# Lutron Athena

> Connect Lutron Athena to KODE OS for lighting data

> Connect Lutron Athena to KODE OS for lighting data integration

## Overview

Use this integration to connect Lutron Athena to KODE OS. You can discover lighting and shading devices, pull snapshot data over TCP/IP, and monitor fixture and zone state from Data Sources across commercial spaces.

| Property            | Value    |
| ------------------- | -------- |
| **System Type**     | Lighting |
| **Communication**   | TCP/IP   |
| **Collection**      | Pull     |
| **Collection Mode** | SNAPSHOT |

## Supported Capabilities

* Discover Devices & Points
* Collect Sensor Data

## Prerequisites

* Network access to the Lutron Athena controller or device
* The IP address and port of the on-site system
* KODE OS environment with access to Data Sources

## Configure Connector in KODE OS

1. Navigate to **Data Sources** in your building
2. Click **API Catalog** and search for **Lutron Athena**
3. Click **+ Add Datasource**
4. Fill in the fields below and complete the three-page setup flow

| Field            | Required | Type | Description                                        |
| ---------------- | -------- | ---- | -------------------------------------------------- |
| **IP Address**   | Yes      | text | The IP address of the on-site controller or device |
| **Port**         | Yes      | text | The port number for connecting to the system       |
| **Pairing Port** | Yes      | text | The port used for device pairing                   |

## Discover Devices and Points

After configuring the connector, click **Discover** on the connector detail page. KODE OS will query the Lutron Athena system and return a list of available devices and their data points.

Review the discovered items and select the devices you want to register in KODE OS.

For more details on the discovery process, see the [Discovery guide](/products/integrations/capabilities/discovery).

## Devices and Points

When you discover devices from Lutron Athena, KODE OS maps them to the following device types and data points:

### Lighting Fixture

Canonical Type: `default`

| # | Point             | Description                           | Unit | Writable | Collection |
| - | ----------------- | ------------------------------------- | ---- | -------- | ---------- |
| 1 | `state`           | Current operating state               | --   | No       | Polling    |
| 2 | `occupancyStatus` | Current occupancy status of the space | --   | No       | Polling    |
| 3 | `currentScene`    | Currently active lighting scene       | --   | No       | Polling    |
| 4 | `level`           | Current level value                   | --   | No       | Polling    |

## What Data You Get

### Point History

Time-series readings including state, occupancyStatus, currentScene, level, collected at regular intervals from connected devices

### Polling Schedule

* **Point History** -- Default polling: 5 minutes (min: 5 minutes, max: 5 minutes)

For more details on collection modes, see the [Data Collection guide](/products/integrations/capabilities/data-collection).

## Use Cases

Once connected, this integration enables you to:

* Monitor lighting system status, energy usage, and occupancy-driven behavior
* Coordinate lighting schedules with HVAC and building automation systems
* Track lighting energy consumption and identify optimization opportunities

## Troubleshooting

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Cannot connect to controller">
    Verify the IP address and port are correct. Ensure the Lutron Athena controller is powered on and connected to the network. Check that firewalls allow inbound connections on the configured port from the KODE OS server.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Discovery returns no devices">
    Verify the connector credentials have sufficient permissions in the Lutron Athena system to list devices. Run a test connection first to confirm connectivity. Some systems require specific API scopes or roles for device enumeration.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Data collection stops or gaps appear">
    Check the connector status on the Data Sources page. If the status shows an error, review the error logs on the connector detail page. Common causes include expired credentials, network changes, or rate limiting by the Lutron Athena API.
