I use the shelly 4-channel module on a few projects and at home and they work as intended. Keep in mind it is a wifi device and not a fast one so be sure you have a solid network if it is a critical load. also if for lighting I prefer dimming control so this not for me.

Control 4 and static electricity

Shield tv is imo the best solution out there. albeit one of the more expensive solutions. beyond that fire tv has had a shaky history. Anything else is just taking chances. -

I have not integrated these before. I would imagine the best solution would be to get a system you would like that has dry contact control. Then with relays and contact sensors you can control the system externally. Normal operation should be unaffected if the integration or control from the control4 side ceases to function.

Garage Door Opener and Control4 MyQ Integration
Matt Lowe replied to Carter Hobson's topic in General Control4 Discussion
We just installed two Ratgdo controllers yesterday. It was fairly painless but you need to have a computer with good USB drivers. a cheap Windows 11 laptop yesterday could not properly connect to them. My more expensive feature-rich model could for whatever reason without having to do anything extra. Driver by Chowmain is fantastic too allow you to setup a lot of features with out any programming needed to be done at all. -
Replacing our awful control4 lighting system
Matt Lowe replied to Marsh's topic in Troubleshooting, Workarounds, & Bugs
What specific issues are you experiencing? Very likely that some the issues will cause future lighting system to have the same result. -

I havent been inside this unit before but i would imagine its not likely a simple swap.

can you send a screen shot of what you are looking at?

I believe the driver is set up to just use the relay module. but through some programming, you could use the dimmer I'm sure.

Android: Connect Purchase required to log in
Matt Lowe replied to Andrew H's topic in Troubleshooting, Workarounds, & Bugs
you also need to register the controller with the older method and not with ovrc. -

Android: Connect Purchase required to log in
Matt Lowe replied to Andrew H's topic in Troubleshooting, Workarounds, & Bugs
this would be better suited to the dealer discussions. It is not required until April 23rd for new systems and existing systems will be grandfathered for the time being. -
C4-LU1E compatible Baluns in South Africa
Matt Lowe replied to donnyberg's topic in Troubleshooting, Workarounds, & Bugs
most any standard hdbt balun will work. likely ir pass through and the serial will cease to function and you will likely have to power it locally at the display side. -

the favorites are just a toggle. You could create lighting scenes and favorite those.

Backlight macros for garage door
Matt Lowe replied to drmark12pa's topic in Troubleshooting, Workarounds, & Bugs
yes likely just the zigbee network being flooded. Just try doing a group of devices delay 5 seconds then another group delay another. keep breaking them up into smaller groups until you get the desired results. unless the zigbee project is absolutely massive 3-4 groups should do well.
