mgakathereaper Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 I am new to Control4 but currently have the HC-500 and the 10.5" V2 Touch panel and I have been learning the past couple of days. I have a few questions about the 10.5" Touch panel GUI.- The touch panel by default has static screens for different types of components so "TV" has default buttons, "Satellite" has default buttons and so on- My question is, can you Add/Subtract/Change the default touch buttons?- For example, can I change the "PVR" button in the Satellite screen to another name? Can I remap the "PVR" button to another command? Can I remove the "PVR" button? Can I add another button to this default screen?- I know you can add Custom Buttons (4 groups of 6 for a total of 24) but those don't modify the default screen, they simply add new windows that open up. These custom buttons are pretty bland and not very sexy but that is besides the point.Thanks in advance for you input.MG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgakathereaper Posted December 5, 2008 Author Share Posted December 5, 2008 HenniaeThat was quick and to the point. Thanks for the confirmation. I will have to utilize the custom button functionality to add additional buttons.Thx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henniae Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 There is the hospitality suite version of C4 that has this feature, but as of this time it is not available in the consumer version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgakathereaper Posted December 5, 2008 Author Share Posted December 5, 2008 That looks very nice. I need to get my hands on something like that... Any roadmaps by Control4 showing this trickling down to the consumer level? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecodeman Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 The hospitality interface is SOO MUCH BETTER than the current one. Dont get me wrong the power shield is cool and all but hospitality looks more 2008 and the regular one, well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgakathereaper Posted December 5, 2008 Author Share Posted December 5, 2008 So my next question would be, if the Hospitality interface available and at what price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanE Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 As I posted in another thread, yes, it is likely that Control4 will update the residential Navigator to be more similar to the Hospitality Navigator.It is currently not on a publically-published release schedule. i.e we're not posting about when it'll be available.RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecodeman Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 So, if you'd like to enjoy the interface, please stay at one of the hotels that offer the Control4 / LodgeNet experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henniae Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 So my next question would be' date=' if the Hospitality interface available and at what price?[/quote']No, hospitality only.I have some friends, I mean customers staying at my house next weekend. That should qualify me as a bead-n-breakfast. Additionally I am being hospitable to these friends, I mean customers. I think this might qualify as providing services in the hospitality industry. Sign me up, where do I download? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanE Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Yeah, good luck with that.RyanEP.S. If you want to convert your 5000 room bed-and-breakfast, give me a call. I'm sure I can swing you a copy of the Hospitality release... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inELEC Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 I guess that the functionality isn't as complete or at least different from the edition we know, which is why C4 would need some time to adapt the new interface to cater for the more complex and varying use of their home systems.Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
