I thought a reset would help, so I deleted Lutron from Google Home. When configured, the Lutron Caséta integration will automatically discover the currently supported devices as set up in the Lutron Smart Bridge. The name assigned in the Lutron mobile app will be used to form the entity_id used in Home Assistant. E.g., a dimmer called ‘Lamp’ in a room called ‘Bedroom’ becomes light.bedroom_lamp in Home Assistant. Rapidly tap the top “on” button three times and on the third tap hold until the lights connected to the switch begin to dim up and down, immediately tap the top “on” button three times rapidly. The connected lights will then alternate dim and bright slowly.
Instead, it uses its own mesh network protocol to connect to a dedicated hub. I don't have anything by Lutron so I don't know exactly how this works, but if all of the devices are connected through a single account or hub, you may try unlinking and relinking it. Devices can also be added to rooms and scenes, so you can control a whole room with one command, or set the lights just right for a certain setting, like watching a movie. Those who own Lutron Caseta switches and controllers will tell you that they are among the best and most reliable. I’ve seen people that have more than forth Caseta devices, and they can all be controlled using Google Assistant through Google Home and Google Nest speakers.
How to setup Google Home with Caséta/RA2 Select
They have several lines of home automation devices that manage light switches, dimmers, occupancy sensors, HVAC controls, etc. The lutron_caseta integration in Home Assistant is responsible for communicating with the Lutron Caseta Smart Bridge for the Caseta product line of dimmers, switches, shades, and sensors. It will also communicate with the Lutron Radio RA2 Main Repeater for the RA2 Select product line of dimmers, switches, shades, and sensors.
This should ideally be done after new devices are added to the system for them to become available to Google. Voice commands were taken from the Lutron Support website located here. I would check the site to see if there have been any updates. The devices are not assigned to any rooms yet, so you should be able to find them if you scroll all the way to the bottom, under the “Linked to you” section. The names should match however you had them named in the Lutron app, all you need to do is assign them to rooms.

Anyone may browse the forum, however to post questions and respond, you must register. This article covers the set up and general questions for Google Home Integration with Caséta and RA2 Select. Google Home allows voice control, routine, and extensive SmartHome integration. Once I bought my own house, I naturally wanted to start adding technology to my house. I’ve been using and adding smart devices for several years now, and I have learned a lot! This is the site where I share everything I have learned.
Turn lights on to a soft level and slightly raise shades every morning as you head into the kitchen for coffee. Add personalized scenes to control multiple lights and shades together at the touch of a button. Create a “movie” scene that dims lights and lowers shades as the movie begins.

Close will change the tilt so they are as shut as they can be. Interest will be charged to your account from the purchase date if the balance is not paid in full within 6 months. Right now the only way is to have separate accounts and log in/out. I cannot find any documentation or posts related to using the app to control two homes. Obviously, Apple's "Home" app can do it and i could use that, but think that the Lutron app should support multiple locations.
Link your Caséta Wireless devices to different routines and SmartApps in Samsung SmartThings app. Install your devices, plug in the Smart Bridge and connect it to your Wi-Fi router. You can now ask Google to "sync my devices" and it will refresh the device list. Note that for shades, only an absolute tilt can be specified; cannot rotate shades by a relative amount in either direction.

Sends Google a list of all Google-eligible devices that are currently on the user's account. For blinds, saying open or close will control the tilt, or the angle, of the blinds. Open will tilt the blinds so they are parallel with the ground.
You must have the Smart Bridge to integrate Lutron Caseta with the Google Assistant, or any other smart assistant . The Smart Away feature randomly turns lights on and off during the evening when you’re not home. You can manually trigger this feature in the app at your convenience or automatically trigger it if geofencing is turned on. The geofencing feature controls lights based on your location. Maybe you always leave the entryway lights on as you head out the door in the morning? Geofencing will turn them off for you once you’re out the door.
For more information on working with buttons in Home Assistant, see the Buttons integration. Button Entities are created for each Keypad button and Pico Remote button present within the system. Radio RA3 and HomeWorks QSX systems can use these button entities to activate scenes that are defined within the Lutron system. Occupancy groups will appear in Home Assistant using an entity_id based on the area name in which the first sensor of the group is located.
These voice commands are used to control the Lutron Caseta Fan Speed Control. The Google Home app will take you back to the setup screen. You will need to exit out of the setup process and go to the home screen to see the devices. The Smart Hub and App for Caséta are the perfect foundations for creating a connected home system. Monitor and control lights from anywhere, so you can always be in touch with your home. For dimmable lights including wall and plug-in dimmers, see the light section on this page.
If I press add device and press Lutron Caseta in the Home app it just says "Unlink account" and doesn't seem to have any way to update it with new lights. For example, it it’s time to watch a big game or a movie on TV, Lutron and Google Assistant can make sure the lighting is just right by asking Google to set the scene. Google assistant can then tell your Lutron Serena shades to lower and our Lutron dimmer switches to lower the lights so there is no glare on the TV. After setup, dimmable lights including wall and plug-in dimmers will appear in Home Assistant using an entity_id based on the name used in the Lutron mobile app.
It seems like you can control just about everything with it. Lutron is also a leader in their industry, which is lighting controls. They are also leading the way for developing smart lighting controls, and other controls for items you might find around a house, such as lamps, shades, and ceiling fans.

Hi all, I have Lutron Caseta connected to Google Home, so it shows 10 lights. I just installed 3 more, and added them to the Lutron app but Google Home doesn't show them. Tried restarting, refreshing, I can't get them to show up.
For example, one or more sensors in the Master Bathroom will appear in Home Assistant as binary_sensor.master_bathroom_occupancy. Scenes are not directly supported on RA3 and QSX models, however the button platform can be used to activate scenes for these systems. Lutron Caséta can be auto-discovered by Home Assistant. If an instance was found, it will be shown as “Discovered”, which you can select to set it up right away. A hands-free Smart Home begins with Google Home connected to a Caséta Smart Hub, turning your voice into a Smart Home command center. Selecting any of the retailer links will redirect you from a Lutron operated website to a site operated by that retailer.
