Luminext Achieves TALQ 2.7.1 Certification
Luminext has once again reached an important milestone in smart public lighting. The Luminizer Central Management System (CMS) has been successfully certified according to the latest TALQ 2.7.1 standard. This makes Luminizer the first certified solution worldwide to support the new DALI D4i TALQ Zhaga profiles within the TALQ Protocol.
With this certification, Luminext once again confirms its leading role in open, interoperable, and future-proof smart city solutions.
A new step in smart asset data and management
Smart lighting projects have traditionally focused mainly on lighting control and energy savings. While these provide major benefits, extensive possibilities for data-driven asset management have often remained limited in practice.
Thanks to the collaboration between the TALQ Consortium, the DALI Alliance, and the Zhaga Consortium, this is now changing. With the introduction of the new DALI D4i TALQ Zhaga profiles, cities, municipalities, and grid operators can now directly retrieve valuable luminaire and asset data from their lighting infrastructure. This enables more efficient maintenance, improved planning, and more reliable management of public lighting systems.
First certified implementation worldwide
As an active participant within the TALQ Consortium, Luminext played a direct role in the development of this new functionality. Shortly after the official publication of the standard, the Luminext software team successfully implemented and certified the new profiles.
As an active contributor to the development of the TALQ Protocol, we wanted to make these new capabilities immediately available to our customers as soon as the standard was published. Thanks to the outstanding work of our software team, we achieved certification the very next day. This allows customers to benefit from this new functionality right away.
More flexibility for smart cities
With the TALQ 2.7.1 certification, Luminizer provides municipalities and cities with an even stronger foundation for interoperable smart city projects. By using open standards, different systems, vendors, and components can work together more easily.
This results in:
- better interoperability between systems;
- more efficient public lighting management;
- improved asset management;
- lower operational costs;
- and greater flexibility for future expansions within smart city projects.
