Do Lutron dimmers/switches with motion show up as independent devices?

Hi all, before I purchase some, could anyone confirm whether or not the Lutron Maestro Occupancy/Vacancy dimmers and switches show up in RadioRA 2 (and ultimately Hubitat) as independent devices; i.e. one ID for the dimmer and one ID for the motion? From the manual I believe you can't disable the vacancy feature, but I'd prefer to set a very long vacancy time and then have Hubitat manage the turn-off operation that will differ based on other things going on in the house. Will also be nice to not have to worry about batteries.

Thanks!

Which Lutron Maestro dimmers with occupancy/vacancy sensor also support their ClearConnect wireless protocol?

Ugh; that certainly makes it a non-starter. :grinning: I just threw a test dimmer into RadioRA 2 and see that you're correct; it doesn't show up as an addressable component under occupancy/vacancy, so it's all just internal to the switch. I was going by the Ra2 ecosystem list and just mistakenly assumed the repeater would know occupancy state so that other things could trigger off it.

Which device model # are you referring to?

I was under the impression the maestro dimmers with built-in occupancy/vacancy sensors don’t integrate with any of Lutron’s wireless lighting control product lines.

Edit: I mean the switch/dimmer component too, not just the occupancy sensor. The device needs a ClearConnect radio to work with RadioRA 2, caseta, etc.

Apparently I'm just batting zero today. I'm not sure what the click path was but somehow I made it to that series of switches from https://www.lutron.com/en-US/Products/Pages/WholeHomeSystems/RadioRA2/Components.aspx#components and confused myself into thinking they had clearconnect AND vacancy, but you're correct, no clearconnect on any switch that also has detection.

Guess I'll just add an actual Lutron sensor to the ceiling.

For a minute there, I thought maybe you knew something about some new Lutron devices that the rest of us didn’t :upside_down_face:.

The Jasco motion dimmers and switches support seperation like you are looking for.
