Minimize Line Voltage Wiring and Conduit
 An addressable control system reduces the amount of line voltage wiring on a project by 50-80% as
compared to a relay-based solution.
On-site Support
 Cooper Controls Technicians provide on-site support before, during and after the system is installed.
Ease of Installation
 All DALI devices including drivers, ballasts, relays, sensors and wallstations are connected to the
same 2-wire non-polarized communication bus.
Operational Flexibility
 Software flexibility allows for re-grouping, schedule changes and system parameters to be easily
re-configured without the need for re-wiring or climbing a ladder.
Operational Simplicity
 Once system is commissioned and set-up, Lighting Controls will work seamlessly with the tenant
schedules and occupancy patterns.

Open Source Communication Protocol
 DALI is the international standard open protocol for lighting controls and ensures that designers and
Engineers may use multiple suppliers and vendors for maximum design flexibility in hardware
components and service.
Maximize Design Time and Costs
 With an addressable system, line voltage wiring gets minimized as control shifts from circuit level
(Relays) to individual devices (addressable). This greatly simplifies the electrical design.
Maximize LEED Points
 DALI Lighting control system can maximize LEED credits from several categories including energy
optimization, measurement and verification and innovation.

Modular design and flexibility means improved space utilization and control
 Software flexibility allows for easy re-grouping and re-zoning of lighting system to adapt to changing
space needs and function.
Ballast/Tube fault detection and dispatch
 Ballast and Lamp failures identified immediately and monitoring report sent out immediately to
appropriate facility staff for attention.
Multi-building control simplifies management of multiple facilities
 Monitoring and Reporting of multiple facilities from a single point of access.
Higher Rent potential
 Tenant spaces with addressable and dimmable lighting controls often demand higher prices per
square foot and higher leasing potential.
