  1. This is avaialble now. If you are on the houselogix version then you will need to upgrade to the driverCentral version. If you are already on the driverCentral version then no need to do anything. It should have automatically updated. The hosting service comes with the driver cost so no additional fees apart from the driver purchase. At this stage there is no limits to how many you pictures you can upload. At this point in time the images are hosted indefinately. Once we get a good idea on how much resources it uses we will decide on how long images will live on our servers for. It's all under the hood. You won't notice anything different on any of our drivers but should just work.
  2. Ok we have now created our own image hosting service running on our own servers. Everyone who is on driverCentral will have an update pushed out to them within the next 24 hours. People who are on houselogix will need to upgrade to the driverCentral version.
  3. Hi guys, We discovered the issue and have resolved it. Have pushed out an update so the driver will automatically update itself within the next 24 hours. Please let me know if you encounter any further issues.
  4. Yep it'll work fine for what you want. It's only the image upload for pushover and chunk.io functionality that is effected.
  5. Yes Our SMTP driver attaches images to the email. No 3rd party services used. Its the best way of doing it to be honest. All of our updates will be uploaded to driverCentral. There is a changelog section for each product which we use as well to advise of any driver updates Deciantsart was the service we used before chunk.io. I am starting to think we may need to create our own service to stop breakage going forward.
  6. Push safer does offer iOS, android and windows 10 applications. It is a premium service but the image uploads are hosted in their own internal server.
  7. Unfortunately the issue is with image uploading. We are investigating alternative services for now. pushsafer is a premium service so you need to pay sorry
  8. We recently discovered that chunk.io has deliberately broken our access to their stuff. in the meantime please use the pushsafer driver as this has native image upload built in.
  9. For whole home energy monitoring we have two solutions. You can use he eGauge which has 10 CT clamps and is IP based. Our driver has minimum and maximum triggers on each circuit so you can program what to do when it exceeds those values. You can also use the Saturn South products which is Zigbee based and have either a single clamp or three clamps. Again our driver has a minimum and maximum trigger on each clamp. if however you want to monitor an individual outlet then I recommend using the belkin wemo insight switch. Our driver has minimum and maximum triggers on it as well plus you can auto select devices. This is useful for no control devices such as Playstation, Xboxes, etc. Control4 will auto select the device when it detects that it has left an idle state and will auto turn off the room if it is still the selected device when it returns to an idle state. anyway if you guys want to talk energy feel free to reach out. one of the companies I am a part of specialises in energy management for utilities.
  10. Chowmain - Scheduler app The Scheduler webview driver for Control4 provides end users with the ability to schedule pre-setup presets/macros via Control4’s T3 touchscreen and T4 touchscreen along with Control4’s iPhone, iPad or Android based applications. We have designed the scheduler to look, feel and operate in a similar manner to the Control4 thermostat scheduler. As such not only is it very functional but the UI feels and operates like a Control4 interface. The driver allows you to setup a repeating schedule which will repeat on a weekly basis or setup a one off schedule that will only operate once and will remove or disable itself after it executes. This adds a missing feature from the Control4 home automation system that dealers have sought after for years and provides end users the ability to schedule without having to utilise the Control4 Composer Home Edition software for PC or by using when / then. An infinite amount of Presets/Macros can be setup by the dealer to suit the customer’s lifestyle and Control4 system. For example you can create Sprinklers On and Sprinklers Off presets or for a commercial job they can setup a shop open and shop close schedule. Features Compatible with T3 touchscreens T4 touchscreens iOS (iPhone / iPad) app Android app Dealers can add in an infinite amount of preset macros. Consumers have full control over the scheduler from their T3 touchscreen. They can Add a schedule in to fire a preset macro. Enable/Disable a schedule from running Delete a schedule Schedules can be once off schedules or can repeat every week for any day / time. FAQ Can you give us some examples of how we could use this driver? Customers finally have the ability to add schedules to their Control4 system without using Composer Home Edition. Setup a schedule for your sprinklers Setup a schedule for commerical (opening hours, closing hours, etc) Schedule those lights to turn on/off at different times Schedule fireplaces, fans and other devices to turn on when you want to. Schedule pool pumps to clean the pool Schedule fountains and other water features. Why should i use this over Composer Home Edition? This is not a replacement for Composer Home Edition. Not all end users want to learn how to program their system using Composer Home Edition. Our scheduler will allow them to easily manage scheduling for anything connected to Control4 via the Control4 touchscreens or apps. What hardware will this work on? Works on all T3 & T4 touchscreens.

  12. Our Yeelight driver for Control4 is probably the best bang for buck solution. $50.00 MSRP for the driver. Wifi based 2-way control over RGBW functionality with full dimming and color change. https://www.drivercentral.io/platforms/control4-drivers/yeelight-control4-driver-chowmain/ $29.99 for each strip (no Hub required.

  14. if you hold the buttons down it will achieve this until you let go at 8x speed otherwise it'll do the small step fwd / back.
  15. I just want to add that without the support of paying customers we honestly can't do this as a business so it would be silly for us to not support those who support us:) So we do everything we can do to make those who have bought licences off of us happy.
  16. Yep it is not manditory for you to migrate. You can just do nothing and it'll work forever even if houselogix were to shut shop (which they arn't). We are committed to supporting those who have purchased off of us hence why we are offering migration for those who want to update their drivers to the latest versions.
  17. We are working on migration of all licences purchased from Houselogix to driverCentral. Your dealer will need to install the driverCentral cloud driver and manually update the driver you have purchased on houselogix to the driverCentral version). After that its all automatic. When we issue an update the cloud driver will detect that you are running an older version and update it to the latest. At this stage apart from migration to the new marketplace there are no new functionality so it is safe to keep using the houselogix versions. We will be releasing 3 or 4 new drivers to coincide with CEDIA Expo though so keep your eyes peeled on the forums or our social media.

  19. With the variable manipulator you can do this using os.time() and os.date().
  20. UPDATE The IntesisBox driver for Control4 now includes 10 x zone relay bindings which can be named. This makes damper based zone control extremely easy to control with full 2 way feedback of relay states in the Thermostat interface.
  21. Thanks for the feedback. Its something we wanted to do originally but Control4's Media Service Proxy didn't notify us if it where the request came from (watch or listen). As such we couldn't actually implement this. Its definately something i'd like to do if i can figure it out.
  22. Glad to hear you like it. It's definately a favourite amongst the british:)
