Dali groups

[khalil]

Possible via a script but keep in mind that you will lose status values for each ballast if using DALI groups. Are you using grp.write or grp.update to change several ballast values at once?

Adding short addresses 1, 2, 3, 4 to group 7:

Code:

require('user.dali')
dalicmd('internal', 'addtogroup', { addrtype = 'short', address = 1, value = 7 })
dalicmd('internal', 'addtogroup', { addrtype = 'short', address = 2, value = 7 })
dalicmd('internal', 'addtogroup', { addrtype = 'short', address = 3, value = 7 })
dalicmd('internal', 'addtogroup', { addrtype = 'short', address = 4, value = 7 })

Setting group to a certain value:

Code:

require('user.dali')
value = event.getvalue()
value = math.floor(value * 2.54)
dalicmd('internal', 'arc', { addrtype = 'group', address = 7, value = value })

Is there any difference if I use grp.write
Also, I should run the first script only one time?
another thing what is the command to get the status for a group?
