I didn’t notice any update for my devices, entire project took like 15m-20m except this wild T3 My dealer said there was a zigbee update as part of the OS3.3 update. Each of my lighting circuits (around 100 of them) flashed on and off (at least) once over a 2 hour period, so I am pretty sure that he was right and there was a Zigbee update as part of the release… but I may be wrong! All stable now. Edited June 8, 2022 by South Africa C4 user Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure but I know my dealer had to change something on my mesh (I think multiple APs are no longer allowed on the same server) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All stable now. I was curious to understand what is the C4 ZB lights u have, All I have is penalized C4 Dimmers/Relays in addition to few Puck Dimmers/Relays, I didn’t notice any delay after the Main controller went online and started upgrading rest of project components, I can’t tell myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amr Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Is it only me or the local C4 IOS and Android apps are much faster with 3.3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAV Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Gen3 lighting get firmware updates (and sr260 and 0-10 panel module) - release notes don't say why or what bugs were addressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topfox Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 So does this mean the Core controllers are out as well? What are the price points on those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drmark12pa Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 So what exactly is new/better in 3.3? I wish Control4 would issue a document so end users know what is new or worth updating. I would assume going from 3.2.x to 3.3 would be significant in some manner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo1738 Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 I think for end users really color wheel. I'm sure optimizations. Not sure what the lighting update was but my keypads and lights reset over hrs. after update was done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanDad Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Anyone know what happened to the battery agent that we saw previewed months ago ? Displayed the battery levels of all your battery devices (shades, remotes etc.) all on one screen. Any update ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff W Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 In order to use the new color wheel your RGBW / Tunable white fixtures need 3.3.0 drivers that are built for the new light proxy. Depending on which drivers you're using you may need to replace/re-install a simple update may not be possible. Once you have the new drivers installed / configured you can go to lighting. Any new drivers will have a slider, a light icon with a small colored circle beside the light. If you press and hold on the light bulb you'll bring up additional options, and features including the color wheel. Chowmain released an email/update with their drivers that are compatible. Domaudeo's DMX driver has been updated as well and available from black wire designs. The Domaudeo's DMX lighting has been completely revamped and improved, you'll need to replace/re-install. That's what I'm using and being shown below. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff W Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 When you favorite a RGBW or tunable white fixture to the room. The system can tell if the fixture is doing RGBW or tunable white coloring and it can adjust your favorite room icon between a fixture with RGBW bulb or a tunable white bulb. Pretty cool detail! The bulb is also different from the standard lighting icon, it looks like a LED bulb. More cool details.

Amr Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Man, color wheel integration is super nice, much better than any other solution! Costed me some real cash as I had 15 light loads that had to be completely removed and added back! msgreenf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C4 User Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 My system was upgraded today and I have to say I love the color wheel integration with both Hue and LIFX lights. It took about 5 hours for all my devices to update and a few hours of reprogramming the hue and lifx lights - and the related C4 switches/dimmers. From what I can tell so far, this is an exciting leap forward for C4. Has to be the most significant update in the 14 plus years I’ve had C4. Can’t wait to see what comes next.

More significant than 2.0 and 3.0?! I love the excitement, and the new color wheel, but man…I think back to what I got in 2006 and it almost doesn’t feel like the same system!

Zigbee Pro was a big upgrade in overall user experience. And the EA controller series over the HC1000 and 300’s, and Gen 2/3 over the Gen 1. But I do not recall being this excited about a new feature. I have been waiting for integrated color for years now. While I have a lot of Hue and LIFX lights, within a year, they will all be Hue or LIFX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drmark12pa Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Can someone post a picture of this "color wheel" or where exactly it's located as I have no idea where this shows up and I have 3.3 with LIFX bulbs as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
