When's that arriving? I still seem to be on 3.3.0 while 3.3.1 has been released. Any thoughts on speakers or the costs to set up Chowmain IFTTT and Echos?

Curious. 3.3.0 came out in June 2022 but we couldn't get it working in August 2022.

I have a Doorbird hard wired to a regular chime on the ground floor. For elsewhere in the house a) Is there a cheaper alternative to the €190 Doorbird Chime? b) what would one of the dealers here charge to install the Chowmain IFTTT driver to make our Amazon Echos spark up? Two dealers have unsuccessfully tried to make our Heos ceiling speakers play a media file when the bell is pushed, I believe due to the known bug. Instead, the speakers are set to play a radio station for a few seconds. This is unsatisfactory for various reasons. I spotted this little speaker on the other side of the world for about £69. Is it worth getting it and me trying to use Composer HE to set it up? We have an Echo in nearly every room so using them would be great. I appreciate there will still be a delay caused going via cloud services. Any other ideas?

Thanks for the clarifications Cyknight, useful to know. The event trigger has a C4 icon with text: "When Doorbell on Front Garden › DoorBird has been pressed"

My dealer set up several of automations in When > Then. The actions are marked with a padlock symbol. I was able to add a delay and then some others actions to one of them. These don't have padlock symbols. I'd like to tweak the delay I added. I don't seem able to change the delay (unless I guess delete all my bits and recreate them?). Is there a way to edit this simply? I went looking for these automations in Composer HE but can't find them. Where are they? Is its because they are dealer only? In this case its actions following a Doorbird button press, but I can't see anything in the properties of the Doorbird in Composer HE.

Fab, thank you @SMHarman! So I guess black square is stopped, nothing happening and the blue figure in the house is playback mode. Is there some way to reset it or see what it has recorded?

On the C4 Android app under Comfort I've got a Mockupancy icon of a house. I've not been able to find any picture online similar to it which seems strange. Tapping it cycles through the housing having a red circle record dot, a black stop dot, a blue person. What I'm confused by is: 1. what should be shown when it is recording? 2. what should show when playing back the simulation? ie. is it recording when the red dot is shown or do it tap the red to to start recording?! Second, can I check anywhere (Composer?) that it has recorded activity and if so what?

How did you get on? Similar question: I've got Daikin units in 4 rooms currently each with their own wired wall mounted controller. I also think the thermostat is in the controller? I've got Evohome HR92 thermostatic valves on the radiators in each room too. Would you suggest hooking the aircon into Cool Master, removing the wall controllers and I guess relying on the sensors of the HR92? Will I gain or loose any features? I've noticed that currently the Daikin units don't shut off automatically when they cool the air to the setpoint. Is that something Cool Master/Control could fix?

Thanks very much for the guidance above. My 4Sight trial expired. If I subscribe on at https://customer.control4.com/4sight will I then find a download for Composer HE somewhere in my account pages or does my dealer need to be part of the process in some way?

Indeed. Being able to voice command my ceiling speakers to play BBC radio was my main reason for installing them. I'm very frustrated that it doesn't work. What is your workaround @Kaz.....? Any suggestions from others, please?

I tried to post on the forum a while ago but kept getting 500 errors. I then saw that they did submit and created duplicate threads in the Q&A forum (sorry). When I click on those or the latest threads by other people such as "Network Design for a Flat addressing" it didn't and still doesn't open. Instead get this error message: Sorry, there is a problem Something went wrong. Please try again. Error code: EX0 I tried sending direct messages using the contact form to explain the issues but got no response. I couldn't find an email address ot use instead. What I found odd was the at no-one else was reporting similar issues and seemed to be continuing as normal, only noticing the duplication. it looks like it is working now. I've got no errors when posting and can read what I've posted. Can others?

Hello I'd be really grateful for any clarity you can provide on these questions. I am an IT professional so bits of code and tech don't phase me How useful is Composer HE now we have When >> Then? What features does each have that the other doesn't? What could I do/not do with each? Is it worth having both or else which one? James

When I say "Alexa play BBC Radio 4" it starts playing BBC Radio 4 on itself. When I say "Alexa play BBC Radio 4 on the bedroom speaker" it starts playing S4 Radio on the bedroom speaker. She says "S4 Radio from James's TuneIn Playing on bedroom. Sometimes she says BBC Cyrmu 2 playing on bedroom. I can also play BBC World News I can't play BBC Radio 1,2,3,4,5,6.

I've got C4 and Heos amps powering ceiling speakers. I've got Echos and 4Sight. I can't make BBC radio stations (Radio4 specifically) play on the speakers by asking Alexa. Other stations are ok. I know BBC pulled their stations from Tunein However somehow I can use the C4 or Heos apps to use Tunein to play Radio4 on the ceiling speaker!? I can also ask Alexa to play Radio4 and she will do so herself using BBC Sounds. But I can't ask Alexa to play Radio4 and other BBC stations on the ceiling speakers. When I try, presumably due to the restriction she instead plays the German S4 Radio. Why is this? Is there any way around it? Maybe something in Composer? How come it does work via the apps? Are these 'older unaffected devices'?

We've noticed that the picture captured when our Doorbird's button is pushed, often show the callers backs or turning away. I've timed it myself and found there can be a 0 to 2 second delay between pressing the button and the photo being taken? Is this common? Is there a fix? I'd have expected it to be instant or even captured from just before the button press. People are also often silhouetted. There is some bright sky visible. Is there any way to mitigate this? It's not turned on right now but we noticed the motion detection also had limited range (about 1.5 metres). I was hoping to have some control over sensitivity and designate areas to ignore? Any thoughts?

Most general switch faceplates are designed so they are a bit bigger than the wall hole and screw down to hide it. The C4 ones we've got angle back towards the hole, exposing any imperfect plastering/painting (on our legacy switch points). Why is this?! Are there alternatives?

I take it that the binding would address the '49' issue? Any thoughts on the other one: the current temperature being reported as 78 in the screenshot? Or are they related?

Binds? My dealer doesn't know whats wrong

1) In our Control4 our apps, the Comfort 'tile' for each room consistently displays "49" rather than a realistic temperature (49F = 9C).2) When we tap on it, the set point temperature sometimes seems to get confused between an (exaggerated) Fahrenheit[?] and Celsius readings. It'll sometimes show a high set point initially. Then if you switch to anther app and come back again it'll change the display to a more sensible reading. The Android phone is set to Celsius, and I'm told so is Control4It's been suggested that that the 49 issue is to do with poor communications between Control4 and Evohome. But issuing commands and seeing he effects from one to the other works fine.Any ideas please?
