It shows its communicating properly and the connections are made and the ring unit is selected under the secondary driver. If I do a debug, the button presses never seem to come through.

If everything is setup and assigned correctly and you see nothing in debug of the master driver then most likely the ring is offline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cybuch Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 I have the same issue, hasn't worked since day one, how long before we get an actual working driver? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin L Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Delete your drivers and install version 1.8.2 from here https://www.blackwiredesigns.com/help/ring-events-driver/ You must install these as a NEW driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should see video soon once Control4 fixes something on their end. Video history like what you get in the app is coming to the T3 as well as full control of things like the flood lights so they are a light switch in C4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seth_j Posted October 4, 2017 Author Share Posted October 4, 2017 Hmm.. reading your post and kevin's response I don't think he responded correctly. There is currently no way and I don't see a way in the future for you to record Ring video on to an NVR. Ring is a super low powered device created for a very specific purpose and not a generic mass-market security camera. If you need recordings Ring offers a paid version of recording already and I don't think they would cut into one of their sources of revenue and allow direct access for recording. Just doesn't make business sense to me. If that doesn't work for your project I suggest getting a standard security camera or one of the other doorbell brand that may work with an NVR.

I think he made it clear. I would love for their to be an option to use a NVR with Ring but I think more importantly I would like to be able to see the live feed from the C4 interface. @Kevin L will their be an upgrade path for users of the existing driver? Debating on whether to wait. I am getting the Ring floodlight cam tomorrow and want it to trigger my front porch lights if their is motion.

Weather there will be video on the TS is based in something being fixed with C4 software. Anyone who buys a driver now will most likely be upgraded for free with new features. You can trigger the lights with your camera with the current driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jfh Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 I am thinking of getting a Ring Elite because of the PoE connection. Does the driver support a direct button push event that doesn't require an active internet connection? In addition to doing whatever Ring actually does I would like to trigger C4 events even when my Internet connection is down. Right now I use an Axxess doorbell which works great, but would like video. Doorbird seems to pale compared to Ring and a DS2 is just crazy expensive.

I like my ring pro and it works well with control4. Ring is all cloud based so unless they change their api there will likely be no local communication For the money i like the ring solution and now with the Elite it is a formidable product. If you have a terrible internet connection that fails regularly you could connect a relay to the ring and the relay to a c4 contact and trigger the bell through that action and get an always able to ring event.

therockhr Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 I have a Ring Pro doorbell cam and a Ring Floodlight cam and both have been flawless for more. Wish C4 and Crestron could talk Ring into giving them a local API since they are premium products. I don’t get companies fascination with the cloud only solutions.

I would feel better if pushing the button could generate a local C4 event. Is the physical button accessible and designed so a contact can be added? Or how/where do you add the wiring?
