I did not ask him -- he is traveling and I am putting together a list of Next Steps for further system development. I appreciate your input and thank you for your comment.

I have a terrific dealer. Thank you.

Hello, I have a lighting element that is currently controlled by a Kasa HS220 dimmer. Currently, the light can be controlled (on / off and dimming) either by the physical button on the HS220 dimmer or via the C4-T4 Touchscreens. I recently installed a KCB wired keypad. Does anyone know if I can bind the KCB keypad to the lighting element so that I can control dimming via the KCB? thank you for taking the time to review.

@msgreenf thank you for the feedback. Oddly when I attempted to recreate the issue, the lack of a properties feature only occurred after a backup. Strange.

Hello all, I recently upgraded to a the new version of the Composer HE. I noticed that when I highlight a project element in the MONITORING section, I can no longer access the related properties (via the properties tab). Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?

@santana0201 BlackNova are great; Check out www.blacknova.co

Thank you @cidle323

Can someone please provide me the button sequence to factory reset (i.e. remove all as-written configurations and restore to out-of-box status) a KCB wired keypad. These are the C4-KCB-xx devices. For reference: 15 top button presses reboots, 5 top, 5 bottom, 5 top resets the RS485 connection. I am missing the factory reset command. Kind regards

@BXTR and @SpencerT Thank you both. I appreciate the guidance.

Does anyone know of a C4 driver that provides a virtual keypad GUI on a T4 / mobile Navigator for the C4-KCB (C4-KC120277) keypads (customizable 6 button units)?

@ajd123 you state your programming objective is: anytime any light in a bathroom is turned on it triggers a timer that will turn on my bathroom exhaust fan. If a light is on AND then another light is turned on in the bathroom, I want the timer to restart. The screenshots above show you have set the Bathroom Fan Timer to RESTART when the Master Bath lights turn OFF. Is this intentional because you want the fan to run a bit longer after all lights are off? Or is your intent to turn the fan OFF after all lights are off? If you have a lot of light switches in the bathroom, one suggestion would be to put all of your conditional programming into a single macro. You can then run the macro every time one of the switches changes state. This keeps all of the programming centralized and makes the logic easier to follow, troubleshoot, and change.

@ajd123 Check out the C4 drivers for WhatsApp, PushSafer, and Pushover. As Shoe states, these apps offer more flexibility than conventional SMS. If you are determined to continue to use SMS, SMTP2GO offers the ability to generate an SMS from an email. In such a case, you email a specific address (that you setup as an SMTP2GO sub-account) and the service re-transmits the message as if the message originated from a cell phone. There are fees associated with this service and the cost can add up quickly.

@C4 User Thank you for your reply. The IQPro DNA chart published by the manufacturer lists part number HS2TCHP as Hardwired Remote Touchscreen marketed with the IQPro.

@C4 User and @Cyknight I just completed setting up the physical equipment for the IQPro and aim to activate the panel this week. In reviewing these messages, a few users suggested that the C4 integration was only possible if a particular touchscreen was connected to the IQPro. However in a follow-up thread, concerns about needing a touchscreen seem to be discounted. I am not quite sure. Can either of you, please: advise if a touchscreen is needed (and if so, what specific model you selected)? kind regards.

@Shoe There is no guessing in home automation. The 2N keypad that sits on the mounting panel for the DoorStation unit is an ancillary module and requires mating with the DoorStation unit for any communication or logic functions. This element can not be mounted in isolation. 2N makes a separate, standalone unit that looks identical to the ancillary module and contains all of the needed electronics to function independently. We need a driver for this unit; a Chowmain driver would be a wonderful addition ( @alanchow). Chowmain drivers are fantastic and the programmers who author the drivers are top-notch. The 2N product line looks sharp and has a solid feel (real metal, not plastic). A few of the many reasons to select a standalone 2N keypad: aesthetic consistency with existing 2N DoorStations areas in which cameras would be inappropriate and intrusive there are no existing keypad only products in the C4 lineup ability to manage access codes from the same C4 Composer as DoorStations security (resistant to brute force attack on the keypad) quality, the 2N devices are consistent with high-end applications @SYH I searched extensively and could not find a great solution absent using the workaround that I outlined above. Let's hope that Chowmain identifies a business case to move forward (I did submit the driver request ticket).
