The 3
rd
party system can monitor network traffic for a command which would signify a button
press or release. When a Sleeve Button is pressed, a command similar to the following will be
sent out which the 3
rd
party system can subsequently listen to and react from:
#DEVICE,X,Y,Z
where
X = the integration ID of the Pico (acting as the LaunchPort Sleeve Buttons placeholder)
Y = the component number of the button being pressed
Z = 3 (press) or 4 (release)
Most drivers will require the Component Number and Integration ID for all devices that it is to
control. This information can be found in the Integration Report, built into the programming
software.
On an installation which does require LaunchPort Sleeve Buttons functionality, but does not
currently require Lutron product, a Main Repeater and one device, such as a 15A plug in switch
(RR-15APS) is all that would be needed and is the most cost effective method for using the
sleeve buttons for 3
rd
party control without the need for a full Lutron system.
3.5 Activating LaunchPort Sleeve Buttons to a RadioRA 2 System
The process of activating the LaunchPort Sleeve Buttons to the RadioRA 2 system is the same
as activating a Pico to the system.
To activate a Pico to either link type, the “Off” button will need to be held for a approximately 6-
10 seconds. Refer to
Appendix A
in
Section 5.0
to determine which LaunchPort Sleeve Button
maps to the Pico “Off” button.
