  1. I personally rather just stream using Google Cast and Apple Airplay. As such i favor the VSSL hardware. A.1, A.3 and A.6.
  2. Chowmain - FREE Nice DMBM Shade Controller driver Chowmain releases FREE Nice DMBM driver for Control4. This driver automatically imports Nice shades and groups into Control4. Once imported it provides instant up, down, stop + set level control and feedback from any Control4 user interface including on-screen navigator, mobile, tablet, touchscreens, keypads and more. Integration into Control4 not only allows you to control it from any interface but exposes the shades so that you can automatically close the shades when you arm the security system, start a movie, when it gets dark and open it when its morning or when you have finished watching your movie. You can also schedule the shades using Control4's wakeup / goodnight functionality, provide more fine tuned scheduling using Control4's When/Then or Chowmain's scheduler for T3 touchscreens. If you're heading to CEDIA Expo you should check the Nice guys out at booth 538. They have some excellent shades well worth looking at. Features IP and RS232 control / feedback Automatic import of motors and groups including automatic renaming. Scenes Motors Up Down Stop Level Intermediate Position Groups Up Down Stop Level Intermediate Position FAQ Does this provide two-way feedback? Feedback is provided live to Control4 via both IP and RS-232. If the customer changes the position of any shade it will update automatically on Control4's interface live! Also tells you the position as its moving for a nice added touch. Where can i purchase these shades? Check out the shades via the Nice website. https://niceforyou.com How do I find out more information about the driver? Please see the links below for more information about the driver. Chowmain Website How do I buy the driver? This driver is FREE of charge and can be downloaded from the Chowmain website. Who do i contact for technical support? This driver is supported by Nice Group.
  3. Thanks for the input. You're not the first to ask. Its on our roadmap but we have to redesign our plex full driver to suit the IRUSB controls which involve merging some code and some juggling of pieces. Not saying it is not going to happen Definately will but unsure when.
  4. Not entirely true. We created our own replacement Outlet Light driver which is compatible with advanced lighting scenes. Having said that bulbs have dimming capabilities where plugs / outlets are simple on/off. So whatever is suitable for the specific lamp.

  6. If you have a pirated version of Composer it will block remote access to your system as the certificates will have been changed. If this is the case you should back up your project, do a factory restore and restore your project.

  8. The Platinum Matrix driver should work with it but i would reach out to Blustream to confirm.
  9. I would look at why your HC800 is crashing. Migrating to a newer controller won't solve the problem if your project has problems.
  10. We are working on this at the moment. Will be released once firmware 2.0 gets released from Bond. https://bondhome.io/
  11. Max load on the HS110 is 13amps /2.99kw according to their spec sheet https://www.tp-link.com/uk/home-networking/smart-plug/hs110/#specifications
  12. No that is not correct. The Global Cache iTach adds an additional serial port to Control4's system with their driver.
  13. Note it has come to our attention that Daikin released a new. BRPXXXCXX model. Our driver is currently not compatible with this model. As such currently this driver is only compatible with the BRPXXXAXX and the BRPXXXBXX models.
  14. That is crazy that they haven't changed it yet. This change was implemented in Sky Q firmware Q060.000.28.00L which was released in December 2017. When this first came out we were inundated with support tickets, calls, emails, etc. Not something pleasant to wake up to on a Saturday i'll tell you that much. Anyway we logged in remotely to a system and after 2 hours of digging figured out that it was a simple port number change and pushed out updates to every site with the driver installed to ensure that no futher systems were effected. Since then we have posted 14 updates to the driver to add new functionality to support all our friends in the UK including our most recent update which is for OS 3.0 favourting
  15. Not quite sure what you're asking but if you are asking if the speaker acts as a Triad One type of device then no it is not. If you're asking can you use these speakers as an audio endpoint then yes. Especially if you use the line in for audio return from a TV or a similar usecase.
  16. Chowmain - FREE Lithe Audio Wifi Speaker driver Lithe Audio's innovative Wi-Fi ceiling speakers provide an all in one solution for multi-room music streaming. With the 60W RMS amplifier and Wi-Fi built-in, there's no need for speaker cables or servers. Simply set up your speakers via Airplay and you're good to go.

Features Supports SDDP Volume Up / Volume Down / Volume Set Mute On / Mute Off Play / Pause / Stop / Skip Previous / Skip Next Now Playing Meta Data Feedback (including cover art, title, album and artist) Now Playing Progress bar Automatic Room On / Automatic Room Off for streaming audio Aux Input switching FAQ What speakers will this driver work with? This driver will work on the Lithe Audio WiFi Multi Room Ceiling Speakers. http://www.litheaudio.com/wifi-multi-room-ceiling-speakers.html The Lithe app supports browsing of music services. Does the Control4 driver support this? The current version of the driver does not support this. It is being actively developed on and will be included in the next major update of the driver. Where can i purchase these speakers from? Please see the Lithe website for purchasing options. http://www.litheaudio.com How do I find out more information about the driver?

Who do i contact for technical support? This driver is supported by Lithe Audio.
  17. I honestly don't remember what i've got off the top of my head. Having said that the only reason why i went for it was because i have a good relationship with SnapAV and got mates rates for it. If i had to actually choose one unbiased then i would get the Hikvision cameras / NVR.
  18. Yeah we have quite a few dealers installing this along with our scheduler + weather drivers to make their own irrigation system. Scheduler gives end users time based control over it from their T3 touchscreens http://www.chowmainsoft.com/scheduler-control4-driver
  19. I bought a house with a Swann system in it. Ripped it out and replaced with SnapAV Luma and the difference is night and day. Having said that if you want something thats cheap and works the Swann stuff will work (though not through Control4).
  20. Unsure. You'll need to reach out to them about that sorry. They have some sort of online device library so thats how most people use it though you can also just learn individual codes yourself and map them.
  21. We are currently writing a driver for this product https://bondhome.io/ Which controls RF & IR based Fireplaces and Fans. This integration is based on a new API which they will be releasing shortly via a firmware update. Driver will be released when their firmware is released.
  22. The driver has minimum reached and maximum reached events. You should utilise these events to tell the Washing Machine experience button to change its state from on to off and vice versa. Note you will need to set the minimum and maximum properties to determine how much power your washing machine uses at idle and at an on state.
  23. Here it is for reference. https://chowmainsoft.com/ifttt
