I wouldn’t be surprised if these were shopped around and pitched to C4 first and they passed.

Thanks ...please let me know

That would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I have roughly 100 Gen1 dimmer and switches that I need to change from light Almond to white. Anyone know where I can source these?

Does this mean they will support their own SIP compliant V1 Doorstation? Probably not, which would be embarrassing.

Probably broken because no one at C4 uses the MyMovies agent any longer.

What controllers do you recommend for a distributed system that have the range to work long distances?

I believe Irrigation is taken into account via the buoy, however I have mine installed after the irrigation system and have the hunter hydra wise system with flow meter.

Buoy Water has a great solution I have been using for a year with success. There is no control4 integration yet but it’s not needed. It can tell what appliance is using water and track usage. You can have it automatically turn off the valve on a leak detection and also open it back up remotely. So far it’s been great. It will even monitor your irrigation. Their product can be found at buoy.ai

It never worked properly in an environment with >5 touch screens

Did it die an early death or did control4 release a faulty product that never worked properly?

When I installed my door station I was told a future update would iron out the bugs and allow it to work properly. I am still waiting a door-station that works reliably...the next OS was my hope after years of slow progress without true resolution. I’d challenge anyone demonstrate a v1 doorstation working reliably with at least 6 touch screens in the same environment (I have 12). I have no issue needing to upgrade....however C4 abondoned the V1 doorstation before it was working reliably. Likely because it was a faulty product to begin with. They just wore down the warranty clock and hoped users would forget.

Looks like you just need to upgrade your hardware. Swap all the lights for the new generation and everything should work properly

I would’ve been much more forgiving at the original product actually worked as advertised and they had integrated it properly to begin with. I have been waiting for the day and software update that made this work as promised by my original dealer. I’m now being told that will never happen. I would be willing to upgrade to a new more modern technology had it been just a pop in and pop out solution. It sounds like Control4 is not considering their customers in their new product design. How hard is it to consider product dimensions when creating a replacement product? Truthfully I will not be going with a Control4 product going forward and be searching for a third-party from now on. I will let Control4 be the backbone of the system until something else more promising comes along. I will be willing to stay with Control4 for only the backbone of the system only.

Mine has nothing to do with upgrading controllers. I am more than willing to upgrade a controller in order to upgrade a system. It’s the ripping out of fixed items like a door station that require specialized masonry work. The door station had a single job to relay audio within my system. Why can I not continue to do so and upgrade into the future. I have no problem paying prices to upgrade controllers in order to get the latest software. It’s the inability to take a long fixed items like a door station. We are not comparing the same.
