Composer4hire got a reaction from hightechhandyman in Lutron Keypads & Scenes With Control4
one way to do this assumes you have Lutron keypads:
Build your lighting scene in homeworks and assign it to the button on the keypad
find the integration id of the keypad on the lutron integration report and monitor in Control4 for the Release of the button that triggers the lighting scene
in custom programming set the other actions you want to happen based on the Release of the button
with that principle you can program just about anything to happen from any lutron keypad button
the key is to make the programming actions trigger upon the Release of the button
If you want to make something happen based on time of day you can set up a single Day/Night variable in homeworks and tie that to a timeclock
in this case we'll say Day is sunrise to sunset and Night is sunset to sunrise but you could have any number of timeclocks based on whatever time frames you want
in that timeclock the only thing that needs to be written in the lutron database is the Day or Night variable being true based on the timeclock
on the button programming side select Single Variable instead of Normal or Conditional and this will give you a Day/Night tab for the press
program the lighting scene according to your taste for day and night
on the Control4 side youd have to write a conditional based on time of day to match your Day/Night variable in lutron

Composer4hire got a reaction from Amr in For new programmers starting out....
When I was starting out, fresh from certification I remember I opened up composer pro on the first project I was on and then was immediately a dear in the headlights. Now after a few years of field experience I've seen my way to being able to program these systems pretty easily. As a pay it forward kind thing I made some videos on my youtube channel covering a few different topics in programming. Some of the videos are direct responses to viewer questions which also highlight and showcase different sections of composer pro, be it conditional logic, variables, custom programming, etc. When I was starting out this type of thing would have helped me tremendously to see some of these principles demonstrated rather than just reading about them in practice, so all I ask is anyone that views these videos, if you find them helpful please consider subscribing and liking the videos and if there's a topic or question youd like to see a video about let me know in the comments

Composer4hire got a reaction from GAFB in Lutron Caseta Integration
Homeworks QS. Nothing is better or more versatile. While it is expensive and doesnt fit all budget or applications, in the instance of new construction a properly planned, wired and installed panelized lighting system has so many benefits. Having worked on C4 lighting, RA2, caseta, Homeworks interactive, Homeworks illuminations, QS reigns supreme.
