI and Select from the Model USB Serial Port which should start the install finishing with…

From here you should now be able to connect.

It is important to note that when connecting to the DALIcontrol Duo Mode 3 Power Supply (DCDALCIP250-2) with the DCCABKIT6 programming cable and running DCBMWizard or SimpleWizard that the power supply be in mode 1. To achieve this on the DCDALCIP250-2 press and hold the <ON A> button and momentarily press the <TEST A> button. The Line A indicator will single pulse 5x to indicate the mode.

If there is a compatible driver installed you can try tick Show Compatible hardware, then try selecting one of the drivers below.

If there are no drivers to be found on the Computer in question it is then possible to download the software by going to the following on  your web browser https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/articles/4411305694610-Install-or-update-FTDI-drivers and follow the instructions laid out.

Also go to https://ftdichip.com/drivers/  and follow up with https://ftdichip.com/document/installation-guides/

The integrated C-Bus Power Supply can be enabled or disabled via the front panel by performing a short press on the top right channel button whilst holding down the top left channel button to toggle the enabled state.

By default, the integrated 200 mA C-Bus Power supply is disabled.

The enabled status of the integrated C-Bus power supply is shown on the Unit indicator.

 (Green - Enable, Yellow - Disable).

For 5508RVF and 5504RVF

Is it a bell press mech and a bus coupler or can you use a 30 series C Bus Master and Slave mech with the bell press mech front end?

The 30 mech adapter provides a led indicator.

The bus coupler plus momentary Prestige button looks better but you lose the led indicator

To factory reset the daligateway2. Simply press the SR button with pointy device i.e a paper clip for 10 Seconds. Release then a long press for more than 0.5 sec.

Issue:

BLUE Open Studio is not retaining ALARMs History after 24 Hours .

Product Line: 

Blue Open Studio .

Resolution:

The Alarm Object Properties Filters -> Interval is set to Period by default,

Changing the Interval settings to Latest or specify a Period should solve the issue.

Where there is a hybrid inverter with DC coupled battery, connect AC circuit to solar position on the MAXBAR+.

In this instance, the battery position on MAXBAR+ can be used for the second solar system or sub board.

Please ensure to affix the appropriate sticker, provided in the New Energy Protection Kit, to MAXBAR+ and the enclosure.

Yes, solar & battery MCB's can be replaced for higher or lower current ratings as long the combined potential current from solar and battery does not exceed 100A.

The most suitable enclosure for MAXBAR+ busbars are Clipsal MAX9 Type 3 plastic enclosures due to 150mm spacing between din rails.

For comprehensive list of suitable Clipsal enclosures, refer to MAXBAR+ Complementary Technical Guide.

MAXBAR+ is specifically designed to help protect switchboards against overloading from multiple energy sources including grid, solar, battery & in the future EV to grid. 

MAXBAR+ groups all energy sources on to one busbar then distributes outgoing energy via the dedicated home circuit.

MAXBAR+ comes with predefined positions for circuit protection devices to ensure that current flowing on the busbar does not accumulate from multiple energy sources & therefore protect against overloading.

Yes, the EV charging RCBO can be replaced with lower current rating if required. 

 Clipsal recommends 40A circuits with appropriately sized cable to avoid any potential nuisance tripping. 

MAXBAR+ comes with predefined positions for circuit protection devices to ensure that current flowing on the busbar does not accumulate from multiple energy sources & therefore protect against overloading, aided by pictograms

MAXBAR+ is intended to future-proof switch boards for new energy sources like solar, battery & EV to grid.

No, MAXBAR+ is specifically designed not to be cut.

MAXBAR+ is intended  to future-proof switch boards for new energy sources like solar, battery & EV to grid.

Where space in existing switch boards is limited, Clipsal recommends the use of an appropriate sub board.

No, MAXBAR+ is designed to be fitted to top side of Clipsal MAX9 circuit protection devices.

Where there are two solar inverters, connect the second inverter to the battery position on the MAXBAR+.

Please ensure to affix spare solar sticker, provided in the New Energy Protection Kit, to MAXBAR+ and the enclosure.

Issue:

I am adding MAXBAR+ to a house with existing battery backup system

Resolution:

MAXBAR+ is compatible with most battery systems currently on the market, however some systems use a separate backup interface/gateway which may have built in metering.

Using MAXBAR+ in these instances could cause issues with the battery systems app as the metering could be bypassed. 

Issue:

I am adding MAXBAR+ to a house with 2 sub boards

Resolution:

Where there is just one inverter, then a second sub board can be connected to battery position on MAXBAR+.

Please ensure to affix spare sub board sticker to MAXBAR+ & enclosure provided in New Energy Protection Kit.

Issue:

Instead of throwing out teeth covers, can they be reused on other busbars

Resolution:

Yes, they are the same MAXBAR & ResiMAX busbars - RMXPT120 (set of 20).
