Update for KNX DALI Gateways

News of 28 August 2025

DALI-2 sensors in KNX: An update makes it possible

DALI has become an indispensable lighting control system in the world of building automation and KNX. If you want to use the latest DALI 2 functions, the KNX-DALI L1 or L2 ind-gr-bc sec interfaces are the right choice.

A firmware update now makes it possible to use up to 32 DALI 2 sensors

  • as application controllers in the DALI system (multimaster)
  • as input devices in the KNX system (instance mode)

The following sensor types are supported: rotary/slide encoders, presence detectors, brightness sensors and push buttons (switching, dimming, blinds/shutters/awnings/windows, value encoders, scene extension).

Lots of potential for your current and future projects with KNX and DALI! We wish you every success with the dream team of KNX and DALI.

Legal guarantee

Harmonised EU legal guarantee notice

Minimum two-year legal guarantee protection for goods sold in the European Union.

Consumers can claim their rights under the legal guarantee of conformity, for example if goods:

  • do not match the description;
  • do not function as intended.

Sellers are liable for any lack of conformity which existed when the goods were delivered, and which becomes apparent within the legal guarantee period. Sellers in such a situation are required to offer:

  • free repair or free replacement;
  • in some cases, a price reduction or full reimbursement.

Some countries have a longer legal guarantee period. For second-hand goods, a shorter period may apply, but not less than one year.

What to do if you receive non-conforming goods:

  1. Contact the seller as soon as possible to report the issue;
  2. Provide proof of purchase, such as a receipt, invoice, or bank statement.

Sellers and producers may also offer commercial guarantees, which apply independently from the legal guarantee. For example, you may see this GARAN label representing a commercial guarantee of durability offered by the producer at no additional cost and covering the entire good.

For more information on your rights in a specific country, visit the page below or ask the seller. https://europa.eu/youreurope/guarantees
