FAQ: ONLITE local emCON
Can I operate an emergency lighting system remotely?
Yes, with the EMlink software and a network connection, you can easily set up remote access for your emergency lighting system. This enables you to efficiently monitor and control your emergency lighting systems remotely.
What if I need to use cables longer than 300 metres? Will the emCON controller still work?
The emCON controller supports three different DALI circuits. Each DALI circuit is limited to 300 metres by default, provided a minimum wiring cross-section of 1.5 mm² is used. If 300 metres is not sufficient for your project, the DALI circuit can be extended to a maximum of 600 metres using the ONLITE local EXTENDER (article number 22156830) for flexibility and reliability in larger installations.
What are the system boundaries for the emCON controller?
An emCON controller supports up to 192 luminaires, divided into three different DALI circuits (3 x 64 DALI emergency luminaires). For more extensive installations, use the emLINK software to connect up to 200 emCON controllers. This allows even complex and extensive emergency lighting systems to be managed and monitored centrally.
Can I use the emCON controller with DALI emergency luminaires from other manufacturers in a mixed installation?
No, to ensure uninterrupted and reliable operation, the emCON controller works exclusively with DALI emergency luminaires from the Zumtobel group brands Thorn and Zumtobel. This specification ensures that all components are optimally attuned to each other and that the highest safety standards are adhered to.
