My 5 units are all 10 years old (I guess) and I bought one second hand more recently… they just work!

+1 for CardAccess

You may need to go into the Alexa App and delete the duplicate there… sometimes (always?) I ticking in my.Control4 will stop it from being added but not delete it (straight away?) on discover devices if it has already been added to Alexa.

Another solution is bNet Solutions bIcons button. I use the seasons option to show winter and summer icons which I toggle between.

Thanks! I don’t think poor power is my problem. We have terrible power in South Africa and all of my equipment is behind surge protection and on good UPSs. The IT100 only ever give an issue after a massive electrical storm.

I must say that your comments have improved the look and feel of their driver! Well done

I’m pretty sure this is the problem. You have a room called outdoor theatre and Control4 creates the voice command turn off outdoor theatre natively. It is this command that is being run and not the voice scene that you have created. The native C4 command will turn off media only. Either change the name of your voice scene to something different or, remove the natively creative command by unticking it in my.control4 and then rediscover devices…

This was my experience exactly. Love the unit. Love the driver. And it is more than accurate enough for me.

Lots of additional potential reasons to integrate (depending on setup): 1. I have a shower button which pauses the irrigation for 20 minutes when I am in the shower (amongst other things - like overriding motion sensors in the bathroom so lights stay on, increasing music volume and making sure that I am using municipal water and not our borehole backup) so that I keep pressure high for showering. 2. Alerting Flo by Moen to turn off the municipal water to the house when irrigating and only sue the borehole; 3. I have programmed when to skip irrigation due to high rainfall recently (as measured by my weather station) using a relatively complex algorithm with parameters that can be adjusted on my T4s or app. 4. I pause irrigation automatically (for up to 12 hours) if my borehole is running dry and the backup tank is empty. 5. I like monitoring when irrigation has been on and off (graphically) which I do in Control4 along with graphically monitoring hundreds of other variables. 6. I have a winter and summer setting which control4 changes automatically (with different frequency of watering, different time of day and different zone lengths). All of this I change from my T4s / app. 7. pause and play of irrigation from a keypad as well as LED feedback (red is off, green is scheduled and blue is running). I realise that some of these (particularly 3 and 6 can be done with most smart irrigation controllers. I have skipped this totally and have no controller. My irrigation runs straight from an IO extender. I am not necessarily advocating this but I love my setup and that it is all in one app (or on one T4). I think a borehole is what many of you may refer to as a well. Not sure!

Yeah, other examples are pool drivers where even the best pool drivers only use 80% or so of the available functionality and most use about 60%. I am only aware of one driver which uses (say) 90% plus of the proxy functionality (and there may be functionality that I am not aware of :-)).

That’s not fair… it has been great for popcorn sales all round the world!

This is my Neeo experience also (only 2 Neeos). Absolutely love my T4s (6 of the, across 2 houses - no issues and a pick step up from the T3). I do agree that the Neeo lacks in numerous aspects (backlit buttons and power being the main two issues). Looking forward to the Halo Touch.

While I agree 100% with the sentiment… I would say the percentages are a bit wrong… it would be the 0.1% who like to tweak and the 10% who get a poor dealer setup (my view - and this is not a dig at C4 or any of the dealers on this forum). Admittedly many of the 10% won’t find their way here.

I’ve tried with no luck. I don’t think there is a downside to trying though. The IT100s usually come with one in the box

I don’t have any answers for you but I do feel your pain! I have to replace my IT100 module between one and two times a year due to “storm damage”. I have tried everything to get rid of the problem and failed. I have 4 or 5 spares in the garage and have gone through 15 or 20 in the last 10 years, What scared me more was that my last storm damage was last October and it fried my Pentair IntellTouch panel as well as 2 of my swimming pool pump drivers as well as the IT100 so that was an expensive lightning strike. I am now very nervous about the next one! I have even considered a lightning conductor but they are ugly and I am not sure if it will help!

Single tap lights off, double tap AV off, triple tap all off is my standard

+1 for Tempest plus @Shivam Paw’s TTS driver. Two great drivers that compliment each other nicely.

1. Neeo was a bit of a stuff up but I still like mine. Will ultimately upgrade to Halo Touch, 2. yes there was a bad batch but I understand C4 replaced these no issue. 3. what bugs? Update to latest OS! 4. I don’t believe this for 1 second. C4 lighting is extremely reliable and one of their best features. 5. Really? What a pointless thread. If you want to change to Savant go for it. I am sure they have their strengths and weaknesses. So does C4. Personally I will stick with C4.

I use my Z2IOs

Presumably that plus single room OSD and control in a multi room system?

Refresh Navigators? if that does not work, check if she still exists in the Communications Agent - she shouldn’t - and delete her there also.

Good luck

Having had the privilege of Beta Testing this driver, I only have 2 comments: 1. It is incredibly complex but well worth taking the time to understand what this driver does. 2. It is extremely powerful and it is only by using the driver that you will really understand how powerful it is! Well done Domosapiens. This driver should become a must have in all new installs. My only irritation is realising how many (hundreds of) lines of coding I can get rid of via a couple of instances of this driver.

This and if you don’t have the room control driver then program against the power state of the room itself. The reason you program against the room (and not the keypad) is so that however the music is turned on (or off) it still turns the LED on this (and potentially other) keypad(s) on (or off).

This. For clarity, change the LED colour to blue when the room is turned on and to black when it is turned off. This will then work irrespective of whether you use the keypad, a voice command or an iPad or T3 to turn music on / off. Also, you don’t need the 2 lines for each LED colour change. You only need one line of code for blue LEDs and one for black (not the 2 that you have). Finally, I doubt that you really need your music toggle variable in your setup. My coding (preferably in a macro which is called from the button press or a voice scene) for this setup would be: If room power is on then Turn room off else Play music And then on room power off / on, I would change the LED colour to black / blue
