TranslateDALI Emergency Control Devices
In this section, there are four modes which allow users to switch the status of the emergency device and start the function test and duration test manually for all the DALI emergency devices on the network level.
Koolmesh also lists out all the DALI emergency devices by zone in this network which enable users to check the DALI emergency logs and device status and current status individually. Users also can schedule the self-test according to the application. And click the devices would like to set in the emergency list,see example below.
● Resume to normal mode: This button enables users to switch the inhibit mode or terminate the monthly test and annual test to normal mode,but if the emergency device is in the emergency mode, then users can not use this button to end the emergency mode.
● Enter inhibit mode:
Activated inhibit mode makes it possible to set the emergency mode to "inhibited"; in this mode, the power can be turned of without switching to emergency mode. Normally it is for maintenance purposes, if the maintenance and inspection is needed on site, users can use this function to prevent the luminaries from switching to emergency mode. Users can use this function to activate it immediately. The time for inhibit mode depends on third-party driver.
● Function test :
A quick test, usually between a few seconds and 1 min that simulates a mains failure and checks the operation of the emergency light source from the battery supply. This button enables the emergency battery switch to the function test immediately.
● Duration test:
A longer test for the rated duration, usually 1h to 3h. This duration test simulates a mains failure and checks that the battery will be able to operate the lamp for the full rated duration. The test fails if the battery discharges before the rated duration has been reached. The battery is required to be fully charged before a duration test can be started. This button enables the emergency battery switch to the duration test immediately (but only start immediately after full charge).
User can click the devices would like to set in the DALI emergency list, see example below. Koolmesh app will list out all the detail information about this DALI emergency device.
1.Emergency logs which enable user to check all the logs of this emergency device, including the result of function test and duration test, also the emergency fault. "
" enable user to make a remark and signature.
※ Click "" to make the remark, then the remark will be presented together with account and time right below the record. After finished the remark, the grey icon "" will become balck"
" .
All those records and remarks also will be presented in the Emergency report, users can review all these via login the web platform.
For the fault record, there are safeguard, rectifcation and confIrm available for diferent responsible person, the “confIrm” will only be available when the action and signature make by “safeguard” and “rectifcation”.
All those record and remark also will be prsented in the Emergency report, user can reveiw all these via login the web platform.
2.Extended emergency time which means main power is present but was recently off, so the lamp continues to be operated in the same way as in emergency mode for a period of time, or until the battery is discharged. The longest time can be 2H 7.5min. It is useful to extend the emergency time when the main power is resumed after sufering from a power failure. It can prevent sudden power failure happening again due to an unstable period which could cause the luminaries fickering.
3.Rated duration which user can change the time on the driver side, normally is 1H to 3H, please choose a suitable duration period according to the battery’s capacitance.
4.Maximum test delay which means if the system failed to start the test when it is come to test, then it can be delay for a certain time to continue the test, the max days could be delayed is 255 days.
5.Self-test scheduling which Koolmesh app will list out the schedule by month, user can set every month according to real application for “Function test”and “Duration test ”. Diferent function has diferent color, “Function test” is grey; “Duration test” is orange. User can select a certain date and hours for self-test.
※Every month can only carry out one scheduling function test or duration test, there is not possible to carry out scheduling function test and duration test at the same month.
※ During the function and duration test, if there is any emergency fault found, the system will send the emergency fault notifcation immediately. Users can check the details by refreshing “Emergency logs” or email (set the auto-notifcation in the web platform in advance).
※ After fnished all the test, users can check the result via refresh “Emergency logs”.
