Controling Lutron Homeworks QS over IP

HI.
Could do with some pointers because I have missed something out and just can't see what.
Reading the Lutron integration protocol document I have come up with the following command to "press" button 6 on keypad id 72.

#DEVICE,72,6,3

# =its an action.
DEVICE = I wish to control a device.
72 = the device ID (setup in Lutron programing software).
6 = the component number (button 6)
3 = the action number (press)

Ip address is correct, port number 23, carriage return line feed in place and I have tried with and without password username as setup in Telnet logins

Any help would be gratefully received as the day draws to a close and I have little to show for it.

Many Thanks.
Russell.

Hi, I have had the exact problem for Lutron Homeworks QS here are my settings:

IP: 192.168.0.239
Port: 23
Type: Generic IP Device
Initial Command:default,default
Maintain active connection: enabled
command suffix: \x0D\x0A

Command: #DEVICE,33,1,3

I get no control.

I have used Teraterm to log into the Homeworks QS processor, entered the same user name and password and sent the same command and it works every time.

Please can DemoPad have a look at this?

The initial command should be username\x0D\x0Apassword, eg for the default settings, it should be

default\x0D\x0Adefault

Maintain Active should be ticked.

You can then send commands as normal, and you will see some of them appear in the terminal window of the QS software as though they were normal button presses. Example project attached, which retrieves and displays the processor firmware version, and sends a button press/release (2 commands). (Note the project requires PC software version 1.4.6 or later)
