Enable central function lamp burn-in
object "Burn-in lamp/status"
Options:
The DLR/A has the possibility for activation of the function lamp burn-in for all connected DALI devices.
Note
Continuous dimming of lamps, which are not burnt in, can mean that the maximum defined brightness of
the lamp may not be achieved, and the required brightness value in the area may not be achievable.
In order to guarantee the maximum lamp life and correct function of the ballast in the dimmed state,
some lamps (vapor filled) must be operated for a certain number of hours at 100 % brightness during
initial operation, before they can be permanently dimmed.
Detailed information should be taken from the technical data of the lamps.

yes

no: The status of the burn-in state is not provided.

yes: via object "Burn-in lamp/status": The communication object Burn-in lamp is replaced by
the communication object Burn-in lamp/status. Using this communication object, burn-in of all
lighting groups is initiated (when they are parameterized for this function). At the same time,
burn-in is indicated by this communication object. The burn-in status is present when at least
one lighting group is in the burn-in state. The sending behavior of the status can be
parameterized using the following parameter:
Send
Options: after a change
after request
after a change or request

after a change: The status is sent via the communication object after a change.

after request: The status is sent after a request by the communication object Request
status values.

after a change or request: The status is sent via the KNX when the status changes or
the status is requested via the communication object Request status values.
