Room Control Login

[Daryl Clark]

Thank you in advance for any guidance you can provide.

I'm trying to wrap my head around the Room Control feature in my MX300G2 system. We have a Lutron RadioRa2 lighting control system in place today. I can log into it via Telnet (username / password required) and issue a command to control scenes, lights, etc... and it will send back status messages.

My goal is to integrate this with the MX so the end user has a button on the screen "VC Mode" that sends the command to the Lutron system (via Telnet) to activate the proper scene. The Lutron system will take care of setting the light levels, adjusting shades, etc...

I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to add the Lutron System, credentials and set up the proper format of the commands to send over.

I have, multiple times. Still very unclear how to add a telnet host, set the credentials and define the syntax to send and receive.

I’m not aware of a way to open an outbound telnet/SSH session from the JavaScript macro. You can make an outbound RESTful call or use the GPIO ports.
