Lutron® integration protocol

Integration Operations

The LutronR integration protocol will allow third-party equipment, such as touch-screens, universal remote

controls and software applications, to control and monitor devices in a LutronR lighting control system.

The protocol supports three basic types of integration operations:

•

Execute an action in the LutronR system

•

Query the status of the LutronR system and LutronR devices

•

Monitor responses from the LutronR system

Operation Characters

To help create and manage the different integration operations, three distinct operation characters have been

selected to begin each command. All protocol messages will start with one of the following operation characters:

Executes an action (e.g. turn a dimmer on/off)

Query system information (e.g. determine on/off status of a dimmer)

Monitor responses from the system when requested or after a change has occurred

(e.g. if someone turns on a dimmer locally a response command is sent out to indicate the change)

Note to Integrator: Operation characters are not used in any other location in the protocol command string. Therefore,

the driver can search for these characters to determine the start of a new command string.

Command Types

Operation characters will be followed by command types. The two most common commands are: OUTPUT

and DEVICE. Other command types are available; see the Integrator's Reference for a summary.

•

OUTPUT allows control and monitoring of device outputs such as dimmers and contact closure outputs.

•

DEVICE allows control and monitoring of device inputs such as button presses, releases, and contact closure inputs.

Command Structure

The protocol command structure is made up of three parts:

Command Integration ID Command-speciﬁc ﬁelds

The Command is made up of the operation character and the command type.

2. The Integration ID is assigned to each device in the system during system setup, providing a unique user-

assigned address for each system device.

3. The Command-speciﬁc ﬁelds contain additional information relevant to the type of command. Details

about what command-speciﬁc ﬁeld data is supported can be found in the appropriate device speciﬁc

section of this integration protocol guide.

Command Termination

Each command is made up of ﬁelds, separated by commas and terminated with a carriage return (ASCII

dec 13/hex 0D) and a line feed (ASCII dec 10/hex 0A). Carriage return is shown as <CR> throughout this

document and line feed is shown as <LF>.
