    All of the drivers (including bulbs) poll for changes. As such it may take about 30 seconds or so to obtain feedback.
  2. alanchow
    Not if it requires login.

    Sounds like you have auto discovery enabled without a mac address entered in. Either disable it or enter in the correct mac address.

    I would look into why you need to restart. Get your dealer to contact Control4 technical support who will log into your system to check for memory leaks and cpu related problems. Could be anything from bad programming, poorly written drivers and more.

    Do you know if it attempts to launch Kodi when this happens. it is not supposed to turn the device on. It is just supposed to silently launch the app in the background. Also bettter to submit problems on helpdesk ticket or call us or our us helpdesk up for support. Hard to keep track of every thread on multiple forums.

    The page up and page down buttons are mapped to the page up and page down buttons in Kodi. You cannot disable this.

    MAJOR UPDATE Added Universal ControlByWeb driver. This driver will dynamically reconfigure itself based on the ControlByWeb device it is connected to to automatically add in all the relays and contacts it supports. Also adds in everything as a variable so you can program against it. This driver works perfectly for the X-400 device which can expand by addon modules and other ControlByWeb devices (upto 100 inputs/outputs over 32 modules connected to the X400)

    Great work Chris!

    We don't have it here in Australia. I am utilising a HS-300 purchased from the US. It is 110v only. The US is a big market for us so we have to support US only products

    Sorry our driver is outbound only.
  14. alanchow
    Yeah i am using ring as well. The motion sensing and doorbell events are quite handy. Doorbell events trigger a doorbell announcement wav file which triggers in all zones in my home. Motion triggers the front porch light. Pretty much as soon as i get a notification on my phone of doorbell ring or motion sense the programming fires in Control4.

    You will need to test your announcements to figure out which service is the one with the problematic key. Once you figure that out you can goto that services website to login to your account to figure out the problem. Otherwise you may need to sign up for a new key.
  16. alanchow
    The Ring Doorbell does not integrate with the T3 touchscreen for video or intercom functionality. It does however provide motion and doorbell events either by utilising the Blackwire Ring Events Driver or our IFTTT Maker driver.
  17. alanchow
    We can add it to our feature request list but at the moment we have about 13 contracts we need to finalise before CEDIA Expo.
  18. alanchow
    Our Kodi driver automates startup (via WOL) and shutdown (via Kodi's Shutdown API) of the driver on POWER ON and POWER OFF. I strongly suggest you utilise that as it is designed to handle the power management of the device. You should not program your Kodi HTPC to shut down at any other time as this will cause problems.
  19. alanchow
    This fault indicates that the API key is missing from the driver's properties page or the API key entered in is not valid.
  20. alanchow
    Your dealer will need to capture this in some logs and send it to us for troubleshooting. Best through the driverCentral ticketing system as that is manned by not just me but another 3 staff.
  21. alanchow
    Yeah my oldest daughter has been using this functionality since she was 3 on her wii.
  22. alanchow
    The power sensing on the outlet will automatically turn the system on and switch inputs. See the driver documentation for details.

    The Chowmain Notification Suite for Control4 allows dealers to program email and push notifications easily without the need to subscribe to any subscription based service. This driver was one of the first drivers we developed at Chowmain and over the years we have added plenty of functionality to it making it the best way to notify customers of events in their home. The driver is now 5 years old and we are now at the stage where we feel that we can give more to our customers by making the driver cheap enough that it can put into every project. As such we are proud to announce that we are reducing the MSRP price permanently of the Chowmain Notification Suite for Control4 by a whopping 50%. This is down from $100USD MSRP to $50USD MSRP. For more information about the Chowmain Notification Suite please see link below. https://www.chowmainsoft.com/notification-suite

    We haven't tested it with this model yet but i assume it'll be utilising the HS107 driver since that is a 2 plug outlet as well. You can find a list of all supported models via the product page on our website. https://www.chowmainsoft.com/tplink-control4 No idea. You should reach out to your local TP-Link representative to enquire about this.
  25. alanchow
    Our TP-Link suite now supports inwall switches, inwall dimmers, various outlets, powerboards and a whole range of smart bulbs including RGB bulbs and color temp bulbs. Really happy with the TP-Link range of products and will continue to integrate the products as they come out with new stuff.
