Using the #AREA command
Hi,
I got a test-rig, using a QSE-CI-NWK-E to control a QSNE-2DAL-D. I have assigned a few individual integration ID's, in order to use the #OUTPUT and #AREA commands:
zones:
#INTEGRATIONID,4,0x01943e90,301,zone1
~INTEGRATIONID,4,01943E90,301,zone1
#INTEGRATIONID,4,0x01943e90,302,zone2
~INTEGRATIONID,4,01943E90,302,zone2
area:
#INTEGRATIONID,4,0x01943e90,401,area1
~INTEGRATIONID,4,01943E90,401,area1
This works fine with #OUTPUT, eg. for dimming:
#OUTPUT,zone1,1,50
~OUTPUT,zone1,1,50
However, the #AREA command does not respond at all, for example:
Setting scene (no reaction on lights, or response in console):
#AREA,area1,6,1
Querying occupancy state (all #monitoring options enabled):
?AREA,area1,8
What could be the issue here ?

Hello,
Are you sure this is actually part of a Quantum system? The #Area commands are exclusive to Quantum. If this is a stand alone QSNE-2DAL-D system, the #outputs commands will work but the #Area's will not. Also you mentioned you assigned integration ID's. Is this something you did manually using the #integrationid commands? I ask because again that is a task done for a stand alone system. Quantum automatically assigns integration ID's which you can pull the report listing them. Hope this helps.

Hi, thanks.
The case is, that I am implementing support for Lutron (via QSE-CI-NWK-E) in our software, and test it
by using QSNE-2DAL-D (along with an occupancy sensor + keypad).
I did indeed assign IDs manually using #INTEGRATIONID, in order to test #OUTPUT and #AREA.
The cases I have seen so far, uses Grafik EYE + QSE-CI-NWK-E, and we simply use the integration ID's + component ID for addressing (#DEVICE).
However, got a new case, where the Homeworks QS (HQP6-2) (with Energi Savr Node) is used instead of QSE-CI-NWK-E. All though they have similarities,
they also have differences. The HQP6-2 has these "virtual" integration ids set, hence #OUTPUT must be used instead of #DEVICE.
Since I don't have a HQP6-2 at the moment, I was hoping to simulate this with the QSE-CI-NWK-E by using #INTEGRATIONID.
I can list the integration IDs on the QSE-CI-NWK-E by running "?INTEGRATIONID,3". When I tried that HQP6-2 (on which I got temporary access to), I got "~Error,1".
