Finally, I'm getting the Control4 system setup & programmed the way I want. Matt does it all. He fixed some programming problems from the initial install, expanded the functionality (hardware & software) and eliminated over 50% of the original code. Very knowledgeable and quick to respond. Will certainly continue to rely on him! Thanks again Matt!!

I'm upgrading a Tekmar hydronic heating system in my house. Included in the upgrade is adding wall and floor temperature sensors so I can install the new thermostats out of sight in the boiler room. I see HouseLogix has Control4 drivers for the Tekmar 482 RS232 Gateway (software vendor is Cinegration) and the Tekmar 485 Internet gateway (software vendor unknown). Both appear to offer C4 control of Tekmar thermostats. Any idea of what the differences are from a Control4 perspective, either functionality (esp. for thermostats) and/or user interface and/or software vendor reputation? Recommendations? thanks

Is there any way/trick to: 1. Programmatically display the weather page and/or 2. Keep the weather page displayed instead of timing out and going back to the main page? thanks!

Late to the party but if you hover the mouse over each line of "Turning the screen off ", at least Composer HE will identify the room involved. Of course room and/or thermostat name should be displayed in line of code but it isn't. Maybe they will add it in a future release.

+1,000 Inability to print/export/search code is the biggest flaw in the HE programming environment. Surprising how primitive HE is but it's WAY better than nothing.

Windows LIVE is not installed anywhere. Thanks for reply.

Thanks you for your response. Yes, it's turned on. I earn my living in IT so I understand the issues. The Windows 8.1 machine is successfully serving many files to many applications for many users on many different machines. C4 support admitted the problem is on their end and they've known about it forever but have no intention of correcting it or publicly documenting it. Not what I'd hope for from any IT company!

Same problem here on Windows 8.1 Pro with all current updates. Trying to get a HC800 controller to retrieve music from a Windows 8.1 machine acting as a dedicated server. The HC800 sees the relevant shares but fails authentication. On Friday, my dealer and I spent a couple of hours on the phone with C4 support without any success. C4's formal response was they don't support network file sharing using Windows 8.1 and apparently has no intention of doing so. Hard to understand C4's position. I'm open to almost any solution other than buy another server but so far, no success.
