DALI-2 certification program: Phases

Phase 1: August 2017

► Part 101: System components  Enables DALI-2 certification of standalone bus power supplies ► Part 102: Control gear  ► Part 207: Control gear for LED modules Enables DALI-2 certification of LED drivers ► Part 103: Control devices Enables DALI-2 certification of single-master application controllers

Phase 2: August 2018

Major updates to the following test sequences: ► Part 101 ► Part 102 ► Part 103 The following product types are added to the DALI-2 certification program: Multi-master application controllers (previously, it was possible to certify single-masters only). Integrated bus power supplies, in control gear and control devices (previously it was possible to certify stand-alone bus power supplies).

Phase 3: May 2019

New test sequences adding the following input devices to the DALI-2 certification program: ► Part 301 – Push-button devices ► Part 302 – Absolute input devices e.g. switches, sliders ► Part 303 – Occupancy sensors ► Part 304 – Light sensors Updates to the following test sequences: ► Part 101 ► Part 102 ► Part 103

Phase 4: November/December 2019

New test sequences for D4i power and data specifications: ► Part 250 – Integrated Bus Power Supply ► Part 251 – Memory Bank 1 Extension (luminaire data) ► Part 252 – Energy Reporting ► Part 253 – Diagnostics & Maintenance ► Part 150 – AUX Power Supply (this is included in DALI-2 certification if the AUX supply is part of an LED driver, but stand-alone AUX power supplies are not currently certified).

Phase 5: February 2020

Tunable white colour control is added to the DALI-2 program: ► Part 209 – Colour control: colour type Tc (tunable white)

Phase 6: October 2020
