Conversation
- Document non-standard combined DAPC+CCT master flow - Document QUERY COLOUR TYPE (0xE7) backward frame response (0x02) - Remove stale 'No backward frame responses' limitation - Fix config key names (pin_rx/pin_tx, correct defaults 14/17) - Add Waveshare Pico-DALI2 as example hardware - Add note about enabling White Balance Correction for RGB-only strips - Add lib_deps to platformio_override.ini example snippet
- library.json: pin qqqDALI dependency to immutable commit SHA (e39a7da0) instead of branch ref for reproducible builds - readme.md: add 'text' language tag to ASCII circuit diagram fenced code block (fixes markdownlint MD040) - setup(): fix pin leak — deallocate RX pin if TX allocation fails
…Y COLOUR TYPE fix - Add tx_inverted config option: corrects TX polarity for single-stage inverting circuits (e.g. qqqDALI DIY PNP). Default false is correct for the Waveshare Pico-DALI2 (NPN + opto = double inversion). - Add QUERY STATUS (0x90), QUERY CONTROL GEAR PRESENT (0x91) and QUERY ACTUAL LEVEL (0xA0) backward frame responses, so masters that probe for gear presence before sending DT8 commands will find us. - Fix QUERY COLOUR TYPE command byte: spec (IEC 62386-209) uses 0xF7; handle both 0xF7 and 0xE7 (non-standard masters) via case fallthrough. - readme: warn that qqqDALI DIY PNP circuit is conceptual and not isolated; document tx_inverted setting and new query responses.
Per IEC 62386-209, QUERY COLOUR TYPE is command 0xF7. Command 0xE7 is not a query and must not produce a backward frame response. The previous 0xE7 fallthrough was added for a non-standard master but violates the spec. Now that 0x90/0x91/0xA0 presence queries are handled, a compliant master will discover the gear via those and correctly use 0xF7.
Conformant DALI-2 masters send QUERY DEVICE TYPE before issuing ENABLE DEVICE TYPE 8 or any DT8 application extended commands. Without this response, such masters skip CCT control entirely. Update readme query-responses table and top-of-file comment.
WalkthroughAdds an ESP32-only DALI control-gear usermod. It handles DALI commands, brightness, DT8 colour temperature, query responses, configurable pins, and WLED integration. It also adds the library manifest, usermod ID, pin ownership, and usage documentation. ChangesDALI Gear usermod

e39a7da06242010bbb6771532c4ac17b3ec73834 instead of the mutable
fix/esp32-volatile-cast branch, matching the library.json pin.
- Line 89: Update the QUERY DEVICE TYPE command value from 0x18 to 0x99 in both
the documentation and the handleCommand() matching logic, while preserving the
existing 0x08 device-type response.
In `@usermods/dali_gear/usermod_dali_gear.cpp`:
- Around line 134-137: Replace the _pendingBF == 0 sentinel with a separate
pending-validity flag: have scheduleBF(uint8_t byte) mark a response pending
even when byte is 0, and update the loop() condition around _pendingBF to check
that flag. Clear the flag after the response is sent, preserving zero-valued
QUERY ACTUAL LEVEL and QUERY STATUS responses.
- Around line 362-367: Update the pending backward-frame handling around
scheduleBF() and the loop transmission block so _dali.tx() occurs within the
DALI 7Te–22Te response window, including under worst-case loop latency with
active effects; adjust the scheduling/transmission mechanism rather than relying
solely on a delayed loop iteration. Replace the millis() deadline check with a
rollover-safe unsigned time comparison, preserving the pending-frame state and
existing transmission behavior.
- Around line 347-350: Update the timer initialization around _daliTimer and
daliTimerISR to use the Arduino-ESP32 3.x timer API, replacing the 2.x-only
timerBegin, timerAttachInterrupt, timerAlarmWrite, and timerAlarmEnable calls
while preserving the existing timer period, auto-reload, and interrupt behavior
for env:usermods_V5.
- Around line 258-300: Update the DT8 command switch so 0xE7 handles SET
TEMPORARY COLOUR TEMPERATURE using the existing _dt8Active, _dtr0, _dtr1, and
_tempCCT flow; remove CCT handling from 0xE1, which must not update _tempCCT.
Change the colour-type query response from 0xF7 to 0xEF, scheduling backward
frame 0x02 only for 0xEF, and leave 0xF7 unanswered.
- Around line 432-434: Clear _dt8Active immediately after the DT8
application-extended command is consumed and applyCCT(mireds) has been invoked,
so the enable state is one-shot. Preserve the existing _dtr0/_dtr1 CCT
application and require a new ENABLE DEVICE TYPE 8 before subsequent DT8
commands such as 0xE2.

A response byte of 0x00 is never sent.
_pendingBF == 0 doubles as "no frame pending", and loop() line 362 gates on if (_pendingBF && ...). Two real responses encode to 0x00 and are therefore dropped:
QUERY ACTUAL LEVEL(line 255) whenbri == 0, becausewledBriToDaliLevel(0)returns 0.QUERY STATUS(lines 227–228) whenbri == 0and a short address is configured.
With the light off, the master receives no backward frame and treats the gear as absent or failed. Use a separate validity flag instead of a sentinel value.
🐛 Proposed fix using an explicit pending flag
void scheduleBF(uint8_t byte) {
_pendingBF = byte;
+ _pendingBFValid = true;
_pendingBFTime = millis() + 4; // 4ms after frame received in loop()
}Declare the flag next to the existing members (lines 98–99):
uint8_t _pendingBF = 0; // backward frame byte to send
+ bool _pendingBFValid = false; // true while _pendingBF holds an unsent response
uint32_t _pendingBFTime = 0; // millis() threshold — send when now >= thisThen gate on the flag in loop():
- if (_pendingBF && (millis() >= _pendingBFTime)) {
+ if (_pendingBFValid && (int32_t)(millis() - _pendingBFTime) >= 0) {
uint8_t bf = _pendingBF;

Use the IEC 62386-209 DT8 opcodes
At usermods/dali_gear/usermod_dali_gear.cpp:268-300, 0xE1 is SET TEMPORARY y-COORDINATE, 0xE2 is ACTIVATE, 0xE7 is SET TEMPORARY COLOUR TEMPERATURE Tc, and 0xEF is QUERY COLOUR TYPE FEATURES. The current switch stores CCT data for 0xE1 and ignores 0xE7, so conformant CCT commands do not update _tempCCT. It also responds to 0xF7, while a real 0xEF query receives no backward frame. Move the CCT handling to 0xE7, do not dispatch 0xE1 as CCT, and schedule 0x02 only for 0xEF; leave 0xF7 unanswered because it is not a DT8 command.

Keep backward-frame transmission inside the DALI response window
scheduleBF()sets a 4 ms target, butloop()is the only path that calls_dali.tx(). The timer ISR only calls_dali.timer(). If the nextloop()iteration occurs after 22Te, the backward frame is transmitted too late. Measure worst-case latency with active effects and ensure the transmission mechanism meets the 7Te–22Te window.- Use a rollover-safe comparison. The current comparison can transmit before the 4 ms deadline when
millis()wraps.

CI failed to compile: timerBegin()/timerAttachInterrupt()/timerAlarmWrite()/ timerAlarmEnable() used the removed IDF v4-era signatures. WLED's ESP32 build now targets arduino-esp32 core 3.x (IDF v5), which uses timerBegin(freq_hz), timerAttachInterrupt(timer, cb) and a combined timerAlarm(timer, value, autoreload, reload_count). Also bump the pinned qqqDALI (DALI-Lighting-Interface) commit to pick up two upstream build fixes needed for the same newer toolchain: - missing return in read_memory_bank() (-Werror=return-type) - invalid volatile-qualified pointer conversion in rx() Note: the file was also reformatted to the project's .clang-format style by an IDE auto-format-on-save; the functional change is limited to the timer API in setup().
The combined 'usermods' CI build environment (env:usermods) still extends env:esp32dev_V4, which uses the older arduino-esp32 core 2.x (IDF v4) timer API, while the per-usermod envs (usermods_esp32/esp32s2/esp32s3/esp32c3) use core 3.x (IDF v5). Gate the timer setup on ESP_ARDUINO_VERSION_MAJOR so both build targets compile.

Use 0x99 for QUERY DEVICE TYPE.
_dali.rx() decodes the frame into MSB-first bytes, and process() dispatches data[1] as cmdByte. In the pinned qqqDALI definitions, 0x18 is GO TO SCENE 8, while DALI_QUERY_DEVICE_TYPE is 0x99. Therefore, scene 8 commands incorrectly schedule a backward frame, and conformant device-type queries reach default and receive no response. Change the branch to case 0x99:.

The functions timerBegin, timerAttachInterrupt, and timerAlarm are part of the hardware timer API for the ESP32 platform in the Arduino environment [1]. Recent updates to the ESP32 Arduino core have changed the signature of timerBegin, removing the need for a timer index (NULL is no longer required or used as it was in older versions) [1]. The current usage pattern for these functions is as follows: 1. timerBegin(uint32_t frequency): This function initializes the timer at a specified frequency in Hz and returns a pointer to a timer structure (hw_timer_t *) [1]. Note that the older format requiring a timer index (e.g., timerBegin(0, 80, true)) is deprecated or removed in newer versions of the API [1]. 2. timerAttachInterrupt(hw_timer_t *timer, void (*userFunc)(void)): This function associates a callback function (userFunc) with the timer interrupt [1]. The callback will be triggered when the timer alarm conditions are met [1]. 3. timerAlarm(hw_timer_t *timer, uint64_t alarm_value, bool autoreload, uint64_t reload_count): This function configures the alarm trigger [1]. The alarm_value is defined in terms of the timer frequency set in timerBegin (if set to 1MHz, the value represents microseconds), autoreload determines if the timer resets after the alarm, and reload_count specifies the number of repeats (0 is unlimited) [1]. Example setup: timer = timerBegin(1000000); // Set 1MHz frequency timerAttachInterrupt(timer, &onTimer); // Attach callback timerAlarm(timer, 1000000, true, 0); // Trigger every 1 second, repeat indefinitely [1]

Handle timerBegin() failure before configuring the timer.
timerBegin(1000000) can return nullptr when configuration fails. The current code then passes that handle to timerAttachInterrupt() and timerAlarm(), while the claimed pins remain allocated. Add the failure guard and cleanup.
Proposed fix
_daliTimer = timerBegin(1000000);
+ if (_daliTimer == nullptr) {
+ DEBUG_PRINTLN(F("[DALI] timer allocation failed"));
+ PinManager::deallocatePin(_txPin, PinOwner::UM_DALI_GEAR);
+ PinManager::deallocatePin(_rxPin, PinOwner::UM_DALI_GEAR);
+ _enabled = false;
+ _initDone = true;
+ return;
+ }

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Validate daliAddr before storing it in _daliAddr.
getJsonValue() converts the JSON value with ArduinoJson v6 as<int8_t>() without range validation. Values 64..127 remain unchanged, while values such as 128 convert to 0. daliAddressedToMe() then compares these values with decoded short addresses 0..63, which can ignore all short-address frames or select address 0 incorrectly. Read into a wider temporary, reject or clamp values outside -1..63, and assign _daliAddr only after validation.

In `@usermods/dali_gear/usermod_dali_gear.cpp` at line 474, Update the daliAddr
handling around getJsonValue and _daliAddr to read the JSON value into a wider
temporary, validate that it is within -1 through 63, and assign _daliAddr only
after validation; reject or clamp out-of-range values without allowing
ArduinoJson’s int8_t conversion to wrap. Preserve configComplete behavior and
use the validated value for daliAddressedToMe comparisons.
