FLDude Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I came across a number of these outlets and picked them up. I am curious if there is an intermediate hub or something I can use to make them work with C4. Any ideas? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 alanchow Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Short answer no. Long answer - Control4's direct Zwave compatibility is quite low as 3rd parties cannot utilise the Zwave SDK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long answer - Control4's direct Zwave compatibility is quite low as 3rd parties cannot utilise the Zwave SDK. It would be amazing if C4 opened it so 3rd parties could use the wave SDK - I would gladly pay for native control of 3rd party drivers for the Jasco switches/dimmers, Schlage deadbolts, and Homeseer outdoor motion/light sensor, among others.

Any ideas? Thank you As Alan said there's no way to do it natively at this time (perhaps ever). However, you can connect many z-wave devices (these outlets included) to a Vera hub and then integrate them into C4 through that. However the Vera hub is being migrated to Ezlo which does not have a driver. Vera hubs won't automatically update their firmware so staying on existing firmware for existing integrations should continue to work. Devices work very well once integrated - though z-wave can be wonky sometimes. However this solution is far from ideal from a security standpoint (no more firmware means no more security updates) and I also don't know if you can activate a Vera hub still for new integration. But this may be a (not perfect) solution for you if you can still do it...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
