Abstract
A lighting controlling apparatus including: a management server generating control information based on information received from a user; a digital addressable lighting interface (DALI) master that is connected to the management server via wired or wireless communication and generates a control message based on the control information; and a DALI ballast that is connected to the DALI master via DALI communication and drives a lighting apparatus by using the control message. Accordingly, a plurality of DALI masters may be locally or remotely controlled via the management server. Also, not only the DALI ballast may be controlled by using the DALI master via DALI communication but also, it may be selectively controlled in regard to the relationship between a DALI switch. In addition, the DALI ballast may be directly controlled by using a sensor and a remote controller.
