msgreenf Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I am thinking I might try to integrate Amazon Dash buttons next https://medium.com/@edwardbenson/how-i-hacked-amazon-s-5-wifi-button-to-track-baby-data-794214b0bdd8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakeItAMudLight Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 This would be awesome. I have three of them but haven't used them but a couple of times as Amazon doesn't carry the variety of the products we use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 the biggest challenge is trying to figure out how to see the ARP requests in Control4.....without needing a 2nd server to do this, like a RPI. But I might do it with an RPI for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMHarman Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 One of the comments on the article talked of using the router to capture traffic from the Mac and redirect to an internal ipCould you use that to trigger. Of course that makes this a router specific toy. Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I might do it with an RPI for now There is no ARP functions in Control4. You will need to build it (parse) yourself at the packet level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bsmall423 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Did anyone ever end up doing anything with the Dash buttons? Or has everyone moved on to Alexa and letting her order things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanE Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 I suspect there hasn't been a lot done, because it's not all that useful to use a single button that says 'Tide' to toggle your lights. RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitaltrader Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 It would make a great button to use in the garage or outside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanchow Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 I just use one of these http://r.ebay.com/U7RPJB Have enough spare contacts so just hook the relays upto it and program the contacts to do stuff when they close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
