SouthboHomeKitGuy's workaround almost works for the behavior I want, but not quite. I'm here mostly to add my voice to the chorus asking for the ability to trigger a HomeKit scene from a Pico remotes. A little reprogramming is all that is needed. I can't see why the hub couldn't capture each button press and map it to a scene. Their four button Pico with the same ability to independently address each button to a HomeKit scene would be awesome. I have one in my Den turning on/off/dimming two different Hue lights (table and floor lamps) and two different Lutron in-wall dimmers (two sets of overhead recessed lights).įingers crossed that Lutron is listening and will give us some more options here.
Because I can control both Lutron and Hue technology (or ANY other HomeKit compliant device) through HomeKit scenes, this lets me have buttons that control whatever I want. So, you can have four scenes off one remote. They don't have a standardized size and thus cannot fit into a standard wall plate, but they do have the very important advantage of being able to independently program all four of its switches using HomeKit.
Unfortunately, if you want to use Pico remotes as a way to trigger scenes, you'll still need to use the workaround I describe.Īs much as I'd rather stick with the Pico remotes because of their superior design (i.e., consistent appearance with Caseta in-wall dimmers and ability to fit into a standard Decora wall plate), I've added a few Hue remotes to my setup. can a Pico directly trigger or is this workaround still (Feb 2018) required?
