Philips functions

The Philips company has defined its own DALI commands for special discharge lamps. These commands extend beyond the possible DALI commands in accordance with the standard IEC 62386 Part 203. However, these commands are only usable for certain Philips control gears. Please contact Philips for a more detailed description of the commands.

Name	Description
FB_DALIV2PhilipsChangePAEC	Activates or deactivates the "Application Extended Command Set".
FB_DALIV2PhilipsQueryCtrlGearOperationTime	Reads the execution time of the control gear.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsQueryCtrlGearOvertempLevel	Reads the overtemperature threshold value of the control gear.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsQueryCtrlGearOvertempTime	Reads the overtemperature time of the control gear.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsQueryCtrlGearTemperature	Reads the temperature of the control gear.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsQueryFailureStatus	Reads the failure status.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsQueryHIDLampLevel	Reads the lamp status.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsQueryHIDMaxFadeDownRate	Reads the maximum fade down rate.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsQueryHIDMaxFadeUpRate	Reads the maximum fade up rate.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsQueryLampType	Reads the lamp type.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsQueryLampVoltage	Reads the lamp voltage.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsQueryMainsVoltage	Reads the mains voltage.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsQueryTimeout	Reads the time-out.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsQueryUICByte	Reads a byte of the UIC.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsSetDTRAsSegmentAddress	Saves the data contained in the Data Transfer Register (DTR) to the Segment Address Register.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsSetTestMode	Sets the control gear to test mode.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsStoreDTRAsLampType	Saves the data in the Data Transfer Register (DTR) as lamp type.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsStoreDTRAsOvertempLevel	Saves the data in the Data Transfer Register (DTR) as overtemperature threshold value.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsStoreDTRAsSegmentAddress	Saves the data in the Data Transfer Register (DTR) as Segment Address Register.
FB_DALIV2PhilipsStoreDTRAsTimeout	Saves the data in the Data Transfer Register (DTR) as time-out.

	These commands belong to the application extended commands for DALI discharge lamps. These only work if they are preceded by the Enable Device Type 2 command, which can be sent with the function block FB_DALIV2EnableDeviceType(). From version 2.6.0 of the libraries TcDALIV2 and TcDALIV2AppExtCmds, however, the Enable Device Type 2 command is internally placed automatically before all application extended commands for DALI discharge lamps.
