C4loso

Technically he can join audio zones from Sonos to C4. But it could be janky and require using both C4 and sonos apps. Basically you need a sonos port. Connect both input and output to the matrix. When I’m your garage and playing music elsewhere in the house ~> add the port to that audio session then add the Sonos in the garage? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You definitely need the IQ panel as that’s the “smarts” of Qolsys and interface point. You can have it in a central location and use the touchscreens to disarm and arm system. Only thing is if you want Auto Unlock or disarm of alarm it needs to be close to your front door or within range. Alternatively you could set it that when you use your keyfob to open the garage it’ll do activate the alarm Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Are you refreshing the project after making changes? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Do you have it tied into C4? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Have a read of this https://evanmccann.net/blog/2021/11/unifi-advanced-wi-fi-settings Goes into detail some of the Unifi settings. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s actually pretty cool. Would you happen to know how many zones you can do? Or it’s the same with Dali groups = 16. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Very interesting driver. Are the DALI zones the same as DALI groups? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The best thing for you is to go to a Control4 integrator near you, visit a showroom and see what you’d like your house to do or what you’d like to automate. Then work with them to achieve that. You can look here for a list of control4 dealers just look for one near you. https://www.control4.com/o/go-with-a-pro/ If you want to understand some of the cabling requirements check this out If you can’t go to a show room this is a good starting point to see what could be possible with a Control4 system. The sky is the limit, obviously budget and what you want will come into play as to what you’ll get done. Good luck Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey guys looking to buy a few things: 1. Control4 C4-lu1e (need 3) 2. Rack ears for iox v2 (need 2) no longer need the LU1E - purchased. still looking for rack ears though.

No longer needed, purchased one.

I’ll take whatever I can. Just the dock or the dock and the power supply

I’m looking for the C4T3TT7 docking and power thing. Not quite sure of the name. FOUND - no longer needed

Try rebooting your controller

Hahaha I think you’ve already passed the basic smart home stage. Last question what amp do you have and how many zones of audio do you currently have. from the sounds of it to create multiple zones you need Triad Audio Matrix. But in order to have the audio from your tv come out in your ceiling speakers maybe a little bit tricky. Not only that but you may introduce audio sync issues as the audio has to come from your tv then routed to the matrix and back to the speakers.

Obviously you are new to C4, so let’s start here. You said you have a ea3 in the rack. Q1. what exactly is the ea3 controlling? Q2. What are your future plans? What else do you want to control? If you are unsure of what you want it’s probably a good idea to go visit a showroom to see what it’s capable of or some YouTube videos. Best thing you can do for yourself is figure out exactly what you want your system to do and create a plan to achieve it and not try to acquire this and that without a plan as some stuff will not work together properly. Q3. How do you play your music, local sources, tidal, Apple Music, Spotify etc? the reason I ask these questions is to better answer your question. For multiple zones of audio in which you want different music in each you need and amplifier and an audio matrix (2 seperate units - you have multiple different triad amps and triad matrix’s to suit your need). Before C4 used to have a matrix amplifier (1 unit) but as stated above it’s now end of life. There are other matrix amplifiers that integrate well with C4 like Episode Response Matrix Amplifier or Anthem MDX. A Sonos amplifier will power up a zone of audio, but you’ll need multiple to power up multiple zones. For me the integration with control4 is meh. A Sonos port is a player or music source which you output the audio into a audio matrix to have it play in your other zones in C4.

I’ve used keymap editor and it works. My use case was on an Nvidia shield, in full screen video I wanted it so that when I press back the video will stop instead of playing in the background. To do this I went into the keymap editor addon, then edit then full screen video, then Browser back then you have 5 seconds to press the key you want on the remote. The last step is to go back to the first page of the adding and save config. Hopefully that gives you an idea of how to get it going,

You can use Keymap editor, this is a addon found in the Kodi repository. It allows you to change button presses to exactly what you want.

The way you feel about the palladium’s is the way I feel about the C4 stuff. Hence I just think they’d do well with a different line that’s not based on the current lineup. If only I knew where to begin - a business idea create skins for the keypads. Allow for the same mechanism but different looking keypads.

I get the price difference but they can introduce a new lighting device and call it their “premium range” and charge more for it.

I love C4 but the reason I haven’t jumped into lighting that much is the keypads. Perhaps it’s just me or my taste but it seems C4’s keypads are still oldschool looking and don’t have the refinement that a lutron palladium keypad has. I have a few dimmer pucks and switches around the house but I’d transition the whole house over in a heartbeat if they were to update their keypads to better looking ones. again people always seem to go in arms over stuff like this but I’m not trying to bash C4 or anyone who has these keypads in their houses. I’m just stating what I’d like to see as an end user and hopefully C4 has something up their sleeve. Plus I’m also genuinely curious how one with a multi million dollar house with high end gear opts for the C4 keypads these days with the way they look?

Are these still up for sale and pricing?

Just wondering which one I should pick? Do they both integrate with C4? Or which one works better for C4? The integration I’m looking for is if someone rings the doorbell I want to be able to use the intercom anywhere app to unlock the door. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
