thanks guys for your help! 

Thanks, but any c4 dealers I’ve contacted in the area do not want to help at all or want $3000+ for a system upgrade.
Which is bad customer service if you asked me.  

You guys have been way more helpful than anyone I’ve reached out to locally and thanks for that. I can understand why people just rip this stuff out, which is a crying shame.

i have plenty of blanks - pay shipping and it's yours

I will probably take you up on that offer.

Just get with your dealer, it's only a few $ to get a new one. 

If we only knew who the dealer was, I totally would.

I just figured you guys might have spares you could sell with the word Scene 1 on it, since Scene 1 seems pretty generic. 
 

Does anyone have a replacement button that says Scene1 for this panel?

We have T3 Touch Screens and iPad - all work - need to update App on iPad 

Control4 Screens Before T3 will not work 

Thats what I thought.  Are there any big benefits going to v3 vs 2.10 aside from a cleaner looking app? 

The previous owners of our new house decided to take the receivers with them when they moved.  So If anyone has any, let me know.  

I have B-520-EXT-230-RS transmitters installed in the rack. 

Thanks!

My HC800 is on 3.2.1 

Runs fine - Just no GUI in the room 

Do you your C4 tablets still work?

These tends to not working because of sensitizer, I have 6 now with same sympotoms, I might one day in life RMA them to C4 if they will take them and fix them, if not ebay them at $70 a piece would be easier ...

Thanks, i will just keep this one as spare parts for the one that’s working I guess.

It could be an IP conflict where its set to static but another device already took that IP address. Try changing to DHCP and see if it fixes things.

I got it up and running using the V1 image updater loaded 2.9.1 and it popped right up.  Now it looks like the sensitizer is not working as it should, so I might be taking this apart.  Anyone got parts for a c4-tsmc7-en-bl?

So it is running 2.2.0 and my project is 2.9.1 any way to update this easily?

I got it to come up in system manager, so I’ll just keep at it and post up how I fixed it, if I do in fact get it working again.  

I can see it on my network, but I can’t tell what version its on. 

that’s about all they are worth i think

2.91

not sure what this panel is on

2.91

I have a 7” touch screen c4-tsmc7-en-bl that’s stuck on the Connecting. Press and Hold for Configuration, which it will not let me press and hold for configuration or i’d join the network, director and be done.      I have also left it wired in the dock as well which does nothing.   I do have an IP when it boots before that screen.   

Any suggestions?

Just letting you know i got the 700’s installed and they are a great upgrade from the 100’s we had in the house.  Thanks for the fast shipping!  Now i have to figure out what to do with the 3 AN100’s these replaced.  Any suggestions?

There are numerous adatptor kits to transfer RCA or optical audio over Cat5/6. Many on Amazon.

Yeah I see them, with so many I was wondering if anyone had experience with a brand and could refer a brand specifically. I hate getting gear and then it doesn’t integrate well or it fails shortly after install.

Araknis or rukus. What is the budget per AP, ISP speed? Router and switches?

I just went the path of least resistance and picked up 3 AN700's off  chopedogg88.  Now I just have to figure out how to get these off the ceiling without breaking off all the tabs that hold them on.

how did you update it?  it only shows 2.91 when i go to update it.   I just want to run 2.10, not v3.

No need for fibre, any Cat5/6 cable with inexpensive audio adapters on each end will pass optical or stereo audio back to your rack.

I figured it was something like that, what do you use for this?  Any suggestions?  

I have a question, is there anyway that you can  push past version 2.9.1.532460 on an HC800-BL-1?

I’d just like to bring the house up to 2.10 if possible, Any suggestions?  

What would a ballpark cost be to upgrade to v3 controller?

We see more and more clients using TV Smart apps in lieu of video distribution with the TV audio optical or RCA being sent back to an audio matrix / amp. Significantly cheaper approach.

how are you sending optical back, fiber in the wall?
