Lutron Caséta Pico 4/5 Button Remote Advanced Actions (Core Integration)

This is a Blueprint that allows you to configure custom actions for all 4/5 buttons as well as additional 4/5 actions for long presses and 2/3 additional actions for double presses for a total of 10/13 actions off of a single remote. This integration uses the Core Lutron Caséta Integration unlike many others from a while ago.

Caveat: make sure that at least one of the entities is enabled for each Pico that you want to use, otherwise it will not show up in the dropdown selector.

  name: Lutron Pico 5 Button Actions

    Different Actions on Short, Long, and Double Click button presses.
    There is no Double Click for up/down as those are slower to respond and produce bad experience.
    
    Make sure you have enabled at least one Pico Event Entity for each device, they are default to not enabled as of 2023.3, otherwise they won't show up as an available device in the drop down list.

Have been wanting something like this for a while, excellent work!

Are the new pico paddle remotes supported yet?

Awesome work but I was wondering if you can help. I have multiple Pico remote at home and half are model: PJ2-3BRL-GXX-F01 and the other half are model: PJ2-3BRL-GXX-X01… Can you add both models to the blueprint please?

Thanks Greg, this works perfect. I took the liberty to modify it for the 2-button remote too. If anyone wants it, let me know.

@mjkosin68 I’d be interested in the 2 button pick blueprint! Currently have one setup at my workbench and wanna add some extra controls to it

Hey Blinks, sorry I missed your post. Let me know if you still need it.

awesome blueprint. But I went on eBay to get another pico 5 Remote, this one has fan on the on and off, but the blueprint won’t recognize it. I enabled the entities, delete, restart, reinstall, created new account with Lutron… I’m goin nuts tonight

That is because it’s not the type the Blueprint was written for. You’ll need to look in your “Devices” list in HA, and search for “PJ2-3BRL” and find your new Pico there with it’s model number (I suspect it’s PJ2-3BRL-GWH-F01)

Select it, and you’ll need to update the Blueprint to match the model, including the part in the parentheses. Please share back so others will know what to set the model field to.

Yes its the F01… can I just add that under the model number in the yaml file of the blueprint or do I have to duplicate the blueprint and make one with that model number instead?

You can try to add it and see if it can pick up both (would be ideal) or make a separate Blueprint for that one. Let us know which worked so we can either add the new blueprint or modify the existing one.

I ended up duplicating that blueprint and just changing the model number on the copy. I tried to modify the original blueprint in different ways to let it see both at the same time but it gives me a duplicate error.

New to HA…Can you describe how to setup the raise & lower buttons. It was working by clicking multiple times but not sure how to get press & hold to raise & lower to work.
Thanks in advance!
