@msgreenf fixed it for me with bindings - thank you! As an aside: I recently purchased Text Expander and I think I'm going to add the phrase "Mitch fixed it" to Text Expander given how often that happens

I was able to test 3.4.2's fix for remote connection of Composer HE to both properties with C4 and can confirm that it is working again which is a great fix! Note that you need to have separate licenses for HE for each property. Thanks to @msgreenf for upgrading me and helping me work through this over the last few weeks!

I have a C4 adaptive phase dimmer connected to a hue downlight. I want the dimmer to maintain power to the load when the dimmer is in the off position so the hue bulb stays active. My question is: is there a software setting that can do this or do I need to wire the dimmer accordingly? Right now, the dimmer continues to control the load despite what seems like the logical settings: physically the dimmer is wired as normal with the load wire of the dimmer able to control power to that light. In Composer HE, I have the dimmer properties set so "buttons control load" is not selected and "use as a 2 button keypad" is selected. In programming, pushing the top of the dimmer activates an advanced lighting scene that controls the bulb and pushing the bottom of the dimmer toggles that advanced lighting scene. Have I misconfigured things on my end or is there a setting maybe in Composer Pro in connections that can divorce the button press from the load to maintain power? Or is this not possible and I need to just physically remove the load wire from the dimmer and connect it to the line wire so it always has power.......

That's too bad that they don't make a UK version of their US in-wall outlet - we have several and they work very well. Hopefully a version of it gets to the UK soon.

Roku apps no longer launching
Dueport replied to paneristinewb's topic in General Control4 Discussion
Can things be updated to function as they used to before Roku made this change or does this mean Roku is effectively broken with C4 from now on? -
C4 iOS app not available on Apple Vision Pro
Dueport replied to cnicholson's topic in General Control4 Discussion
Me too! Happy to help test. I bought a Vision Pro day 1 too it is fun tech! -
I see thank you I'm sorry I misunderstood that was a good idea but I am able to ping from the remote network into the computer running composer so I don't think that's it
-
Thank you for you message - yes I've confirmed that I can ping the controller (and all other devices) at the remote location. Importantly neither local nor remote works - in Composer HE if I try to connect to the remote property using the remote option that doesn't work, and if I try the local option Composer HE sees the remote controller locally but won't connect. When I go to the remote house physically and sit on that network I can connect fine locally to that controller so I know the remote house controller is fine. If this was simply a vpn issue it would make sense that I can't connect but the fact that both remote and local options don't work in Composer HE for a remote site makes me think there's more going on than just a network settings issue because the remote connection should work regardless (and it did perfectly before the 3.4.1 update so that again points to more than a bad network setting I think).

Unfortunately it still does not work for a remote site for me. I cannot connect to our vacation home from our primary residence despite both locations being fully updated and running the newest version of Composer HE. It doesn't work using the remote option and it doesn't work using the local option (the homes are connected through a vpn via Unifi Site Magic configuration). I'm running Composer HE in parallels on a Mac. When I try the local connection it just fails. When I try the remote connection it just hangs saying it is connecting. Over the past couple weeks sometimes I got it to connect but mostly not just very unreliable but this morning I have spent over an hour fiddling with this stupid thing - I've restarted computers and controllers tried multiple computers, etc etc. nothing - very disappointing. Over the past few weeks, I have gotten a notification of a security threat block once or twice from unifi that appears to be associated with trying to connect and I have cleared those by bypassing/allowing the "threat" in the unifi security settings so I don't think this is a firewall issue. This is extremely frustrating - HE worked fine before 3.4.1 remotely and locally. Finally locally works but still not working remotely. I hope this issue is resolved very soon. Now, if anyone else can get remote to work reliably in Composer HE I would like to know that in case the issue is a networking setting on my end.....otherwise I hope this gets fixed fast because it is very frustrating.

Radon is indeed big in the states especially here in New England - being able to get regular readings and see/program those in C4 is a great thing! -
Chowmain - Airthings Air Quality Monitoring and Automation Driver
Dueport replied to alanchow's topic in Third Party Software
What a great driver! I have been eyeing these devices for a while but didn’t realize they had a WiFi one - will be picking up a couple and a couple instances of this driver for two projects. Thank you @alanchow and team you guys are constantly enabling great new integrations! -
This is great thank you for adding this option!!

Damn that is very cool - bravo!

I really wanted to love Josh.ai but we’re getting rid of it as it has never worked properly over the year we have had it. Often it doesn’t respond to the wake word and has been about 20% effective in recognizing commands for us when it does. Constant problems not seeing Sirius channels or selecting the right tidal tracks and the announcements not working or being too loud or too soft. Given the positive praise for it from others I suspect our experience has been largely due to a poor installation by our local integrator for whom we were their first install. While we love the C4 navigators, I agree the Josh app is very well done but I suspect their push toward full control is, in part at least, a tack from their initial voice first approach because voice is very hard and they don’t have the ability (good AI models) to get it better.

Seeking Best Practice running outdoor ethernet cable into home
Dueport replied to ejn1's topic in General Control4 Discussion
That’s how we did it but ran through conduit to the pool house (about 200’ I think) and cat6 to pool controller, WiFi AP etc. generators are in a different location but also through conduit. Our exterior runs (these plus cameras) run through a bunch of rack mounted surge protectors that work great. Never had an issue with any of them. -
Very cool - this is an awesome driver!

composer HE bug after upgrade to 3.4.1.701303
Dueport replied to ziggy's topic in Programming with Composer
I was referring primarily to these points. I agree HE is limited in audience but it is also an important competitive advantage - it was part of why we went with C4 over competitors for the reasons quoted above. -
composer HE bug after upgrade to 3.4.1.701303
Dueport replied to ziggy's topic in Programming with Composer
Though I can’t subscribe to your idea of this being a planned outage, your points about the perceptions of HE and value to the platform and customers are well said and dead on I think. -
Awesome! Great update - thank you @Darin, PM C4 CX Platform and C4 team!

Transferring data between Residences
Dueport replied to South Africa C4 user's topic in General Control4 Discussion
Isn’t there a driver that mirrors devices between houses? Would that do it? I can’t remember the details of the driver but I feel like I saw that somewhere….. -
Beautiful system! Enjoy!!!

iOS app not connecting away from home
Dueport replied to antneed's topic in General Control4 Discussion
That’s interesting I’ve tried that when it happened to me and didn’t fix it in my case. Very strange
