What do you want the double tap to do?

If you want to do the same thing I would just program one one the keypad buttons with what you want it to do, and the copy and paste the programming to all other keypad buttons as required. No more than a 5 minute job even if you have 20+ keypads.

I want the double-tap to turn off that light (the light associated with the switch).  Thanks.

Hello,

Is there an easy way to program all lightswitches to have the same behavior on a (upper) double-tap?  I configured a few for my wife to just turn off but wondering if there is an easy way to do this for every lightswitch at once.

Thanks,

Hello,

I just ran into a nasty "gotcha" on my Win7 system when I installed and started to run Composer HE 3.1.1 (.569711-res).  This version apparently requires the use of the secure TLS 1.2 protocol which may not be enabled by default on a Windows7 System.  The symptom was "Unable to connect to project" and the error "Could not connect to director at {IP Address}".  Also, the logfile in \users\{user}\appdata\Roaming\Control4\Logs will have a stack trace that looks like this:

2020-02-02 13:07:58,691 [8   ] ERROR Control4.Client.SysManager - System.Security.Authentication.AuthenticationException: A call to SSPI failed, see inner exception. ---> System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The function requested is not supported
   --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

The solution was to enable TLS1.2.  You can do this using regedit and add two values.  There are lots of good web resources for this such as found at https://manage.accuwebhosting.com/knowledgebase/3008/How-do-I-enable-TLS-12-on-Windows-7.html

I hope this information is of help to others.

Hello,

Is there a way to force the iOS (iPod) version of the OS3 App to use portrait mode?

Thanks,

Also I like to use the Security Light Driver by Control4. It is great for secondary motion areas (closets, some hallways, garage, sheds, possibly bathrooms). It allows you to connect a motion sensor to a light in the house and set how long you want the light to stay on for, the ramp rates, and more all while avoiding programming. I have been using it for the past few months in my home and in many customers homes to avoid touchy programming and get the best results. Give it a try and let me know what you think. It has replaced tons of programming time and troubleshooting at least for me!

Good luck!

What motion sensors work with the Security Light Driver?

Does C4 then pickup that you have activated that zone and display the song ?

This assumes that each zone has its own Spotify Name, correct?  What are the pros/cons of having multiple Spotify Connect's defined by Room (i.e.: "Living Spotify", "MBR Spotify") vs by User ("Dad's Spotify, Mom's Spotify?)

Holy insecure and ancient firmware, batman!

Finally got around to looking at my legacy security system (purchased house in Oct, haven't used the existing security system yet, but thinking about it).  Talk about insecure (unprotected setup page, IDOR exploit to access remote filesystem, etc..) and ancient: in2 fusion image_2.2.3 - Mon Jun 4 14:18:12 MDT 2007.

I see that even the original support domain (in2nets.net) appears no longer responsive or to host software support for this device.  Any pointers where I can find some appropriate firmware upgrades?  (And OS3 compat later?)

Hello,

Is it possible to use Composer HE to change the assigned HDMI input on an AVR device?  For example, my TIVO is assigned HDMI4 but I want to change it to HDMI3.  If this is possible, can you point me to some instructions?

Thanks,

Hello,

I just added Alexa voice control. It works fine for lights. However, I can’t play music through the speakers — Alexa identifies them all as TVs.

thoughts? 

Director version 2.10.0.542164

Thanks - I will definitely call the Dealer Monday to complain. FYI on the panels — there is already Poe to each bricked panel so replacing them will just be an unplanned expense.

So far everything else appears to still be working - lighting, other a/v sources, security cameras.

if you pardon a few other questions:

- is there a driver for the Bryant Evolution Connex hvac control?

- can you get third party motors to manage Hunter Douglas manual (pull rope) shades?

Thanks.

Phew! Thanks. Are the C07s also POE? Will I need the dealer back to add to the system or can this be a DIY on my end?

Hello - new homeowner here. Thanks for answering my questions to-date. Just had the installers here to transfer ownership of the system, setup TVs, etc...

during this process, the Ea5 controller was updated to 2.10.  I noticed my existing wall touch panels no longer work and I was directed to get some tablets and put them on the wall instead.

This is a major bummer of course and I would have appreciated a heads-up before being told my panels will no longer work.

any workarounds here?

Pic of panel and version info attached.

Hello!

If you've been following along, I'm "taking over" from a previous C4 homeowner.  Dealer is coming in 2 weeks for initial setup and training.  (Going with the Home Edition + 4Sight so I'm partial to as much DIY as possible).  Planning out the network, which is a best practice?  I'm thinking:

- all IoT devices on their own vlan (FYI: I run ubiquiti gear)

- all IoT devices on assigned DHCP leases (i.e.: how well does C45 play with devices connecting via DHCP)

Thoughts/recommendations?

PS: Somewhat new to the remote control of this -- fair to say that if a device supports IP management and has a C4 driver, I won't need to setup IR dongles? I will have: TV, TiVo, AppleTV, BlueRay Player, and Receiver, each IP-enabled.

Hello - moving in later this week into a home that has a C4 system that controls security, temperature, and whole-home audio (in-ceiling speakers at 8 locations).  Apart from cabling, what's typically involved in "making the leap" to whole home video?  Do I need a new ... ?

Thank-you,

Hello,

Are there more diminutive control panels available beyond the 7"+ tablets?  I was a big fan of the Nuvo control panels in size and general functionality.  While this is not ideal for some parts of whole home automation, if you just want to control a few items and don't mind the up/down/select type of menu navigation, it can be less obtrusive to use this type of interface.

New to the C4 world, so just curious.
