RA doesnt have a RS232 and IR interface on the
same control interface. So I would need 1 of
each correct? Could they be spaced apart and
used as repeaters?
they are Master Controls which do some of the same thing as a repeater : you may only need one for the whole house, as long as 17 scenes is enough
if you centrally locate an RM433 antenna (or two) it should work OK
the Lutron RA-IR is about $400.00 so worth a try
note it comes with a remote that only has 4 scenes plus all off and up/down but the Mega code list has all 17 commands
I use RA throughout a 5500 sq ft home: the HT has a Grafic Eye which can be controlled by IR or an RS232 interface (I use IR for the GE which shares IR codes for the RA-IR: I get arond this by using discrete port outputs from the RP-6)
