Many transformers for outdoor lighting come in metal enclosures. It's a one piece unit, so changing to plastic isn't really an option.
Inside there's typically a plug (outlet) for the transformer where you would put a timer. in place of the old analog timer you could use a WEMO and instantly connect the outside lights to C4.
so I’ve updated to an outdoor Kasa and it works great because it’s outside the box, BUT the C4 integration is not great. C4 turns it on but the icon does not turn in in the C4 app. Also C4 won’t turn it off. Is this a Kasa C4 integration issue?

I upgraded my wifi kasa to zigbee and my issues went away. The zigbee outdoor module is what I'm using and it sits outside the metal enclosure.
Can I ask how you update the Wi-Fi Kasa to zigbee?

So my moenflo and rachio is now working as planned.
Both have c4 drivers and I put the flo to sleep when the irrigation runs.
I'll probably get smarter with the programing later. Capture flo status as a variable and then return to original status after irrigation runs.
Also with lights or security you can set flo to away when security or motion or other devices do the same. If front door locked and motion sensors detect no motion for 24 h put flo to away.
When door unlocked put flo to home.
How do you put the flo to sleep when irrigation on? I get so many alerts and water shut off over night because of irrigation.
Thank you in advance. -

I’ve done that but it drops the Wi-Fi signal and I lose connection periodically. It’s very hit or miss. So I’m trying to figure a way to keep a better connection.

Hi All,
i have 2 metal landscape enclosure boxes outside. 1 in the front and 1 in the rear landscaping. They both have a Wemo switch which connects to my C4. Unfortunately my rear landscaping Wemo switch losses Wi-Fi signal constantly. If I put it in my front enclosure it works just fine. Is there a better switch or one I can mount outside of the metal enclosure so as not to lose signal? I also tried the TP-link switch but same issue.
Thank you in advance. -
Yeah my dealer can’t get there or the Kwikset locks. Any other options?

Hi all,
I have the yale real living locks in my house and need to get some more. I was wondering if they are still the best for integration with C4 or are there better options available?
TIA

then it probably needs to be reidentified in composer or something.
I asked my programmer who said it’s not a reidentificstion issue. It’s just a connection.

It’s blinking green. I’m at a loss of what to do.

Are you connecting the Honeywell alarm to a C4 controller via a serial cable? If so, one solution can be to simply power-cycle the controller that it is connected to. This happens to me once in a long while. A power-cycle of the EA-1 that is connected to my Honeywell alarm panel almost always fixes it. Sometimes rebooting the primary EA-5 controller can also knock my alarm offline; rebooting the downstream EA-1 is the solution here too.
I hope this helps.
It stopped working when we had a power outage and return of power. In the past it would always take a few hours after a power cycle to come back online but this time just hasnt come back. Ive rebooted multiple times but still no luck. My alarm company check the alarm and its still online. I only run an EA-5. No other controllers.

Hi all,
I had connected my honeywell home alarm with the Vista years ago and it worked perfect for years. Recently it went offline and I cannot get it back. Is there anyone here who might be able to get me back online?
Thank you in advance.

Looking to see user experience with this and thoughts on it. Was wondering if it is worth it. Thank you in advance.

Hi all,
I have the original C4 native thermostats and was wondering if any of the new thermostats had clearly been declared a favorite? I know many like Nest and others Ecobee. My HVAC guy thinks Ecobee in general is just not good quality. Thoughts are appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi all,
Im having a problem in a particular room with the default volume. Its only in that room that anytime I start music it goes to volume 100. Its crazy. Ive localized it to 1 wall switch that if I tap it to turn up or down the volume it also goes straight up to 100. Can you tell me where I can change this default setting?
Thanks in advance.

Hi all,
I am using some of my Amazon playlists via sonos. I can set them as a default to play but I can’t figure out how to get them to shuffle? I can do it for other sources but just not for this. Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Hi all, I had posted about two years ago and was seeing if there were any updates available for the Pentair integration. In the past I had my Pentair connected through Amazon Alexa which made it very convenient to have an echo dot poolside and just ask it to do whatever I needed. Unfortunately Pentair is no longer integrated with Alexa and now anytime I want to make any change on my set up I need to open the Pentair app which is a bit cumbersome in today’s age. Has anyone figured out a quick access to control poolside features without having to open apps constantly? Thanks in advance

Can you integrate Apple Music into C4?

What am I doing wrong here?
Play on Rack>>House Sonos
Select the House Sonos as the audio in the Dining Room
Select Sonos Favorite Archie on Rack>House Sonos
Dining>Current volume 15

Hi All,
We had a power outage the other day and since then my T3 TS is frozen on the same screensaver picture. It responds to my touch commands and still controls things but when the screensaver activates after 15seconds, it just goes back to the same picture. Its no longer a slideshow. I cant figure out how to fix this. Any help is appreciated.
TIA.

Hi all,
I’m trying to shut off the LED lights on my switch at night since the light is just too bright. I can choose colors but don’t know how to just turn it off.
TIA
Adding wireless speaker to a wired room
in General Control4 Discussion

Hi all,
if I have a room with two wired speakers to my C4 amp, is there anyway to add a third wireless speaker to that room I can also play the same music that the wired speakers are playing?
Thanks so much in advance.
