ILoveC4 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 You just bought the system and have no idea if it works with the system you already have (Control4)?Wouldn't it be easier to buy something that already works? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samsong Posted December 8, 2009 Author Share Posted December 8, 2009 well I got a good deal on it and ive been wanting for so long...I thought it was possible to create drivers for almost anything that was infrared ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samsong Posted December 8, 2009 Author Share Posted December 8, 2009 here is the remote controle for it...Do you think its a possibility for C4 to drive it ?http://www.elepro.net/breathe%20audio/images/Elevate-rmt-ley.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecodeman Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 You'll have to get a dealer to create a driver and get IR emitters at each keypad, but it's possible to use the C4 remote instead of the Breathe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveC4 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 IR is going to be pretty crumby in this situation though, you really need two way control for a distributed audio setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samsong Posted December 8, 2009 Author Share Posted December 8, 2009 why do you need 2 way control ? With the remote I can control all 4 zones from any individual keypad. If I get only 1 IR to any key pad, with a good driver, shouldnt this work well ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILoveC4 Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Two way control is nice for several reasons. With two way control you typically has discrete volume inputs, meaning you can set a default volume, etc... Control4 would know whether or not the Breathe Audio was actually on and what it was doing.Two way control just helps to eliminate a lot of the issues, and the "confusion" that can occur between two electronic devices when one actually doesn't know what state the other one is in. Control4 will assume that the last thing breathe audio did was what COntrol4 told it to do, when someone may have pressed a physical button or used the factory remote.That probably isn't a very good answer, and if that is confusing or doesn't make sense them I am sorry.
