    we use Texacom Elite with Smartcom 
    Have done now for over 3 years - No real Issue. 
    If I was going for a new install go smart com and ComIP and get your dealer to connect to the ComIP

    Shame we never got a weather station app for the T3/T4s like the old Extra Vegetables Cumulus driver.

    Update:
    Posted on dealer forum 1-30-24 8am.

    A new HE is built and will be going through internal testing.
    When ready, it's expected you'll just need to update HE.

    Thanks for passing that along @bnorman

    We have the Composer team working to get a new Composer HE for 3.4.1 out the door as quickly as possible to resolve this issue. I don't have an ETA, but I can follow up with that team to see if I can get any additional details or see if they need some end-users to test the changes prior to full release.

    We now replace the T3 with these when they fail 
    We also have a Amazon Fire - Which after some playing about with now works with Intercom

    We had the same problem 
    My dealer said I need to Upgrade to Core 5 - I said I would if Control4 would Guarantee in Writing I would not have this issue again - They would not  
    However saying all that over the last few months the issue has gone away - Not sure why 
    We used to Re Refresh Navs -(let he system go back to ideal) and then Refresh Gateway - This would bring everything back on line again (May have to do a couple of times.
    Our ds2 was updated Driver 264 
    Had the Core3 now for over 6mths

    Gary Leeds UK reacted to Time2Jet in Ruckus Sale!   
    Anyone interested in Ruckus gear, message me. There is a very nice sale on their APs and Switches. Fantastic opportunity to finally crossover to enterprise grade APs at prices similar to mainstream home APs. I’m a huge fan of Ruckus and its Unleashed platform. Very simple to setup and manage.

    The sale runs through the end of the year.

    Message me if you are interested.

    TIA

    Gary Leeds UK reacted to RyanE in OS3.4   
    It is not the door relay driver, it's the door autolock driver.
    Door Auto-Lock (OS2.9+)
    It requires not only a lock, but also a door contact sensor.  With those two things, it shows door and lock status on a single experience button, and allows you to lock/unlock the door with the experience button.
    It's main functionality is to implement longer auto locking, and only auto lock the deadbolt when the door is closed.  You turn off the deadbolt's auto lock functionality, and use this driver instead.
    It's one of my favorites.
    RyanE
     
    Edited to add: It also has a command which enables/disables the auto locking, so you can turn it off for parties or repair people, etc.  It's pretty handy.

    Gary Leeds UK reacted to anon2828 in Halo Touch On Screen Custom Buttons   
    That. Is. Horrible.
    So we have OS3 skeuomorphic style icons for things like channels and devices such as AppleTV now mixed with flat icons for lights, rooms, comfort, etc.  Umm yeah.  So basically no standard.  Looks like a huge turd.
    [Skeuomorphic design is a design approach that uses visual elements to mimic real-world objects or materials, while flat design is a design approach that uses simple, two-dimensional shapes and icons without attempting to mimic real-world objects or materials.]
    In OS3 there was a design principle and standard similar to Apple's (https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/app-icons).  Now we have some weird mix.
    The skeuomorphic design introduced in OS3 provided a rich feel to the top level user interface (Lighting, Watch, Listen, Comfort, Cameras, etc.) in the app and Neeo remote.  Flat design at the next level down (for example from Lighting > individual lights / sliders) made sense without giving up the richness of the icons at the top level.
    I don't totally hate flat design compared to skeuomorphic when it is executed well (see Apple again).  Here it looks like someone took a set of pre-existing icons and ported them over.  Comfort, lighting, rooms - all look the same at a quick glance on the Halo remotes shown above (same color, same shapes).  Compare and contrast to flat design icons on your iPhone.
    If this is where OS4 is headed, someone needs to go back to design school.

    Why sell it - Why not just put Alexa into control4 
    I loved Control4, but now it just feels a bit painful trying to get everything to Work and Control4 dealers not telling you the full story 
    Come this web Site to see if anyone else is having the same issue's - Yes they are most of the time 
    Yes Control4 does a Job - Has a Software for My Phillip Hue Lights / Sonos Speakers / Q motion Blinds / Axxess Blinds / texcom Alarm However Control Door Station and Intercom - Total Rubbish - Have refresh Navs Programmed every night  now (3.3 hc800) - 
    If its made by C4 stay away - that's my view - Apart from HC800 and SR250 remotes - Solid Kit

    Gary Leeds UK reacted to jimbones in detecting sunlight via sensor   
    If you're already in the Philips Hue ecosystem, then the Philips motion sensor does motion, temperature, and light intensity (lux). The driver seems well supported and the sensors can be found for ~$40. I've used them for this EXACT scenario: when light intensity reaches a certain level then draw the shades. Pretty easy peezy.
