nwanerka Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Has anyone tried the Aladdin garage door connect? I heard that there are drivers for it for c4 and that it does work but I have not seen anything on taptalk about it. Can anyone help?

msgreenf Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 I installed it this weekend in my home! What's the question?Sent from my Pixel 3a XL using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwanerka Posted September 10, 2020 Author Share Posted September 10, 2020 Can it be integrated into C4? Basically I want to be able to control it from the app or a touch screen or even program one of the multi switches also will it show up On a touch screen and show its open or close? Tank you in advance for the answers to the questions I really do appreciate itSent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is like the nest driver - you install it. Generate a Genie URL and authenticate it to Genie. THen generate a control4 URl and authenticate it to Control4. 1 hour ago, nwanerka said: Basically I want to be able to control it from the app or a touch screen or even program one of the multi switches also will it show up On a touch screen and show its open or close? yup! that works without issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwanerka Posted September 10, 2020 Author Share Posted September 10, 2020 That is great news. Thank you very much. I picked up 4 Aladdin connect kits from my local home depot for $29 each. Before taxThank you again for your help Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 yeah! The only downside I Have seen from aladdin is the integration points vs MyQ. If you want Amazon to deliver to your garage that is not possible, which I think I am ok with losing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nwanerka Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 Here is another point. If you already have a garage door with built in myq and like everyone else, the integration is dead. You can't just add the aladdin connect and have your integration again. Because myq is unit security 2.0 you can't use aladdin connect to control that myq door. You will be able to see it on your touch screens and mobile devices and it will let you know when it's open and closed but no control. I just bought the c4 garage door bundle and it arrived today. So hopefully this weekend I will have it installed on my own garage door that is a chamberlain model with myq built in. If it works I will report back and also start to offer this solution to my customers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Overhead Door brand and need to replace the zwave openers I used before switching to C4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simple AV Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 I have this connected to C4 but the issue I have is the status doesn't get updated when I manually open the garage. Anyone have that issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
