Does anyone have an example of a RS232 code for radio ra that works with RTI.
From Lutron it looks like, BP,16,ON.

What about dimming an individual load?

I had to create a phantom button for the load then did a macro like this:


Serial Port 5 (9600 8N1): RAISE,3\r
Pause until button is released
Serial Port 5 (9600 8N1): STOPRL\r

Someone may know an easier way.

Have you actually use this? I tried and it didn't work. I also tried using a button test condition and it didn't work either. It looks like the Chronos didn't accept the stop raise command fast enough to stop the ramping.
I'm always right. The only time I was wrong was the time that I thought, that I was wrong.

Is it possible that any of you could test this with a Chronos and confirm that it works with it? Unfortunately the set up that I was working with is in the Bahamas and I don't have a way to test this before I return over there; probably in a couple of weeks. When I tried it didn't work. Again, it looks like the Chronos does not responded fast enough to the stoprl command.

I just came back from the job site and yes it works. I created the macro in the RP6 for the STOPRL command but I forgot to put the RS232 string on it. I feel that from the time that the buttom is released to the time that the load actually stops raising or lowering, the elapse time does not match the actual action/reaction combo.
