Description
3. Description
The DALI MSensor is a digital controller in the comfortDIM product range that can be used to control the control
gear of a DALI group collectively. The sensor combines three functions in one control device:
_ Constant light control
_ Presence-based control
_ Remote control
The DALI MSensor supports three modes for use in combination with a higher-level DALI master controller:
_ Direct master mode
_ Indirect master mode
_ Slave mode
I NOTICE
The following chapters deal with Direct master mode in detail and are only valid for this mode.
In chapter "Enhanced functionality" the other two modes are dealt with briefly.
The DALI MSensor is is available in four different housing designs:

Product manual DALI MSensor 5DPI 14 | 06-2017 | 1.1 | en
Installation
_ Open-plan offices
_ Training/presentation rooms
_ Corridors, passageways and garages
The DALI MSensor either controls all the units on the DALI circuit or a DALI group. The DALI MSensor is
Multi-master compatible, i.e. it can be used in conjunction with other DALI controllers in the comfortDIM product
range. This allows the DALI MSensor to be addressed and grouped in the same way as DALI control gear and
makes it easy to configure the system.The DALI MSensor is configured in the masterCONFIGURATOR software
(V2.12 or later).
4. Installation
The DALI MSensor is connected directly to the DALI circuit and does not require its own power supply. It can be
connected to the DALI circuit without bothering about polarity. Power is supplied via the DALI circuit. The sensor
draws 6 mA.
I NOTICE
A maximum of 12 DALI MSensors 02 can be operated on a single DALI circuit. If more sensors are connected,
the increased data traffic this causes has an adverse affect on the light control function.

Commissioning and Adaptions
5. Commissioning and settings
The DALI MSensor either controls all the devices on the DALI circuit or a DALI group. To enlarge the presence
detection area, it is possible to assign the same destination to several DALI MSensors . To achieve this, simply
assign the sensors to the same DALI group.
The DALI MSensor is configured in the masterCONFIGURATOR software (V2.12 or later). The DALI MSensor can
be assigned to a specific effective range. In addition, the parameters of the individual functions can be individually
adjusted.
I NOTICE
Luminaires must not belong to more than one DALI group! Otherwise the sensors will not interpret commands
sent to the luminaire correctly.
Unlike other DALI controllers, a DALI address is assigned to the DALI MSensor during addressing. This reduces
the total number of available DALI addresses. This must be taken into account when designing the DALI circuit!
Extending an existing DALI circuit
The DALI MSensor can be used in an existing DALI circuit together with MSensor 02, when a system is extended.
It is not possible to operate a DALI MSensor and a DALI MSensor (V1.7 or earlier) in the same DALI group.
Because of the modified grouping concept, there is no synchronisation of constant light control and presence
detection between the two equipment generations.
5.1. Group assignment by using masterCONFIGURATOR
The effective range of the DALI MSensor can be set in the masterCONFIGURATOR software (V2.12 or later).
5.2. Replacing a faulty DALI MSensor V2.0
It is possible to replace a faulty DALI MSensor V2.0
_ Make sure that the MSensor 5DPI_14 controls the same group like the MSensor 2.0
5.3. Replacing a faulty DALI MSensor (V1.7 or earlier)
It is only possible to replace a faulty DALI MSensor (V1.7 or earlier) by a DALI MSensor if specific preconditions are
met:
_ Make sure that there is no other DALI MSensor (V1.7 or earlier) in the DALI group in question!
_ Make sure that the faulty DALI MSensor (V1.7 or earlier) is not influenced by other DALI controllers (e.g. by
the fact that a DALI GC activates daylight-based control via the sensor group).
Further adaptation is required in the case other applications:

Functions
6. Functions
The DALI MSensor has the following functions and user interfaces:
_ Constant light control by means of ambient light sensor
_ Presence-based control by means of PIR motion sensor or presence detector
_ Remote control via an infrared input for different IR remote controls
6.1. Constant light control
6.1.1. Description
Constant light control makes it possible to match the lighting in a room to the naturally available ambient light. To do
this, the ambient light sensor monitors the illuminance in the room, compares it to the previously set brightness
setpoint and dims the light until the received illuminance matches the desired setpoint. If several DALI MSensors
are used in the same luminaire group, the light is dimmed until the light value is no longer less than the setpoint at
every sensor.
Where ambient light values are high, this can result in ambient light-based bright-out and bright-in. If the measured
illuminance exceeds a specified threshold value for a period of time that is longer than the specified delay time, the
luminaire group is switched off by the DALI MSensor. This also applies in cases where motion is detected in the
room. The luminaire group is switched on again as soon as the measured illuminance falls below the brightness
setpoint.
The Constant light control function ensures that the illuminance in the room remains constant and changes due to
variable amounts of ambient light in the room are compensated for. This produces greater comfort, illumination is
always properly adjusted, and it also saves energy.
Detection area of the ambient light sensor
The detection area of the sensor is sized so that a relatively large area, rather than just an individual location on the
task area, is covered and assessed. This ensures that objects being moved around cannot cause incorrect
measurements.

Constant light control
The diameter of the detection area depends on the detection angle of the sensor and the height at which it is
mounted.
Calculating the diameter:
x1 = tan(αx1) × h
x2 = tanα(x2) × h
y = tan(αy) × h
Typical example values of detection area:
Height h (m)

6.1.2. Operating modes
The ambient light sensor has three operating modes. Constant light control can be activated or deactivated.
Constant light control can also be deactivated temporarily.
Operating mode
Description
"enabled"
Light control of the luminaire group is activated by triggering the DALI MSensor.
"disabled"
The light control of the DALI MSensor is permanently deactivated. A fixed setpoint in the
luminaire group is invoked by triggering the DALI MSensor.
"temporarily disabled"
Light control can be temporarily deactivated by a manual intervention on another DALI
controller. Doing so temporarily switches off light control. The luminaires remain adjusted
to the corresponding setpoint. Light control is reactivated at the next switch-on or by an
activation command.
6.1.3. Commissioning
Setting operating modes
The individual operating modes can be set by using the masterCONFIGURATOR software (V2.12 or later) (see
Reference list).
Setting the brightness setpoint
The brightness setpoint is set by using one of the supported IR remote controls or masterCONFIGURATOR.

Constant light control
I NOTICE
The factory settings of the ambient light sensor are appropriate for normal conditions in a typical office room.
Factors such as the room height, type of furniture and nature of the floor can make it necessary to make
adjustments.
_ Check that ambient light control adjusts the lighting to desired levels.
_ In case of incorrect operation or unsatisfactory results: adjust the brightness setpoint.
I NOTICE
A suitable brightness setpoint is typically defined by using a lux meter to make a localised brightness
measurement. The results obtained may vary depending where the measurement is made and what the external
lighting conditions are.
_ Check ambient light control at various locations within the measuring area and under varying external
lighting conditions.
_ Make sure that the selected brightness setpoint takes into account varying conditions.
Procedure with IR SMART Controller / REMOTECONTROL IR6

Constant light control
6.1.4. Tricks and hints
Position the ambient light sensor correctly
Ambient light control is based on measuring reflected artificial light and daylight. This light must be detected
correctly and completely. Prevent measurements being falsified by other light sources. Positioning the ambient light
sensor correctly is crucial:
1. In order to be able to control ambient lighting properly, the sensor must be able to detect the light from the
controlled luminaires completely.
_ Position the sensor so that the sensor's detection area lies within the area that is lit by the controlled
luminaires.
2. If the sensor is directly exposed to other light sources, this falsifies the results obtained and the reflected artificial
light and daylight can no longer be detected correctly.
_ Position the sensor so that it is not directly exposed to other artificial light sources (e.g. free-standing
luminaires in the room).
_ Position the sensor so that it is not directly exposed to sunlight:
_ Make sure that the detection area of the sensor lies within the room.

Constant light control
_ Make sure that the detection area of the sensor lies within the room.
_ Make sure that the sensor is far enough away from any window area.
_ Make sure that any glare or sunlight reflected by shiny glass or metal surfaces cannot hit the sensor.
3. If more than one sensor is being used in a room it is possible that the detection areas of the sensors may overlap.
Overlapping detection areas may cause the different control circuits to affect one another and this may lead to false
results.
_ Position the sensors so that their detection areas do not overlap.

Presence control
6.2. Presence control
6.2.1. Description
Presence-based control makes it possible to link illuminance to the presence or absence of people. The light is
switched on as soon as a person enters a room. When the person leaves, the light is set to a predefined light value
after a certain time lapse. Presence-based control offers the benefits of saving energy as well as the convenience of
automatic lighting control.
I NOTICE
The presence-based control of the DALI MSensor reacts to moving thermal radiation from people. Other heat
sources (e.g. photocopiers, radiators, etc.) may have an adverse affect on presence-based control. Make sure
that there are no other heat sources in the immediate vicinity of the sensor.
Detection area of the motion sensor
The detection area of the motion sensor consists of a pattern of various measurement fields. The following
conditions must be met in order for an object to be detected reliably:
_ The object must move from one measurement field to another
_ The temperature of the object must be different from the background temperature
c

Product manual DALI MSensor 5DPI 14 | 06-2017 | 1.1 | en
Presence control
The diameter of the detection area depends on the detection angle of the sensor and the height at which it is
mounted. The mounting height also has an effect on the sensor's accuracy.
The position and mounting height produce two different detection areas:
_ Up to 2 m mounting height presence is detected and over 2 m motion is detected.
Calculating the diameter:
d = 2 × tan(0.5 × α) × h

I NOTICE
The recommended maximum room height is 3 m for office applications and 4 m for corridor applications.
For presence detection, it is vital that arm movements, etc. can be detected.Position the sensor on the ceiling so
that the room user's hands are located in the centre of the detection area and are not concealed by display
screens, backs, etc.
Distiction between presence detection and motion detection:
_ Presence detection detects objects with the size of a human hand that make a movement between 0,3-0,5
m.
_ Motion detection detects an object with the size of human head that make a movement between 0,5-0,7 m.
6.2.2. Operating modes
The motion sensor has four different operating modes.
Operating mode
Description
"enabled"
The light is switched on or off automatically in response to the presence of a person.
"enabled
(only OFF)"
The sensor switches off if there is no motion detected in the detection area, but does not
switch on again even if motion is detected. Switch-on must be obtained through a manual
switch-on command (e.g. using DALI RC). The manual switch-on command (e.g. scene
recall) must either be directed at the luminaire group or to all devices (broadcast) in order for
presence-based control to be activated. The DALI MSensor ignores switch-on commands
sent to other groups.
"disabled"
The motion sensor is deactivated. The light must be switched on and off manually.
"Never-Off"
After no motion has been detected and the delay time has elapsed, the sensor dims to a low
light value (absence value) but does not switch off.

Description
1
Fade-in time
The time needed to reach the presence value.
A
Presence value
The value that the luminaire group assumes while a person is present in the room.
2
run-on time
The time that starts to run after the last motion is detected in a room and after which, when
it elapses, the fade-down time is started. If another movement is detected in the room
during the delay time, the delay time is restarted.
3
Fade time
Time in which the lighting is faded down to the absence value.
4
Switch-off
delay
The time for which the absence value is maintained if no motion is detected.
B
Absence value
The value that the luminaire group assumes during the switch-off delay.
5
Fade-off time
The time needed to dim down from the absence value.
I NOTICE
If the motion sensor is switched off manually during operation, it is temporarily deactivated. The duration of
deactivation depends on the value of the "Dead time (manual OFF)" parameter. If the sensor detects motion
during the time lag, it restarts the time lag afresh. The motion sensor is reactivated when the time lag has
elapsed.

Parameter
Description
"Go to Presence value"
The "Motion detected" synchronisation command is interpreted in the same way as if
the actual sensor detected motion.
"Go to Absence value"
The "Motion detected" synchronisation command causes the DALI MSensor to maintain
the absence value. If the sensor is already at the absence value, it keeps resetting the
switch-off delay and remains at that value. If the sensor is in the "OFF" state, it switches
to the absence value. If the sensor is at the absence value, the synchronisation
command is ignored.
MASK
The DALI MSensor ignores the "Motion detected" synchronisation command of the
other group (factory setting).
I NOTICE
In the operating mode: "enabled (only OFF)", the DALI MSensor does not send synchronisation commands until
the sensor has been activated by a manual switch-on command.
In the operating mode: "enabled (only OFF)", the DALI MSensor does not respond to synchronisation commands

Special DALI settings
7. Special DALI settings
7.1. DALI concept
The behaviour of control devices is not currently described in the DALI standard. This is why the DALI MSensor
responds to some DALI commands in a special manner, as defined by Tridonic. This ensures that the DALI
MSensor can be optimally combined with other products in the comfortDIM product range.
_ Please pay attention to notes concerning DALI commands !
_ When used in combination with other manufacturers' controllers: please check compatibility!
The DALI MSensor is designed so that it can be combined with other DALI controllers. This is why the sensor
responds to some DALI commands in a different way than that specified in the official DALI standard. This ensures
that other DALI controllers, e.g. the DALI SC or x/e-touchPanel, can be used to affect light control.
Like DALI control gear, the DALI MSensor reacts to commands that are sent to it, i.e. commands sent to its DALI
address, DALI group (luminaire group), or to broadcast commands.
7.2. Reaction to DALI commands
The DALI MSensor sometimes distinguishes whether commands are sent to its DALI address or to its DALI group or
whether commands are broadcast commands. This chapter deals with the most important commands for
communicating with other controllers and confines itself to broadcast or group commands. A detailed overview of
supported DALI commands sent to a DALI address can be found in the annex.
7.2.1. Direct setpoint invocation (DALI "Direct Arc Power x" command)
In the case of direct setpoint invocation, a distinction must be made between setpoint commands greater than 0%
and setpoint commands equal to 0%. Setpoint commands greater than 0% act as a switch-on command. The
following behaviour applies for these:
c
31 / 48
Product manual DALI MSensor 5DPI 14 | 06-2017 | 1.1 | en
Special DALI settings
Constant light control
_ Setpoint is invoked, light control is temporarily disabled.
Presence control
_ In switched-off state:
presence detector is activated and changes to "Presence" state.
_ In switched-on state:
presence detector changes to "Presence" state, delay time is restarted.
7.2.2. Switch off (DALI "OFF" command or "Direct Arc Power 0")
In the case of direct setpoint invocation, a distinction must be made between setpoint commands greater than 0%
and setpoint commands equal to 0%. Setpoint commands equal to 0% act as a switch-off command. The specific
DALI "OFF" command also acts as a switch-off command. The following behaviour applies for both variants:
Constant light control
_ Luminaire group is switched off.
Presence control
_ Presence detector changes to "Time lag (manual OFF)" state.
7.2.3. Switch on at maximum value (DALI "Recall Max" command)
Constant light control
This behaviour can be adjusted in the masterCONFIGURATOR configuration software:
_ The maximum value of the control gear is invoked, light control is temporarily disabled or
_ The maximum value of the control gear is invoked, light control is activated.
Presence control
_ In switched-off state:
presence detector is activated and changes to "Presence" state.
_ In switched-on state:
presence detector changes to "Presence" state, delay time is restarted.

Special DALI settings
I NOTICE
Scene recalls are sent both to the DALI MSensor and to the ballasts of the luminaire group. This may result in
contradictory responses! To prevent this, proceed as follows:
_
In the ballast, select the "MASK" setting if one of the three "automatic", "off" or "MASK" settings has been
selected in the DALI MSensor.
_
If the MSensor is used in combination with an x/e-touchPANEL it is recommended to set the scenes with
the x/e-touchPANEL.
7.2.5. Dimming (DALI "Up" or "Down" command)
Constant light control
This behaviour can be adjusted in the masterCONFIGURATOR configuration software:
_ Luminaire group is dimmed, light control is temporarily deactivated or
_ Luminaire group is dimmed. The brightness value measured after dimming is accepted as the new temporary
brightness setpoint for constant light control. At the next switch-on, constant light control is reset to the
previously stored brightness setpoint.
Presence control
_ In switched-off state:
the presence detector ignores the command and remains in the "off" state.
_ In switched-on state:
the presence detector remains in its respective state, the motion sensor profile continues.
7.3. Implementation of DALI commands in other comfortDIM controllers
If the DALI MSensor is combined with other comfortDIM controllers in a DALI circuit, its behaviour can be influenced
by the above-mentioned DALI commands. The following matrix lists those commands that are output by a particular
device.

Enhanced functionality
8. Enhanced functionality
Besides Direct master mode, the DALI MSensor also supports two further modes for use in combination with a
higher-level DALI master controller:
_ Indirect master mode
_ Slave mode
Ex factory, the DALI MSensor is in direct master mode. The indirect master mode has to be activated over the
master controller itself. The slave mode can be activated over the master controller itself or by using the
masterCONFIGURATOR software.
I NOTICE
If used in conjunction with an external system note the following:
_ Make sure that the DALI MSensor is compatible with the external system!
_ Make sure that the producer of the external system has conferred the right to use the DALI MSensor in
conjunction with their own product!
8.1. Indirect master mode
In Indirect master mode, the DALI MSensor does not send any active control commands to the luminaires; it sends
the measured light value, presence detection status and remote control status to a higher-level master. The master
controller analyses this information and sends the corresponding control commands to the luminaires.
eDALI is used to communicate with the master. eDALI is Tridonic GmbH & Co KG's proprietary extension of the
DALI standard.
8.2. Slave mode
In Slave mode, the DALI MSensor do not send any active control commands to the luminaires; it has to be
interrogated by a higher-level control system (master).
As in Direct master mode, the DALI MSensor is given a DALI address during addressing. The brightness currently
measured by the sensor and the status of the presence detector can be interrogated via this DALI address by using
the "QUERY ACTUAL LEVEL" DALI request. A detailed listing and explanation of the supported DALI commands
can be found in the annex.
I NOTICE
The remote control is inoperative in Slave mode.
The rotary switch at the rear of the DALI MSensor is inoperative in Slave mode.

Compliance
10. Compliance
10.1. CE conformity
Tridonic declares that the DALI MSensor product complies with the relevant EC directives.
10.2. EMC standards
The compliance declaration for the ballast allows the manufacturer to assume that with the exception of radio
interference all the EMC requirements are met also for the luminaire. Radio interference is heavily dependent on the
design of the luminaire and the wiring so it has to be measured in conjunction with the luminaire.
The limit values for EMC are given in the following standards:
_ EN 55015 (Limit values and measuring procedures for radio interference)
_ EN 61547 (EMC requirements)
With the CE symbol on its products and with the compliance declaration, Tridonic confirms that its products
comply with EMC standards.

12.2.1. Additional explanations
DALI "RECALL MAX LEVEL" and "RECALL MIN LEVEL" commands
When the "RECALL MAX LEVEL" command is sent to the DALI address of the DALI MSensor , its internal LED
starts to flash. This makes it possible to identify the sensor in the system.The "Recall Min" function complements the
"Recall Max" function. When this command is broadcast or sent to the address of the DALI MSensor , the LED is no
longer lit.
DALI "QUERY ACTUAL LEVEL" command
This command can be used to query the currently measured brightness value and the status of presence detection.
The MSensor returns an 8-bit value.
This response is coded as follows:
Binary response
Presence value
Light sensor value
MLLL'LLLL
M (bit 7): Presence status
LLL'LLLL (bits 6…0): Brightness
1 = Motion detected 0 = No motion detected
Binary coded brightness

Brightness values in lx
I NOTICE
The brightness measured by the sensor depends on various factors such as room height, type of furniture and the
nature of the floor. The value measured at the sensor is only 20 to 40% of the actual brightness across the
measured surface area.
Example: A brightness value of 500 lx on a desk having a reflectance of 30% produces a measured brightness
value on the sensor of 150 lx.
The motion sensor bit contains information indicating that motion has taken place since the last query, i.e. the bit is
set in the event of motion and cleared again by the "QUERY ACTUAL LEVEL" query.
