electrician9421 Posted January 24, 2016 Author Share Posted January 24, 2016 So no one has integrated these type of heaters with control4 before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaffle8 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 If you need just on/off control, why not use a c4 switch and then fire them up with relays? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electrician9421 Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 I need total control over them not just on off they are already integrated with and work on the lutron system just need to get them working on control4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaffle8 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 How about using a control4 thermostat and http://www.supplyhouse.com/Honeywell-Aube-RC840T-240-240v-Relay-w-Built-In-24V-Transformer?gclid=CK-45avVxcoCFYVFaQodCpwHag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funnyfarm299 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Everyone's overthinking this. There's a driver for IP or RS232 control of a Homeworks system. Then you can just add Dimmers, Keypads, Switches, Blinds, HVAC, and more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electrician9421 Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 I have the homeworks integrated already there is just nothing to set the heaters up under. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

electrician9421 Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 I have all the device numbers to use there is just nothing in control4 to set up as a heater that I can see to use on the onscreen navigator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried just throwing in a "Homeworks Dimmer" and addressing it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electrician9421 Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 yeah I can do that but it just shows up under lighting. I was hoping I could have it show up under comfort with and incon that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
