Short description

Shelly DALI Dimmer (the Device) is a gateway device between Shelly ecosystem and APIs and a DALI network of lights. It can control DALI capable light sources that contain DALI control gear.

In terms of DALI it is a single-master application controller, supporting LED control gear (Part 207), which does not share the bus with other DALI control devices. Shelly DALI Dimmer controls all connected DALI control gear as a single group with broadcast messages.

The Device contains a bus power supply with possibility to control up to X non-powered bus units.

The Shelly DALI Dimmer can be accessed, controlled, and monitored remotely from any place where the User has internet connectivity, as long as it is connected to a Wi-Fi router and the Internet.

It has an embedded Web Interface which can be used to monitor and control the Device, as well as adjust its settings.

Main features

• DALI application controller: Supports DALI bus control in a single-master configuration of direct or indirect DALI control gear lights.

• DALI features: Control light intensity of attached control gear (DT6). Color temperature control is not supported.

• DALI power on default: off

• DALI on bus failure: turn on at 100%

• Shelly Plus Add-on compatible: The Device supports connection with the sensor interface to the Shelly Plus devices.

• Switch/Button input mode: Allows flexible input control through switches or buttons.

• One/dual button dimming control: Allows to use the full functionalities of the Device for dimming control with any wall switch configuration.

• Night mode: Enables to set a specific brightness of input lights during nighttime.

• Min/Max brightness: Reframes the range of the dimming signal to get more precise brightness control on the output.

• Button fade rate: Controls how quickly the output brightness changes while holding the button(s).

• Transition duration: Controls the time for dimming from 0 to 100 %.

• Weekly schedules: Supports daily schedules and routines, including setting of brightness, transition duration, and flip value of the dimming signal.

• Auto on/off timers: Enables auto on/off timer setting.

• Local actions: Allows creating automation scenarios within the local Wi-Fi network, including setting of brightness, transition duration, and flip value of the dimming signal.

• Webhooks: Support automation through lightweight, event-driven communication with other devices.

• BLE Gateway: Facilitates communication between BLE and Wi-Fi-enabled devices.

• Wi-Fi Range Extender: Retransmits the Wi-Fi signal and extends its reach.

• Scripting: Allows creating automation scenarios through scripts.

• Compatibility: Highly compatible with 3rd Party home automation systems.

• KNX: Supports KNXnet/IPcommunication

• No need for hub: Ready for use locally or remotely via Shelly Smart Control or 3rd Party systems.

What are the differences between the different generations of Shelly products?

Each new generation adds more power, memory, and features:

Gen 1 offers basic control;

Gen 2 (Plus Series, Mini Series, Pro Series) adds Bluetooth, scripting, and better security;

Gen 3 improves performance, adds Matter (starting from firmware version 1.6.0 or newer) and advanced monitoring;

Gen 4 offers multi-protocol connectivity, featuring Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth, Zigbee, and Matter.

Can I control the device via Bluetooth?

No, the protocol is used only for device inclusion, allowing for quick and easy setup through the Shelly Smart Control app.

For bluetooth control it is required to have another Bluetooth device such as Shelly BLU Button or Shelly BLU Motion to interact.

Additionally, Shelly devices can function as a BLE gateway, bridging Shelly BLU devices to your Wi-Fi network.

Is it possible to use the device without a hub?

Yes, Shelly devices (except for Wave devices) operate independently without the need for a hub. They connect directly to your Wi-Fi network, and you can control them via the Shelly Smart Control app, web interface, or through integrations with platforms like Google Home, Alexa, Home Assistant and Samsung SmartThings.
