FW 0.12.8

🚀 Major Features & Enhancements DMX512 & Art-Net Protocol Support

• DMX512 IO: Full implementation of DMX512 lighting protocol with configurable RTS pin support
• Art-Net Component: New dedicated Art-Net component for network-based lighting control
• sACN Support: Enhanced sACN (Streaming ACN) protocol implementation
• Berry API Integration: New .tx() and .cb() Berry API methods for DMX, Art-Net, and sACN control

DALI Lighting Enhancements

• Advanced Configuration: Added “poweronlevel”, “systemfailurelevel”, and “systemfailurelevel” parameters
• Fade Control: New “fadetime” and “faderate” configuration options for smooth transitions
• Conditional Transmission: DALI commands only sent when proper config parameters are set

Enhanced Configuration

• RTS Pin Support: Added RTS (Request to Send) pin configuration option
• Power Management: Overhauled PowerManage plugin with “pin”, “en”, and “holdtime” parameters

🐛 Critical Bug Fixes
