MQTT local no longer works
Zuhair replied to Stephan's topic in Troubleshooting, Workarounds, & Bugs
It's working fine on 3.3.1 with an external MQTT broker. -
That's correct, once you link the "Berto IOT Device" driver to a temperature sensor (Tasmota, zigbee2mqtt, zigbee2tasmota or Shelly) the temperature and humidity will be available in C4 programming. To have the temperature displayed on OSD you'll need to bind the "Berto IOT Device" driver to C4 generic temperature & humidity display driver. In my case, I've asked my dealer to bind all the "Berto IOT Devices" temperature sensors to C4 generic temperature & humidity display drivers to have it displayed on OSD and easier programming in HE. For example in my case: C4 will get the temperature from Aqara Zigbee sensor, if it's above a certain value it will close the Aqara Zigbee curtains, and if the humidity is high, it will turn on the A/C. In bathrooms, if humidity reach to a certain value, C4 will turn on the exhaust using Aqara Zigbee wall switches for 15min. In some areas, I'm using Aqara Zigbee motion sensors to turn on/off the light using Aqara Zigbee wall switches.

Are you using Berto IOT_Device driver? If so, ask your dealer to bind the driver to C4 generic temperature display driver.

This device works with Berto driver, it has to be flashed with Tasmota.

The Aqara/Xiaomi door/windows contact are small (1.6 X 0.8 X 0.4 in). I'm not sure about binding the temperature sensors, I'll have to check with my dealer.
-
I'm using Berto driver with Xiaomi, IKEA, Aqaraand Sonoff zigbee devices. Tried the door/window contact, motion sensors, water leak, and Temperature sensors. I'm waiting for the Aqara and Xiaomi 1/2/3 gang zigbee switches to arrive. By the way, the same driver will support TP-Link devices and Yeelight.

The bridge can be installed directly from the driver by just providing the host IP & Password. You can contact @david@berto.co.uk to get the latest version or update the driver if it's already installed.
-
Berto driver can integrate directly to Home Assistant and HomeBridge (to control all Control4 devices from HomeKit). And yes, you can use this MQTT with Home Assistant & HomeBridge.

You can use many devices with Tasmota, for example https://zigbee.blakadder.com/zigbee2tasmota.html David is working on a universal driver that will cover almost any device in that list. For now all Sonoff Zigbee devices are good to go. I have these running: https://sonoff.tech/product/smart-home-security/snzb-01 https://sonoff.tech/product/smart-home-security/snzb-02 https://sonoff.tech/product/smart-home-security/snzb-03 I didn't order the door/window sensor, it should work https://sonoff.tech/product/smart-home-security/snzb-04 I believe these devices will be added soon: https://sonoff.tech/product/zigbee-diy-smart-switches/zigbee-mini https://sonoff.tech/product/zigbee-smart-plugs/sonoff-s31-lite-zb https://sonoff.tech/product/zigbee-diy-smart-switches/basiczbr3 I'm also using these devices through MQTT/WIFI using the same drivers https://sonoff.tech/product/wifi-smart-wall-swithes/tx-series https://shelly.cloud/products/shelly-1-smart-home-automation-relay/ https://shelly.cloud/products/shelly-rgbw2-smart-home-automation-led-controller/ https://shelly.cloud/products/shelly-dimmer-2-smart-home-light-controller/

First you have to decide between zigbee2mqtt or zigbee2tasmota on Sonoff Zigbee Bridge. If you are using Sonoff Zigbee Bridge: Hardware required: Sonoff Zigbee Bridge. Raspberry Pi (to run the gateway & the MQTT Broker). I've tested this setting with Sonoff ZigBee button SNZB01, Temperature & Humidity sensor SNZB02, Motion sensor SNZB03 Installation: Flash the Sonoff bridge with Tasmota, it's simple straight process, here's an example (https://youtu.be/aiUol1GQDlU). You'll also find other methods if you google the subject. You'll need to ask your dealer to install Berto drivers. Berto cloud, Berto gateway, and as many instances of Berto IOT Generic. Then you can continue with Composer HE. From the gateway driver click on the install the gateway, this will automatically setup the Raspberry gateway. Discover the gateway. Discover the devices.

ITEAD Sonoff WiFi Wireless Smart Switch
Zuhair replied to Amr's topic in General Control4 Discussion
Berto's new driver can be setup without bindings. -
Use ComposerHE to do all your programming. For bindings and hardware modifications, you can use an online dealer, quick & reasonable.

Zigbee devices can be easily flashed https://bit.ly/38pQOxZ @david@berto.co.uk is working to add this bridge (and other brands) to his driver. By enabling C4 to integrate to zigbee2mqtt or zigbee2tasmota, we will have more options for motion & temperature sensors, windows & doors contacts, buttons & switches from Sonoff, IKEA, Xiaomi Mi and more.

Annex4 UniFi Driver is not working with UDM Pro
Zuhair posted a topic in General Control4 Discussion
Has anyone succeeded in using Annex4 UniFi driver with UDM Pro? @annex⁴ -
This driver never worked with me.
-
Berto driver is working flawlessly with Control4. It currently supports zigbee2mqtt and soon will also support zigbee2tasmota. https://www.berto.co.uk

You can contact David: david@berto.co.uk

IOS Shortcuts - Where are these coming from?
Zuhair replied to HomeAutomationNerd's topic in General Control4 Discussion
Is this driver communicating 2-ways with Control4? -
I use Shelly with Berto driver, works awesome.

Last week I installed Sonoff strip lights in the kids rooms as hidden ceiling light along with @david@berto.co.uk IoT Dimmer driver. I already have Schedule It driver from @Cinegration for each family member syncing with his/her Gmail calendar. When the "Good Night" button is pressed on the room's keypad it turns off all the light and turn on the strip hidden light to level 1 as night light, it will change the color to light blue, if there is an online class next day it will change the color to light yellow.

I added 12 Sonoff minis each with IoT Light @david@berto.co.uk driver for all the bathrooms and kitchens exhausts. I set a timer to turn off bathrooms exhausts off after 10min and the kitchen's after 20min

Forthcoming Berto IoT Production Release
Zuhair replied to david@berto.co.uk's topic in General Control4 Discussion
Yes, response is immediate to Control4. -
This solution is rock solid at my house, almost every single light.
