Installation Guide

Installing the Data Network

ADo NOT connect DALI or mains power to DyNet data terminals.

1. The data cable is connected to all devices as per the project

schematic following correct color code and DyNet terminations.

Devices may be wired in any order.

2. The recommended connection method is to ‘daisy chain’ devices in sequence, starting at the first device,

then looping in and out of each device, with a single cable terminating at the last device. There should

not be any branching, and only the first and last device should terminate a single cable, all other devices

should terminate two cables.

3. A data cable that is connected to an energized device is live. Do not cut or terminate live data cables.

4. The cable tail can be returned to the original distribution board. Ground wire and power wire (+V) can be

connected in a loop but D+ and D– must NOT be connected in a loop. Do not connect power wire (+V) in

a loop where segmentation is required between network sections that have multiple power supplies

deployed, to ensure Network cable current limits are not exceeded.

5. Maximum allowed power supply rating and data cable current for any section of the network is the

lowest of either 2 Amps or the Cable rating per local wiring code or cable manufacturer specification.

Where required, apply power wire (+V) segmentation per network design to prevent exceeding limits. Use

only approved DyNet power supplies to ensure network reliability and safety.

6. The data cable should be segregated from mains cables by a minimum of 50 mm (2 in) for shielded cable

and 300 mm (12 in) for unshielded cable or as per local wiring code specification (whichever is greater).

If the data cable crosses over any mains cables, it should cross at 90°, whilst maintaining correct

segregation. The wiring segregation distance may be reduced if either data cables, mains cables or both

are fitted in separate grounded metal conduits.

7. On Button Panels and Sensors, the Shield wires must be terminated into the shield terminal. Shield wires

are automatically earthed on each controller. For controllers that do not have a shield terminal, the shield

should be twisted together and taped to the cable sheath to maintain continuity.

8. The maximum recommended length for DyNet cables between two

network bridges is 800 m (2620 ft). For cable runs over 300 m (1000 ft),

(or baud rates over 9600 bps), 120 Ohm, 2 W end-of-line resistors must

be installed across the D+ and D- terminals of the DyNet connector

strip on the first and last devices.

Data Cable Termination

1. Strip off outer jackets of cables being daisy chained.

Shielded cables only: Cut foil or braid flush to outer jacket.

DO NOT cut drain (shield) wire.

2. Strip insulation from each of the conductors.

3. Bind the two cables around the end with electrical tape or

use a cable tie (see final drawing).

4. Separate the blue and the blue-white wires from each other.

Then combine them with the matching wires from the other

cable; blue to blue and blue-white to blue-white.

5. Twist remaining conductors ends with the matching colored

wires and fold ends in half. Isolate the unused pair with a

connector or tape.

6. Reuse a wire insulation offcut (or heat shrink tubing) and fit

over drain wire.

7. Terminate the wires on the pluggable screw terminal block.

(If used, shrink the heat-shrink tubing)

8. Label or tag the cable appropriately.

Recommended cable types

For serial port connections, the recommended cable is screened RS-485/Cat5e/6 data cable, such as

DyNet-STP-CABLE-LSZH.

Supplier Cable

Dynalite DyNet-STP-CABLE-LSZH

Dynalite

DyNet -SFLAT6-CABLE. Limited to 9600 bps. Maximum length 100 m (330 ft).

Belden

1502R or 1502P (P = plenum)

Belden

9503

Garland

MCP3S

We recommend maximum 300 m segments @ 9600bps for a spur with mixed topology. For long lengths up to

800 m and on trunks with up to 115 kbps speed, 120 Ohm, 2 W terminating resistors must be added on both ends

of the network (like in DMX512 case) and daisy chain is the only topology option.

Belden 1502 or equivalent, with low or no DC load on +V power wire, can achieve distances over 300 m (1000 ft).

CAT5e/6 has higher resistance, so we recommend 300 m (1000 ft) for those with 0.2 mm2(24 AWG) wires as a

conservative limit, provided GND and +V use a twisted pair in parallel as shown on drawings.

•Other STP CAT5/6 cable types may be used, provided their specifications meet or exceed Dynalite

specifications and local Wiring Code requirements.

•Use of UTP (unshielded) CAT5/6 cables is not recommended, however, may perform acceptably for short

runs of under 15 m (50 ft) where there is no risk of noise coupling.

UTP cables shall not be used in installations with capacitive sensing technology products (User Interfaces

with DACM), otherwise correct operation may not be achieved. UTP cables must be installed in grounded

metal conduits if there is a risk of noise coupling from Mains or UL Class 1 cables (switched power circuits,

high-frequency power electronics devices, HVAC, and motor drives, etc.).

If the installation conditions dictate use of UTP CAT5/6 cables (e.g., retrofit scenarios where existing

cabling is reused), it may require Proximity Sensing feature to be disabled on related products, with the

installer taking full responsibility for any related performance issues.

Number of devices on a single cable run

The Dynalite network uses a trunk and spur topology. Trunks can be RS-485 or Ethernet. Spurs are RS-485 only.

Each spur is connected to a network gateway that connects to the trunk network. If required, a spur can be

separated into network segments with network isolator devices (such as the DDNI485).

If >128 devices are needed on a spur, repeaters must be added (such as the DDNG485) to separate segments and

refresh the signal levels (and filter traffic where needed). The maximum number of devices of the same type in a

network segment is limited to 100.

Using multiple trunks and spurs with isolators and network repeaters, removes any realistic limitation on a single

Dynalite network.

Other control cable types

There are two types of data cable commonly used to connect to electronic lamp drivers (ballasts).

1-10V cabling

1-10V uses mains rated polarized cabling; typically, a single pair “figure-8” cable. Positive wire may have a dashed

line.

DDBC, DBC, DMB, DDMC, DMC controllers and DGBM, DMD modules provide 1-10 V control and automatically

sink or source current depending on the connected driver. The DDBC1200 controller can provide 0-10 V or 1-10 V

dimming in sinking and sourcing mode.

Typical considerations when installing a 1-10 V circuit:

•Loads must not use a mixture of sinking and sourcing drivers.

•An analogue circuit can typically accommodate around 10 luminaires per controller. The maximum

number of drivers allowed on an analogue output depends on controller specifications such as, box

loading, channel loading and circuit characteristics. Check the controller/module specification sheet for

detailed information.

•0/1-10 V control signal is polarity sensitive. Positive and negative outputs from the controller must be

connected to the corresponding positive and negative inputs on the driver. The circuit will not work if

wires are reversed.

•If the control signal is not connected or a wire is broken, the driver shall go to the maximum value or the

system failure level, if applicable, to keep the lights on.

•If 0/1-10 V wiring is run in parallel with AC wiring, for improved noise immunity, it is recommended to use

shielded cabling with the shield grounded to Earth at the controller. Unshielded analog control wiring can

act as antennae, which may be interpreted by the driver as changes in the control voltage resulting in a

flicker effect.

•As 0/1-10 V is an analogue protocol, the signal can suffer from voltage drop over a long cable run >30 m

(100 feet), directly impacting the light intensity. Therefore, stranded wire should be used with a cross

sectional area of at least 0.82 mm2(18 AWG) and the cable run should be less than [90 m] (300 feet).

DALI Cabling

DALI and DSI use mains rated non-polarized cabling; typically, a single pair “figure-8” cable or more often

combined with lighting gear supply cabling, DALI has free wiring topology (daisy-chain, star or combined) but ring

shaped connections should be avoided. No termination resistor is required.

ASafety warning: DALI is not touch-safe and shall be treated as FELV (functional isolation only, not

Safety) per IEC Classification. DALI could be at a mains potential (LIVE), because only basic isolation is

provided. The DALI control cable must be handled as any other LIVE mains cable, potentially up to 230

VAC. This must be considered when installing DALI devices such as DALI Sensors and Dry Contact

Interfaces on the DALI bus.

DALI voltage range: 12-21 VDC, nominal 14-16 V. Maximum combined DALI Power Supply current rating (nominal

and short circuit): 250 mA per Universe or Galaxy (output).

Maximum bus length from any point to the DALI controller should not exceed 300 m (1000 ft), with max. 2.5 mm2

(12 AWG) wires, to ensure signal integrity is not adversely impacted by cable inductance and capacitive loading

(providing they are not dedicated comms cables with controlled impedance).

Smaller gauge wires are allowed providing the resistance limit of 4 Ohms (end-to-end wire loop resistance) is not

exceeded.

ETo extend a DALI lighting zone beyond the standard-length limits, a DyNet network of multiple DALI

controllers is often used, enabling combined install lengths of > 800 m.

Installing load controllers

ASafety warning:The control equipment is connected to potentially lethal power supplies. To ensure

safety during system maintenance, Installers must always follow safety installation rules and isolation

procedures as per the applicable Electrical Code.

1. When deciding on the mounting position, controllers must be mounted in a dry, well-ventilated location.

Consider that controllers may emit some mechanical noise.

2. Observe recommended spacing around controllers.

3. Ensure suitable circuit overload and safety protection is installed and labelled.

4. DIN rail controllers must be mounted horizontally (unless otherwise stated in the design) in a Standard

Electrical Enclosure.

5. Wall mounted controllers must be mounted vertically (unless otherwise stated in the design) following

ventilation guidelines.

6. Power and data wires should be segregated as per standard practice. Terminate according to the

installation instructions in compliance with the applicable Electrical Code.

7. Mains controlled loads must be correctly installed and connected to the load controller output terminals.

8. Individual and total channel loading must be within the specified ratings limits for each type of load.

9. PWM controllers require a suitable DC power supply. All other load controllers are connected to mains

supply.

10. Auxiliary/UL924 input is a programmable dry contact interface that is active low. A dry contact input is

connected between the AUX/UL924 and GND terminals on the DyNet connector strip. Ensure that the

cable length between the dry contact and terminal strip is no longer than 20 m (65 ft). DyNet and Dry

contact wiring must meet SELV installation and insulation requirements as per applicable Electrical Code.

DyNet RS-485 Serial Connector with Auxiliary terminal

11. DALI Controllers:

a. If DALI is not included with mains cable, or bundled with fixture, then run a two core DALI bus

cable to the fixtures. This cable is in addition to the mains feed.

b. DALI must have no more than 64 drivers per universe.

(Recommend approximately 50 drivers per universe to allow for expansion).

c. From 2022, the DDBC320-DALI joins the DDBC120-DALI in supporting a limited number of

Dynalite user interface/sensor devices on each universe. For more information, refer to the DALI

Multimaster device and driver table (on previous page), and specification sheets.

d. DALI Controllers have an inbuilt DALI power supply. No external additional third-party DALI

power supplies are allowed to be connected.
