  1. I stand by what I say its a load of @&:& whats worse is that C4 implementation of it is disastrous. 2N makes the device and the device itself is incredible. C4 go with their crap driver and completely destroy it by limiting what it can do and resetting any settings you set on it via the web interface.
  2. Ds2 is worse currently I am on the latest OS, lates ds2 firmware latest driver. Everytime someone rings the door bell the hole system freezes and I have to go hard reboot the system. Its just cr@p
  3. Hi all Hoping I read the last update release or change log right. Situation : I have a live in domestic worker / helper. Her TV etc is on the C4 system. I want to install the app on her phone but want to limit: 1. To her room only 2. To Monday to Fridays Is this possible? If so where do I start looking?
  4. Hi all, I need to find a “system” to key in a code and it opens a relay for a garage door or other door. Now this isnt a normal keypad at a gate its more for I have garden workers and house domestic sometimes they need to get i to my garage etc and I wanted a system that intergrated into my C4. I refuse to buy another DS2 its the biggest waste of money I have every spent on tech. Any suggestions?
  5. Why cant you just amazon it from the usa to the uk. Or do they only sell through dealers? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
  6. Man this makes it so much easier have been delaying blinds for two months now cause Somfy in South Africa couldn't tell me which bridge of theirs I needed for C4. Does this allow opening to 45% etc or just open and closed?
  7. Ohhh I like this! So if I understand correctly: 1. You get the blinds with the Somfy motors which works with their normal Somfy remotes. 2. Get the bond device 3. Use your driver Be happy I can control the blinds on any navigator and program in composer? Question: Do you need one bond device per Somfy motor ?
  8. Seeing we in the same country what module did they use to intergrate the motors to c4 :-) makes it easier for me to spec Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
  9. Oh dam there I was thinking that Somfy was ***the*** best integration into c4 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
  10. Then won't be available in South Africa. Gotta try find what they use here then to do the Somfy to c4 intergration Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
  11. Thank you! Is the wireless device I linked above the right one to buy?
  12. Hi all, I am about to buy new blinds that can be fitted with Somfy blind motors. Just wanted to check that the only thing I would need to intergrate them into C4 would be : https://www.somfysystems.com/en-us/products/smart-home-controls/smart-home/automation-systems/control4 myLink[emoji3481] WiFi to RTS The myLink[emoji3481] RTS Smartphone and Tablet Interface is a WiFi to Radio Technology Somfy[emoji2401] (RTS) bridge that can control up to 16 channels of RTS motorized products. With the Somfy myLink apps for iOS and Android, users can control individual channels of RTS products and create scenes and schedules. The Somfy myLink Driver for Control4 gives Control4 systems access to RTS channels and scenes programmed by the Somfy myLink app. Does this convert the RF signal I to wifi for the C4 drivers to communicate to them? Also are the default Somfy drivers in composer or does one have to buy specific drivers? Thank you for the advise
  13. Hi All, Just a quick question, in the programming of a DS2 which function is used for when someone presses the door bell. I want to fire an announcement when the door bell is pressed. However I dont want to lose the fact it calls on my T3's etc. I know in the properties you can set the Call button for programming only but then I lose the call on my T3's. Appreciate the guidance.
  14. I hear you but its not designed to use dynamic IP its identified in the system through the network and the install docs specify it has to be a static address
  15. Hi all, I am on the latest OS I have two EA5s once a week randomly the director becomes unresponsive, composer cant connect neither does any of the devices respond. I have to do a hard reboot. Anything I can check any log files i can enable or read?
  16. @South Africa C4 user do you have your Samsungs working with IP control in South Africa?
  17. Here is my view after testing quite a few different manufactures: Figure out what technology you going to support: 4k / 8k, QLED, LED ettc Manufactures on the actual panel technology are pretty similar the difference comes with integration functionality It does depend on actual region ( physical location US, EU, Asia) Point three is important. Good example: Samsungs are great TV's but unless you are in the USA and very few regions around the world you are limited to IR control and cant use the IP control. The IP control on Samsungs mostly works on firmware for the USA. Most EU and rest of the world this functionality is turned off and you stuck with simple IR control. For me the best out of Samsung, LG, Hisense, Sony that I have tested is the LG with the Annex driver. Why: The driver just works and with IP The mini apps drivers are awesome (to call up apps installed on the TV) and you can create your own on their website - so greater flexibility The LG panels are (again depending on which review you read) the best The additional functionality of the toast notifications with the Annex drive is really neat feature. LG are constantly updating their OS software compared to my Samsung's in the house. They add features with the updates the Samsung updates when they do come seem to be more just stability updates. Having said all of the above, all the TV's work in my house hold and I have LG, Samsung, Hisense and Sony. My best experience that I have is the LG.
  18. I think I read that the new Nvidia shield doesn't work well with IRUSB. I may be wrong but before I buy a few more of the new models, does IRUSB still work with chowmain driver as it did with the previous model?
  19. Hi all, I have some TV's around the house and have these small Android TV Boxes that run Android 7.1 and above on these TV's. Now on my main TV's I have Nvidia Shields and it works perfectly with the IRUSB and the chowmain driver. The question is there any drivers to interact / control these cheap Android TV boxes? They all run Android TV.
  20. Thats so cool thank you Is there a driver to add ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
  21. Hi all There a bunch of appliances (washing machines, tumble dryer etc) that all connect to the home network. They connect using home-connect - https://www.home-connect.com/global , is there a driver anyone knows to integrate with this?
  22. Hi all, I have a light that is plugged into a Tp-link wall switch using Alan's Tp-link driver. I can see the switch in the navigators but it doesn't come up as a light (of course). How does one bind the relay of the switch to a light which driver can I use for that? The outcome is I want the light to show as a light and not a switch. Thank you
  23. Maybe an app bug or update bug: 1. Open app on ios (its up to date) 2. Go to cameras 3. It is very snappy 4. Open a camera (all this works) 5. Press arrow top left to go back to all the other cameras App exits. Rebooted devices tried again same issue. Drivers for cameras: X6 Cameras via BlueIris commercial driver X5 Cameras Chowmains Wyze Camera driver
