    RAV got a reaction from Control4Savant in OS3.4.2   
    I just called tech support for clarification.
    An old account upgrading to a Core DOES NOT have to pay for Connect and may fully update to the latest OS!!
    Connect ONLY triggers at creation of a new account, and does so for ALL new accounts regardless of processor or OS!
    Home sold systems need to either have the previous owner do a change of email to the new owners, or new owners will HAVE to pay Connect for a new account, even for an HC running 2.10.6.
    In theory there is a resale value to dead accounts.

    RAV got a reaction from IBZICON in Modern Forms Ceiling Fan   
    You could bypass the fan output of the Control4 Fan Speed Controller essentially turning it into a KC120 and run the hot direct to the new fan.
    Then reprogram the buttons as you'd like. But I don't think you'll be able to 'add' an up/down to the fan controller driver in composer.

    But no the KCB is not a choice as it's 48v power and RS485 for panelized lighting. KC120 would be the choice.

    RAV got a reaction from Matt Lowe in Control 4 and static electricity   
    If you have standard wall plates with screws, you should be able to discharge yourself by touching the plate screw first.
    Maybe snapoff the screwless plate for a bit to confirm issue as it'll expose the screws.
    Humidifier can help.

    Put a Shelly relay inside the box and use the outlet vendor of your choice.

    RAV got a reaction from BY96 in Roku apps no longer launching   
    Our Engineering Team has been working directly with Roku to resolve this issue. With this engagement, Roku has identified the cause and has been rolling out a solution since last evening. It should be complete by the end of the day today, April 5th.
    The fix to restore service will be automatic—neither you nor your customers will need to take action. We are monitoring the rollout of the fix to confirm that the issue has been fully resolved.

    RAV got a reaction from Matt Lowe in Open Garage door to specific point   
    Why not add a dryer style duct with a fan with a temp sensor?

    Less critters and security issues.

    Two buttons.
    Open/Close -
    toggle door, set variable gap to false
    Gap -
    Set variable gap to true, open door.
    Sensor programming - when gap sensor closes: If variable gap is true, stop door.

    RAV got a reaction from neil12011 in Chowmain - ratgdo driver for Chamberlain / Liftmaster integration   
    ...or a virtual Sensor driver.

    Attach virtual Sensor to a standard garage door driver to provide status.
    Run a macro when any door opens, if all closed set virtual sensor to closed, if any open set to open
    If Garage All is open when tapped, run macro close doors (if door 1 open close, if door 2 open close etc)

    Can be done using an actual relay and contact input. Use the relay to set the 'sensor' through programming. Would be preferable not to loose 2 IO.

    Respectfully, you’re going in circles.

    You would have to put it in a outdoor switch type box. It's an indoor keypad, can be AC or DC powered.

    RAV got a reaction from SpencerT in Dual Load Switch For North America   
    Shelly is a relay (or dimmer) that sits on the WiFi instead of the Zigbee mesh like Control4's devices.
    Rather than deal with color and style, the button part is separate, and user provided, and is optional.
    The button part has options in setup as to how it will behave. Visit Link: https://www.facebook.com/legacy/notes/2331082316991119/
    Typically if you wish to maintain an in room physical type switch, then you use the EDGE option (see link).
    This toggles the load each time the switch is flipped, in use it feels like a 3 way switch setup in that up is neither on nor off, but simply the opposite of what the relay is now.
    Regardless of whether the light was turned on by Shelly App or Control4 then the next flip of the wall switch wired to the relay will change the light to the opposite state it is in now.
    And therefore the Shelly App and Control4 can each still toggle the light regardless of the physical switch or the app used.
