How to program MIR-LFQTHW-WH Maestro Ceiling fan controller in app?
I can't seen to find a way to connect the ceiling fan controller to the hub/app on my phone.
Just got everything up today so any help would be great.

Unfortunately you cannot control Maestro devices with the Caseta Smart Bridge or the phone. Maestro devices are stand alone only.

Got it working with my Logitech Harmony system and tied the hub + the Fan control into Alexa. :) Next step is to do some better macros for the fan/light, calling Logitech tomorrow for that.

I programmed it manually via IR and did all of the various commands - light on, light off, fan on, fan off, light brighter/dimmer, fan faster/slower. I then created activities for those items, the key was with fan on/off there's no default light on/off just fan on/off. Those activities were discovered by Alexa, which I could then add the light to my light groups or to address directly.

You must have an IR blaster which points toward the Maestro fan switch.

My hub has line of sight with the switch. :)

I got the IR basics with my harmony hub, but cant figure out speed or dimming. Would it be possible take a few screen shots of how you got it rigged in the Harmony App and post them here?
Here is a tip for others, In the Harmony Android app, I set power setting of the lutron device to "No Power Button On My Original Remote" option so that the ON/Off functions are light or fan specific when also using the add on commands in the activity.
I am stoked that I am almost there, this part of my home automation roll out has a been on the honey do list for too long.
