IEC 62868-2-4:2025 specifies the safety requirements for rigid organic light emitting diode (OLED) tiles and panels for use on supplies up to 120 V ripple free DC for indoor and similar general lighting purposes.

IEC 62386-105:2024 applies to control gear and control devices for control by digital signals of electronic lighting equipment. Typically, a bus unit according to the IEC 62386 series contains firmware. There are circumstances where it can be necessary to change the firmware after production or shipping of the product, for example if the bus unit does not operate as intended. In such a case, a firmware update of a bus unit via the interface is beneficial. This firmware update process is primarily designed to be a bug fix process, not a feature extension process. Nevertheless, the firmware update process can be used for feature extensions. But it is important that the risk of negative effects to the complete system be considered in detail.
