Programming Overview
Programming a RadioRA 2 system to interface with a Honeywell Vista-128BPT security panel is done in four phases:
1.) Install and program the Honeywell Vista-128BPT security system according to Honeywell instructions.
2.) Program the Vista-128BPT to enable the extra settings to allow the integration, not covered in the Honeywell instructions
(see Appendix 2).
3.) Install and program the Lutron RadioRA 2 system using RadioRA 2 programming software version 5.0 or higher.
4.) Program appropriate phantom buttons associated with each security action, as described in the following section.
Programming Phantom Buttons for Security
Actions in the Honeywell Vista-128BPT security panel will send RS-232 commands to the RadioRA 2 system. Each command is
associated with a specific phantom button, and each phantom button may be programmed to deliver a desired scene. When a
command is received from the security system, the corresponding phantom button is automatically “pressed”. For certain
buttons, a Time of Day feature has been pre-programmed so that the most appropriate action takes place.
The RadioRA 2 Main Repeater has 100 phantom buttons available for use with integration. Buttons 76-100 are configured to
receive commands from the Honeywell Vista Turbo system. Table 1 shows how each security action is associated with RadioRA
2 phantom buttons and Table 2 offers a recommended scene for each phantom button. The Time of Day, when various actions
will take place, is also specified. Table 3 provides a timeline illustrating how the RadioRA 2 system will automatically respond to
various security commands throughout the day.
Note: If the Honeywell Vista-128BPT system has no partitions, use phantom buttons associated with partition 1. See Table 2 for
the phantom button to partition mapping.

Table 1: Security Actions and associated Phantom Buttons (Partition 1)
This table illustrates the various possible actions from a security system and the phantom buttons they will activate depending on Time of
Day. The recommended phantom button scene name is also matched to the phantom button number.
