Keypads, Lutron Scenes, and Pico remote controls through Alarm.com are no longer supported.
Interesting because I still see my Lutron Radio RA2 keypads, scenes and Picos in the Alarm.com app and they work fine. Firmware and apps are all up to date.
According to notes from 6/8/2020, these features are no longer supported. It does say that the roll out may take a few weeks for all accounts. Let me know if you still see this functionality in a couple weeks.
I’m considering a few Lutron solutions, blinds specifically for now. Does it seem like a separation between the alarm.com platform and Lutron is coming? -Thanks
I couldn’t say for certain as nothing has been announced however, since 6/8 compatibility has been integrated for retail versions of the caseta smart bridge system (L-BDG2-WH) as well as some dealer and customer facing integration tools through the Alarm.com app have been made available.
So I don’t believe they would add those features if they were planing on doing away with Lutron integration.
