FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 62386-210 has been prepared by subcommittee 34C: Auxiliaries for lamps, of IEC technical committee 34: Lamps and related equipment. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: CDV Report on voting 34C/915/CDV 34C/938/RVC
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. SIST EN 62386-210:2011

INTRODUCTION This first edition of IEC 62386-210 is published in conjunction with IEC 62386-101 and IEC 62386-102. The division of IEC 62386 into separately published parts provides for ease of future amendments and revisions. Additional requirements will be added as and when a need for them is recognised. This International Standard, and the other parts that make up the IEC 62386-200 series, in referring to any of the clauses of IEC 62386-101 or IEC 62386-102, specifies the extent to which such a clause is applicable and the order in which the tests are to be performed. The parts also include additional requirements, as necessary. All parts that make up the IEC 62386-200 series are self-contained and therefore do not include references to each other. Where the requirements of any of the clauses of IEC 62386-101 or IEC 62386-102 are referred to in this International Standard by the sentence "The requirements of IEC 62386-1XX, clause ‘n’ apply”, this sentence is to be interpreted as meaning that all requirements of the clause in question of Part 101 or Part 102 apply, except any which are inapplicable to the specific type of lamp control gear covered by Part 210. All numbers used in this International Standard are decimal numbers unless otherwise noted. Hexadecimal numbers are given in the format 0xVV, where VV is the value. Binary numbers are given in the format XXXXXXXXb or in the format XXXX XXXX, where X is 0 or 1; 'x' in binary numbers means 'don't care'.

NOTE For this purpose, a register may be one of the scenes 0 to 15 or the POWER ON LEVEL or the SYSTEM FAILURE LEVEL. 4 General description The requirements of Clause 4 of IEC 62386-101:2009 and Clause 4 of IEC 62386-102:2009 shall apply. 5 Electrical specifications The requirements of Clause 5 of IEC 62386-101:2009 and Clause 5 of IEC 62386-102:2009 shall apply. 6 Interface power supply The requirements of Clause 6 of IEC 62386-101:2009 and Clause 6 of IEC 62386-102:2009 shall apply, if a power supply is integrated with the gear. 7 Transmission protocol structure The requirements of Clause 7 of IEC 62386-101:2009 and Clause 7 of IEC 62386-102:2009 shall apply. 8 Timing The requirements of Clause 8 of IEC 62386-101:2009 and Clause 8 of IEC 62386-102:2009 shall apply. 9 Method of operation The requirements of Clause 9 of IEC 62386-101:2009 and Clause 9 of IEC 62386-102:2009 shall apply with the following exceptions: Amendments to Clause 9 of IEC 62386-102:2009: Replacement:
9.2 Power-on Control gear shall start to react properly to commands not later than 0,5 s after power-on. If no command affecting power level is received before 0,6 s after mains power-on, the gear shall proceed as follows: If the pointer control register CONTROL 253 contains 0, the control gear shall go to POWER ON LEVEL immediately without fading, unless 'MASK' is stored as the POWER ON LEVEL, in which case the control gear shall go to the most recent arc power level or start the most recent sequence at its starting point. If the pointer control register CONTROL 253 contains a value other than 0, then the contents of the POWER ON LEVEL shall be used as pointer to the starting point of a sequence. If the Pointer Control Register CONTROL 253 contains 'MASK', the control gear shall run through the sequence until stopped by command. Otherwise, the number of times the gear runs through the sequence shall be given by the contents of CONTROL 253. SIST EN 62386-210:2011

– 10 – 62386-210 © IEC:2011
Clearly, there shall be an interval of at least 0,1 s during which it shall be possible for a control device to send an arc power control command which shall be obeyed immediately, thereby preventing the gear from processing the POWER-ON LEVEL as described. NOTE 1 Different manufacturers’ control gear may react in different ways to relative arc power commands (such as STEP DOWN) during the 0,1 s period mentioned above. NOTE 2 Some control gear may have a preheating or ignition phase (see 9.7 of IEC 62386-102:2009). NOTE 3 Different manufacturers' control gear may restore either the most recent actual arc power level or the most recent target arc power level if 'MASK' is stored as POWER-ON LEVEL. 9.3 Interface-failure If the interface idle voltage remains below the specified receiver high level range (see IEC 62386-101:2009, Clause 5) for more than 500 ms, the control gear shall proceed as follows: If the pointer control register CONTROL 254 contains 0, the control gear shall go to SYSTEM FAILURE LEVEL immediately without fading, unless 'MASK' is stored as the SYSTEM FAILURE LEVEL, in which case the control gear shall stay in the state it is in (no change of the arc power level, no switching on or off). If the pointer control register CONTROL 254 contains a value other than 0, then the contents of the SYSTEM FAILURE LEVEL shall be used as pointer to the starting point of a sequence. If the pointer control register CONTROL 254 contains 'MASK', the control gear shall run through the sequence until stopped by command. Otherwise, the number of times the gear runs through the sequence shall be given by the contents of CONTROL 254. On restoration of the idle voltage the control gear shall not change its state. Addition: 9.9 Multi-channel device A sequencer based on this standard shall be able to support up to 8 output channels. Which channels are supported can be queried by command 243 'QUERY SUPPORTED CHANNELS'. Any direct or indirect arc power control command defined in Part 102 shall influence the arc power level of the selected channels For configuration of the sequencer, the different channels shall be selected by command 230 'STORE DTR AS CHANNEL SELECTION'. Each bit of the byte CHANNEL SELECTION shall correspond to one output channel: bit 0 channel 0 selected ‘0’ = No bit 1 channel 1 selected ‘0’ = No bit 2 channel 2 selected ‘0’ = No bit 3 channel 3 selected ‘0’ = No bit 4 channel 4 selected ‘0’ = No bit 5 channel 5 selected ‘0’ = No bit 6 channel 6 selected ‘0’ = No bit 7 channel 7 selected ‘0’ = No The CHANNEL SELECTION shall not influence the recall of already stored points.

The following notation is used to refer to a particular point for a particular channel: Point (point number; channel number) 9.10 Sequencer operation 9.10.1 General Two operating modes shall be supported: · externally driven sequencer mode; · automatic sequencer mode. 9.10.2 Externally driven sequencer mode In this mode, a control device may use the commands 232 'Go To Point N', 233 'Go To Next Point' and 234 'Go To Previous Point' to control the sequence. The arc power level shall be set to the value stored for the recalled point N using the programmed Sequencer Fade Time of the point N. 9.10.3 Automatic sequencer mode 9.10.3.1 Sequencer programming For each point of the sequencer, the following values shall be stored: a hold time, a sequencer fade time and up to eight arc power levels, one for each channel. For Point 0 to Point 15, which are identical to Scene 0 to Scene 15, for Point 253 (Power-On) and for Point 254 (System Failure) an additional pointer control register shall be stored.
Table 1 gives an overview of the stored variables and the value of the DTR2 used to access the variables. Table 1 – Access to the sequencer variables DTR 2 value Channel Sequencer fade time Hold time Pointer control register

NOTE Care has to be taken when programming pointers to avoid infinite loops without any change of light output. 9.10.3.2 Sequence programming example The automatic sequencer mode is explained by means of the following example. It shall be possible to store more than one sequence in the memory of the control gear. 'MASK' (255) stored in point (N;0) shall specify the point (N-1) as the end point of a sequence. Point N separates the different sequences from each other. Table 2 shows a programming example. Table 2 – Sequencer programming example

Starting a sequence at any point between Point 0 and Point A shall cause the sequencer to run sequence 1 beginning at the specified starting point. After Point A, the sequence shall always continue at Point 0. Selecting Point (A+1) as starting point shall cause the sequencer to start at point 0. Starting a sequence at any point between Point (A+2) and Point B shall cause the sequencer to run sequence 2 beginning at the specified starting point. After Point B, the sequence shall always continue at Point (A+2). Selecting Point (B+1) as starting point shall cause the sequencer to start at point (A+2). Figure 1 shows a timing example for an automatic sequence. SIST EN 62386-210:2011

After step b), the control gear shall set the actual level to the level stored for the selected point N using the programmed sequencer fade time of the point N. The actual level shall then remain constant at the programmed value of point N for the configured hold time of point N. After that the sequencer shall operate as described in 9.10.3.1. 9.10.3.3.2 Starting with pointer
On power-up, on interface failure, or on scene recall, the control gear shall check the contents of the appropriate pointer control register. If the pointer control register checked contains 0, the gear shall go to the stored arc power level as requested, i.e. POWER ON LEVEL, SYSTEM FAILURE LEVEL or SCENE X. If the pointer control register checked contains a value other than 0, then the contents of the POWER ON LEVEL, SYSTEM FAILURE LEVEL or SCENE X shall be used as pointer to the starting point of a sequence. If the pointer control register contains 'MASK', the control gear shall run through the sequence until stopped by command. Otherwise, the number of times the gear runs through the sequence shall be given by the contents of the pointer control register. If a pointer points to a non-existent point it shall be ignored and no sequence shall be started. 9.10.3.4 Stopping the automatic sequencer A running automatic sequence shall be stopped on any of the following events: · the starting of an automatic sequence via pointer; · the starting of an automatic sequence by command 235 'START AT POINT N'; IEC

11 Definition of commands
The requirements of Clause 11 of IEC 62386-101:2009 and Clause 11 of IEC 62386-102:2009 shall apply with the following exceptions: Amendments to Clause 11 of IEC 62386-102:2009: 11.1. Arc power control commands 11.1.1 Direct arc power control command Replacement:
Command –: YAAA AAA0 XXXX XXXX "DIRECT ARC POWER CONTROL" Set the actual arc power level to the value given by the command byte using the actual fade time. During fading, bit 4 of the status register shall indicate “fade is running”. Direct control commands outside the "MAX LEVEL" to "MIN LEVEL" range shall result in setting the arc power level to the respective MAX and MIN LEVEL. The arc power levels "0" (OFF) and "255" (MASK) shall not be affected by the MIN and MAX LEVEL settings. "255" (MASK) means "STOP FADING"; this value shall subsequently be ignored and therefore not stored in memory. If "MASK" is received during preheating the control gear shall remain switched off. If "MASK" is received during automatic sequencer operation the sequence shall be stopped immediately. The channels of a multi channel control gear shall not be set to the same arc power level on receipt of "MASK". A received arc power level of “0” or “MASK” shall not have any visible effect on a lamp which is switched off. If the control gear is a multi channel device, only the selected channels shall be affected by direct control commands. 11.1.2 Indirect arc power control commands Amendment: Commands 16 – 31:
YAAA AAA1 0001 XXXX
"GO TO SCENE" If the appropriate pointer control register CONTROL XXXX contains 0, the control gear shall set the actual arc power level to the value stored for Scene XXXX using the actual fade time, unless 'MASK' is stored as the Scene XXXX, in which case the arc power level shall remain unchanged. If the appropriate pointer control register CONTROL XXXX contains a value other than 0, then the contents of the Scene XXXX shall be used as pointer to the starting point of a sequence. If the appropriate pointer control register CONTROL XXXX contains 'MASK', the control gear shall run through the sequence until stopped by command. Otherwise, the number of times the gear runs through the sequence shall be given by the contents of CONTROL XXXX. During fading, bit 4 of the status register shall indicate a “fade is running”. 11.2 Configuration commands Amendment: SIST EN 62386-210:2011

11.2.1 General configuration commands Command 32: YAAA AAA1 0010 0000
"RESET" After the second reception of the command, the variables in the memory (see Clause 10) shall be changed to their reset values. There is no requirement for commands to be received properly within the next 300 ms. In addition, all pointer control registers CONTROL N shall be set to 0. 11.3 Query commands Amendments: 11.3.1 Queries related to status information Command 153: YAAA AAA1 1001 1001 "QUERY DEVICE TYPE" Answer shall be 9. 11.3.2 Queries related to arc power parameter settings
Command 160: YAAA AAA1 1010 0000
"QUERY ACTUAL LEVEL" Answer shall be the actual arc power level. During preheating and whenever there is a lamp error the answer shall be 'MASK'. In case of a multi channel device the answer shall be the actual level of the selected channel. If more than one channel is selected contents and the levels of the selected channels are not identical, the answer shall be 'MASK'. If none of the channels which are selected actually exists, the answer shall be 'MASK'. 11.3.4 Application extended commands Replacement: Application extended commands shall be preceded by command 272 ‘ENABLE DEVICE TYPE 9’. For device types other than 9 these commands may be used in a different way. A sequencer shall not react to application extended commands preceded by command 272 ‘ENABLE DEVICE TYPE X’ with X ≠ 9. 11.3.4.1 Application extended configuration commands Every configuration command (224 – 231) shall be received a second time within 100 ms before it is executed in order to decrease the probability of incorrect reception. No other commands addressing the same control gear shall be sent between these two commands, otherwise the first such command shall be ignored and the respective configuration sequence shall be aborted. Command 272 shall be sent before the two instances of the respective control command, but not repeated between them (see Figure 2). command 272application extendedconfigurationcommandapplication extendedconfigurationcommandmax. 100 ms Figure 2 – Application extended configuration command sequence example IEC

All values of DTR shall be checked against the values mentioned in Clause 10, i.e. the value shall be set to the upper / lower limit if it is above / below the valid range defined in Clause 10. Command 224: YAAA AAA1 1110 0000 "STORE DTR AS LEVEL POINT N" The contents of the DTR shall be stored as arc power level of the selected channels of point N. The selected channels are given by command 230 'STORE DTR AS CHANNEL SELECTION'. If no existent channel is selected, the command shall be ignored. N is given by the contents of DTR2. If N specifies a non-existent point, the command shall be ignored. Command 225: YAAA AAA1 1110 0001 "STORE DTR AS HOLD TIME POINT N"
The contents of the DTR shall be stored as hold time for point N. The actual time (T) appropriate to a hold time register value (X) shall be calculated as follows: sm25X·=T
for X = 0 … 40,
s5.0)40X(s1·-+=T for X = 41 … 58,
s1)58X(s10·-+=T

s600)212X(s3600·-+=T for X = 213 … 254. Tolerance: ± ½ step; monotonic. N is given by the contents of DTR2. If N specifies a non-existent point, the command shall be ignored. Command 226: YAAA AAA1 1110 0010 "STORE DTR AS SEQUENCER FADE TIME POINT N" The contents of the DTR shall be stored as sequencer fade time for point N. The actual time (T) appropriate to a sequencer fade time register value (X) shall be calculated as follows: sm25X·=T
with X = 1 … 40, s5.0)40X(s1·-+=T with X = 41 … 58, s1)58X(s10·-+=T

The Sequencer Fade Time can be set to zero or to any value in the range 'Min Sequencer Fade Time' to 254. The 'Min Sequencer Fade Time' can be queried by command 248 'QUERY MIN SEQUENCER FADE TIME'. Programming the Sequencer Fade Time to 0 means 'no fade' (change of light output as fast as possible, faster than the Min Sequencer Fade Time). N is given by the contents of DTR2. If N specifies a non-existent point, the command shall be ignored. SIST EN 62386-210:2011
