AL-DALI-DMX with Virtual DALI devices
In Virtual device mode - the Hue Emulator can be configured with 4 groups with up to 63 virtual DALI (DMX) addresses per group . These are virtual DALI devices on the DALI bus, which can be read by the AL-DALI-DMX device. This allows a mixture of physical and virtual devices.
The 63 Virtual DALI devices support these basic commands from the physical bus - they are no visible from the Hue emulator - only Non Empty Groups are registered as devices in the Hue App.
The Virtual devices respond to DALI bus commands.
a) ARC levels - to support feedback to the Hue App (Individual, Group, Broadcast)
b) Group Add/subtract

- 0 = off
- 5 = Max_Level
- 6 = Min_Level;

- 153 = return 8 if CCT, otherwise 6
- 160 = return ARC level
- 161 = return Max
- 162 = return Min
- 164 = return systemfail ( Sequential)
- 192 = return Groups 0-7
- 193 = return Groups 8-15
- 226 = save CCT Color
- 231 = Set CCT Color
- 257 = Load DTreg
- 268 = query Short Address = 255 if yes
- 272 = Enable CCT type 8
