DALI® Interface, DIN Rail Mount
The DIN-DLI is a DALI-2™ certified DALI® interface for Crestron control systems that provides control of one DALI loop.
Available Starting June 30th, 2025
The DIN-DLI is a DALI-2™ certified DALI® interface for Crestron control systems that provides control of one DALI loop. Housed in a 3M DIN-rail enclosure, the compact DIN-DLI is capable of controlling DT0, DT1, DT2, DT3, DT4, DT5, DT6, DT7, and DT8 (Tc)2 DALI devices. Crestron control system connection is provided through a Cresnet® wired or Ethernet with PoE connection. DALI devices can be commissioned through an intuitive web user interface. The DIN-DLI also offers unique features that improve the flexibility and performance of DALI® systems in ways that will help you to be successful with your DALI installation
One DALI Loop
The single DALI loop on the DIN‑DLI enables control of up to 64 individual DALI devices. With DALI's device level control, lighting loads powered from the same feed can be controlled individually. DALI allows layout changes without new circuit wiring, providing flexibility by allowing zone reconfiguration after a system is installed.
Integrated DALI Power Supply
The design of the DIN‑DLI eliminates the need for external power supplies required by other DALI controllers on the market. Power1 is delivered via PoE or Cresnet, creating a true single-wire installation. Both Cresnet and PoE are capable of powering the communications of all 64 DALI ballast controllers.
Override Input
Override input is provided to allow an external contact closure to momentarily override the control system program and set each channel output to its override preset level. Factory default override values on DALI devices can be adjusted through the DIN-DLI web user interface.
DIN Rail Installation
The 3M 2.08 in. (52.83 mm) wide DIN‑DLI snaps onto a standard DIN rail for installation in a wall mount enclosure. When installed in an enclosure utilizing 45 mm cutouts, the front panel stays accessible while the connections are concealed.
Module to Module Connectors
Module to Module connectors quickly connect Cresnet and Override between modules without the need for additional wiring or tools.
Cresnet® and PoE
The DIN‑DLI communicates with Crestron control systems via the Cresnet control network or Power-over-Ethernet (PoE). A pair of Cresnet ports and module to module connectors allow for easy daisy-chaining of several DIN Rail Series automation control modules. An RJ45 connector enables both data and power to be transmitted to the unit using a single CAT5 or higher cable.
NOTE: The DIN‑DLI is not compatible with Crestron 2‑Series control systems or earlier.
