Answer
Noor,

It doesn't look like Dialux works with Autocad at all.  I haven't used the program but, from the website, it appears you use their software to create the lights you need.  Since Autocad is more of a 2D program, I don't think it will create the 3DS Solids you need to make a model using Dialux.

Sorry I can't be of more help,
