TALQ Consortium Releases Version 2.6.0 Smart City Protocol

In mid-April, the TALQ Consortium released a new version 2.6.0 of its Smart City Protocol. Version 2.6.0 introduces a new Cabinet Control profile, an extension of active periods and new commands for color lights – the latter being aligned with the DALI-2 (IEC 82386) Part 209 definition. The updated TALQ protocol (both data model and OpenAPI definitions) continues to be available publicly and free-of-charge via GitHub.

The complete TALQ press release can be found here.
