Main Room (G1) Lighting
There are 18 DALI LED panels installed in early 2024.
A relay is connected to one of the lights on each of the two switches, to detect when the light switch is turned on.
New controller and PCB for 2025:
- Light switches connections:
- Black: GND
- Yellow: 11 (left switch)
- Blue: 12 (right switch)
