Zummesh Dynamic White/CCT

Last modified by Scott Kohlmann on 2023/04/21 14:09

Zum wireless supports dynamic white using DALI Groups 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16 (1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15 for console purposes).  Setup must be performed manually on the NETBRIDGE.  Once done, ShowRunner can use the CCT channels to provide CCT data to the fixtures.  Input from ShowRunnerCLC™ requires setting the scene recall for the CCT group to 255.  Any value of 0-254 will be sent to the CCT channel directly and the input from ShowRunnerCLC™ will be ignored.

Typical Setup for up to 6 zones, 5 fixture types:

DALI GroupNameFixture TypeControl Type
0Downlights, MainF0Intensity
1Downlights, Main/Screen CCTF0Color
2Accent LightsF1aIntensity
3Accent Lights CCTF1aColor
4Spot LightsF3Intensity
5Spot Lights CCTF3Color
6TroffersF4cIntensity
7Troffers CCTF4cColor
8LinearF9Intensity
9LinearF9Color
10Downlights @ ScreenF0Intensity
11--Color
12--Intensity
13--Color
14--Intensity
15--Color

Caveats:

  • Only intensity/CCT fixtures are supported.  This will not work with warm/cool fixtures.
  • NETBRIDGE must be attached to the ZUMMESH-JBOX-DALI.  Only 1 ZUMMESH-JBOX-DALI is supported per room.  Use Zum Wired or DIN-DALI-2 if more capabilities are needed.
  • Supports up to 8 CCT channels, DALI Groups 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16 (1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15 for console purposes)
  • Zum Scene must have the CCT channel set to 255 to accept input from ShowRunner.  Values of 0-254 will be sent directly to the group as fixed colors.
  • Setup must be done from the gateway console

Setup Steps:

  1. Address all DALI drivers attached to the JBOX.  This can be done via the gateway console or via the Zum app on iOS/Android.
    Command: rfrcon <NetbridgeID> DALIGLOBALADDRESS <Action>
    Action: 0=stop, 1=start, 3=get status
    Example (NETBRIDGE RF-ID 1A): rfrcon 1A DALIGLOBALADDRESS 1
  2. Create DALI Groups.  If group already exists then go to step 3. This must be done from the gateway console.
    Command: rfrcon <NetbridgeID> DALIGROUPADDDELETE <GroupID> <Operation> <GroupName>
    GroupID: 0 to 15
    Operation: 0=Delete Group, 1=Add Intensity Group, 3=Add Color Group
    GroupName: Name of the group, no spaces, 16 characters max
    Example (NETBRIDGE RF-ID 1A): rfrcon 1A DALIGROUPADDDELETE 8 3 TypeF1-Color
  3. Modify DALI Group to color, only needed if step 2 was not done.  If step 2 was performed skip this step.
    Command: rfrcon <NetbridgeID> DALIGROUPSETTWRITE <GroupID> 14 <GroupType>
    GroupID: 0 to 15
    GroupType: 0=Intensity, 1=Color
    Example: (NETBRIDGE RF-ID 1A): rfrcon 1A DALIGROUPSETTWRITE 8 14 1
  4. Set Scene settings for Color Support.  Enables or uses a fixed value for color temperature on color groups.
    Command: rfrcon <NetbridgeID> DALIGROUPCOMMAND 4 <GroupID> <SceneID> <SceneLevel> <Action> <FadeTime>
    GroupID: 0 to 15 (odd for color)
    SceneID: Scene number (1 to 16)
    SceneLevel: 255 for ShowRunner control, 0-254 for fixed scene level
    Action: 0=Remove Scene, 1=Add Scene
    FadeTime: Fade time in 1/10th of a second
    Example (NETBRIDGE RF-ID 1A): rfrcon 1A DALIGROUPCOMMAND 4 8 1 255 1 10
    Example (NETBRIDGE RF-ID 1A): rfrcon 1A DALIGROUPCOMMAND 4 15 1 255 1 10
