1. Overview
The Device Configuration App(hereinafter DCA) is an ETS plugin for configuring DALI gateways. Embedded within the DALI gateway application, it streamlines addressing, commissioning, configuration, upgrades, and monitoring of failure information on the DALI bus.
This manual provides an overview of the DCA’s framework, functions, and operational procedures.
1.1. Functions
DCA is able to assign and modify the address of the DALI driver, and map the ECG in the ETS to the DALI driver. It can also configure driver control and parameter, group, sensor, scene, etc., to the DALI driver.
The DCA allows users to assign and modify DALI driver addresses and map the ECGs in ETS to the corresponding DALI drivers. It also supports driver control, parameter configuration, group assignments, sensor setup, and scene management for DALI drivers.
DCA Key Functions:
Import/Export configuration
Initialize the DALI bus & assign address to DALI driver
Query driver status on the DALI bus & read DALI driver configurations
Adjust driver addresses with programmed addresses & modify the association of the ECG with the driver address
Read or modify driver parameters
Control DALI drivers on both channels via unicast, multicast, or broadcast, supporting switching, dimming, color temperature, and color adjustments
Assign drivers to groups and specify associated groups
Configure DALI scenes, assigning scenes to drivers and setting scene brightness, color temperature, and color
Edit and test global scenes
Integrate sensors, associating up to 8 KNX sensor channels and modifying sensor addresses
Upgrade the DALI software on the gateway
1.2. DCA Download and Installation
The DCA .etsapp file can be obtained from the manufacturer or the myKNX account store.
1.2.1. Download DCA

NOTE:
This feature requires a licensed ETS version with an ETS dongle installed. Supported versions include ETS5 Lite, ETS5 Supplementary, ETS5 Professional, ETS6 Lite, ETS6 Professional, or higher.
If an older version of the app is installed, delete it first, then restart ETS5 before adding the new version.
In ETS5
Open ETS5 and click Add App in the lower-right corner.
In ETS6
Open ETS6 and go to Settings > ETS Apps > Install App from file.
Once installed, the DCA menu will appear in the database editing interface of your DALI gateway project. Click it to open the DCA configuration interface.
1.3. Operation Steps
This chapter describes the operation flow and precautions for commissioning the DALI bus using DCA. The following steps apply to newly installed or updated projects:
(1) Ensure ETS is a licensed version with the ETS dongle installed and that the DCA .etsapp file is correctly installed.
(2) Short-press the Test/Set button to trigger broadcast switch control and verify that all DALI devices are properly connected.
(3) Set device parameters in ETS and download them to the gateway..
NOTE:
ECG devices in ETS are by default matched to driver addresses on the DALI bus. Associations can be modified via DCA.
DCA uses point-to-point communication and shares a bus interface with device commissioning. When downloading databases or diagnosing devices, disconnect DCA first to avoid errors such as “Download(Appl.) failure” or “Device exists, but failed to connect” (see Fig. 1.3(1) and Fig. 1.3(2)).
Fig.1.3(1) Download(Appl.) failure Fig.1.3(2)Device exists,but failed to connect
(4) Open the DCA editing interface, select the commission channel and read the device status.
(5) In initialization, click “[All] init DALI device” or “[No Addr] init DALI device” to assign unique addresses to all drivers on the DALI bus.
(6) Sync DALI bus and obtain the DALI driver list: Use DCA to read the status of all drivers.
(7) Obtain the ECG list: Click “Synchronize ETS data” to obtain the list of ECGs configured in ETS.
NOTE:
If no database source file is available, click “Sync. Gateway” to read the ECG and DALI driver lists cached by the gateway.
(8) Modify ECG-to-driver association and download it to the gateway.
Methods:
Drag the grid to associate the ECG to the specified driver address.
Right-click a device in the grid and select “Modify Address”.
NOTE:
The ECG type must be the same as the driver type at the corresponding address; otherwise, DCA will report an error.
(9) Configure driver parameters: Double-click a device in the grid to open the driver detail page and modify parameters such as device settings and scene configuration.
NOTE:
Changes take effect only after being loaded on the configuration page.
(10) Click “Sync. Gateway” to read the data in the gateway and verify that all information is correct.
NOTE:
If the above steps are not followed, DALI devices may not operate according to preset brightness values.
During address assignment, if some addresses are incomplete, start initialization without address assignment in DCA.
If allocation fails more than twice, perform a full DALI bus initialization using DCA or by long-pressing the Test/Set button on the DALI gateway for more than 5 seconds. This may change assigned addresses. Afterward, verify that ECG types match actual driver types to ensure full functionality.
(11) Export configuration, and save the gateway configuration after completing all settings.
2. DCA Interface
2.1. Main Interface
Open the device database, then click DCA in the database edit menu to access the DCA main interface (initial interface) as shown in Fig. 2.1.

① Switch Configuration Interface: Switch between interfaces for Device, Group, Sensor, Global Scene, Fault Diagnosis, and Upgrade. See Sections 2.2–2.7 for details.
② Connect DALI Bus: Select a channel and connect to the gateway.
NOTE:
The gateway must have a physical address assigned before it can connect.
When reconnecting the gateway, ETS data is automatically synchronized (e.g., switching from disconnected to connected state or switching between A/B channels).
③ Terminate Operation: Click Termination to stop operations on the DALI gateway. For example, terminating while reading driver status will end the DCA configuration or reading process. Terminating during bus initialization may cause the initialization to fail.
NOTE:
If the DALI bus is busy or has a large amount of data, you may terminate the operation. Commands already executed or data already sent are unaffected; only unexecuted telegrams will stop.
④ Export: After configuring a DALI gateway, export and save the configuration.
NOTE:
The configuration of A/B channel needs to be exported separately. The export file includes: Device Configuration, Scene Configuratin and Sensor Configuration.
⑤ Language Switch: Click to toggle the interface language between Chinese and English.
⑥ Initialization: Click to select “[All] init DALI device” or “[No Addr] init DALI device”.
[All] init DALI device: Initialize all drivers. Assign DALI addresses to all DALI driver on the current channel. Suitable for first-time setup.
NOTE:
This operation randomly reassigns driver addresses, which may disrupt ECG-to-driver associations. Use with caution.
[No Addr] init DALI device: Initialize only drivers without addresses, leaving existing addresses unchanged. Suitable for new or replacement drivers.
NOTE:
If address assignment is incomplete, use “[No Addr] init DALI device”. If it fails more than twice, use “[All] init DALI device”.
⑦ Sync ETS Data: Synchronize ETS device configurations to DCA.
⑧ Sync DALI Bus: Click to read the driver list directly from the DALI bus.
NOTE:
If there is a driver address conflict on the DALI bus, the DCA will report an error. You can flash the conflicting driver or delete its address. It is recommended to reinitialize the bus to reassign addresses.
⑨ Sync Gateway: Read the saved data on the gateway, including ETS and DCA configuration information. If any information is missing, the data will appear empty. Clicking this option will display the following prompt.
NOTE:
Before performing the “Sync Gateway” operation, ensure that Download Database and Download DCA Configuration have been completed. If the gateway has not received a configuration previously downloaded by DCA, it will report the default configuration, which may not reflect the actual setup.
⑩ Read Assigned Device: In the driver list, select one or more DALI driver addresses and click "Read Assigned Device" to retrieve the driver information from the gateway cache and display it in the software in real time.
⑪ Control Testing: Click to send DALI control commands to the current channel’s bus, including switch, brightness, color temperature, and color adjustments, to test the connected drivers. Control can be performed in broadcast, group, or individual modes.
Broadcast: Send the same command to all DALI drivers.
Group Control: Group multiple DALI drivers together and control all the drivers in the same group simultaneously through group address (Group 1~Group 16).
Driver control: Controls a specific driver by address (A0–A63).
⑫ Load Associated Status: Click to send the ECG, driver address and its associations to the gateway.
NOTE:
If the DCA has not previously read or configured the driver parameters, they will not be sent by default. After loading, re-read via Sync Gateway if needed.
