SERVER GATEWAY

The DGM02 device converts information between multiple protocols in real time. It is able to acquire information from the ethernet network and from one or more buses (configured as reception buses), transmitting and converting them to the ethernet network
and the buses configured as transmission.
The 512 channels of the buffer are transmitted entirely on the DMX512A bus.
On the DALI bus the first 64 channels of the buffer are transmitted as 64 short addresses, or the first 16 channels as 16 group addresses, or 1 channel as broadcast, only to the nodes that change value.
It is also possible to control DALI DT4 / DT6 / DT8-RGBW / DT8-TW devices through specific Telnet commands.
The first 480 channels of the buffer are transmitted on the MODBUS RTU bus to 80 Modbus devices (ID 1..80) of 6 registers each.
Through any control unit that has an Ethernet connection it becomes possible to control a total of 512 levels of light intensity and to control different devices (DMX512A, DALI, MODBUS) without having to know in detail the operation of the relative protocols.

This command is used to query colour levels.
If the addressed device is of type DT8, the DGM responds with the current color levels / 6 bytes per device), otherwise it returns all data at 00. The request is enclosed by the tags: and .
The maximum size is fixed at 64.
If a node is not of type DT8, the colour codes are all set to zero (6 times 0x00).

R = red G = green B = blue W = white A = amber F = free color
SET COLOR TC LEVEL
This command is used to set the correlated color temperature (Tc). If the addressed device is a TW (Tunable White) type DT8, the DGM will set the correct Tc, based on the new value, otherwise the command has no effect. The command is enclosed by the tags:
