Zummesh Dynamic White/CCT

Version 12.1 by Mark Kohlmann on 2026/01/08 16:34
Warning

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/DIN-DLI if more capabilities are needed.
  • Supports up to 8 CCT channels, DALI Groups 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16 on the Zum app (0 based - 1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15 for ShowRunner/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
  • Loads must be manually changed to BusIndex 3 in the config or added from the UI with BusIndex 3.  Normally DALI loads are BusIndex 2.

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 showrunner/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

1Downlights, Main/Screen CCTF0Color
2Accent LightsF1aIntensity
3Accent Lights CCTF1aColor

9LinearF9Color
10Downlights @ ScreenF0Intensity

15--Color

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
