DMX512 vs DALI vs 0-10V: choosing the right control protocol

Published ·

Compare the three most common lighting control methods used in architectural and facade projects.

DMX512 delivers channel-level control and fast refresh for colour-changing and dynamic shows. DALI is the standard for tunable-white and dimmable architectural lighting with two-wire addressing. 0-10V is the simplest analogue dimming method, ideal for budget projects that only need smooth dimming without addressing.
