Two wiring pairs are always present on each RAIL model:
- the RED/BLACK pair is dedicated to powering the LED strips
- the BLUE/BROWN pair carries the audio signal

LIGHTING
- the WHITE wires are provided for DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) control protocol (only for DALI equipped models)
LIGHTING
RAIL are provided with WAGO terminal block on both side, so to connect RAIL in cascade (max 5 units can be connected together)it’s necessary to seal one by one each wirings:
- Power wirings
- Audio wirings
- DALI wirings
No more than 5 units can be connected in cascade. No more than 3 units RGBW can be connected in cascade. The suggested power supply unit is a 24 ±1,0% VDC Constant Voltage.

PSU 24 VDC Constant Voltage
RAIL must be connected to a 24Vdc constant voltage Power Supply, with the correct output wattage to power the RAIL line.
Regardless of the power supply output capability for lighting, up to 5 RAIL units only can be connected in a cascade or 3 RAIL RGBW units only can be connected in a cascade.
PSU are not included in the package so the installer needs to verify the compliance of the driver with the RAIL fixture.
DALI connection
There are also DALI ready RAIL.
RAIL has the DALI controller inside the body and the different channels are already distributed.
DALI ready RAIL should be addressed before the installation, according to the client’s and space necessity.
A DALI network allows to connect and control up to 64 devices. The devices could be controlled by a PWM dimming controller. The PWM Dimming Controller shall be compatible with 24 VDC Constant Voltage, 10 Amin LED light application.
In addition to the standard wirings, it’s necessary to use the BUS DALI wires for the communication of all the devices with the DALI network.
The wiring gauge depends on the distance between the RAIL fixture and the driver position.
The gauge needs to be verified by the installer properly.
