Have you tried getting the child support group first? It would look something like this (note that example is for incidents):
$supportgroup = get-scsmchildenumeration -enumeration (get-scsmenumeration -name tierqueue | where {$_.name -eq 'dept1'}) | where {$_.displayname -eq '2LS'}
Then insert $supportgroup in place of "depts1\2LS" in your above example.
Or you should just be able to set the -supportgroup switch to "(get-scsmchildenumeration -enumeration (get-scsmenumeration -name tierqueue | where {$_.name -eq 'dept1'}) | where {$_.displayname -eq '2LS'})" (without quotes).
I haven't tried this, but hopefully that would work.
