    Could somebody here teach me what the good way to program short address of dali ballast when each dali bus with more than 60 units lamps online?
    when I use command"random address", there always some different units set to the same address. what commands progress to solve it?

    The maximum number of DALI devices that are allowed on a DALI network is 64. These can be assigned short-addresses 0-63.

    You say "more than 60 units lamps online". Are you saying that whenever you have 61-64 ballasts on a network, you are getting DALI units assigned the same short address?

    This forum is for C-Bus (which has 1 product that is a DALI gateway). You might find more experienced DALI experts on a DALI forum.

    so then don't use random addressing.

    use the manualy assign metode.
    by the way, what sofware you are using for configuration the dali?
