  1. Current legacy (pre-connect) C4 customer with an active 4Sight subscription. If I purchase a Composer HE license, does this still come with the 1 year of 4Sight? Or is this sunset with the 4/23/24 launch of Connect?
  2. I'm using your suggestion and staying with the KA for the stairways. Thank you.
  3. Interesting, as getting quotes to re-due parts of my system, a dealer mentioned changing the C4-FPD120 at the bottom of my garage stairs to a programable keypad with three buttons for scenes, such as Lights, Home, and Away. However, he didn't mentioned anything about changing out the C4-KA. I assume that the C4-KA in the hallway can be switched out for a C4-KC120277? Thank you, as this is why I asked on this forum--getting too much conflicting information with my onsite walkthrough quotes.
  4. Can the C4-KD120 act as a on/off switch instead of dimmer? I currently have a three-way wire for my garage overhead lights. I believe that the switch in the garage is a C4-FPD120 which I am considering changing to a C4-KD120. The 2nd switch for the three-way wiring is a C4-KA. For this wiring situation can the C4-KA be changed with to C4-KC120277. In summary current three way is controlled C4-FPD120 and C4-KA, with my thought to install a C4-KD120 and C4-KC120277? Would this work? As I can repurpose/reprogram the C4-FPD120 and C4-KA in my project.
  5. I just picked that up as my new router, interesting that Ubiquiti tech support is included now. Is this new, as I thought this was a downfall for Ubiquiti? OverC Pro-Giga hub support document states that the Unfi switch line is supported—why wouldn’t C4 provide support? It was on the unsupported ‘black list’ in the past.
  6. My HC-800 controller blew last May 2023, as I was awaiting a wood flooring replacement before upgrading my equipment. Have been paying for 4sight and have a back-up of my system. Will my account be suspended after May 2024 as I wait for the install? Just renewed 4Sight last month. I’ll look out for the 30 day notice e-mail from Snap.
  7. This is the current C4 fan switch in my master bedroom (AC fan) I didn't want to confuse the pictures, thus the 2nd follow-up post. You're saying I could reprogram this switch when I have the DC fan installed and add scene keys such as Music (on/off), TV (on/off). Just not the volume rockers, which I'm OK with as there is a touch panel nearby and remote.
  8. Would a C4-KC120277 work? Sorry as I'm not an electrician by trade trying to understand KC, KD (which is a dimmable programable switch and not appropriate for a fan) and KA . Trying to understand the types of C4 light switches that were installed, as I update from AC to DC fans. Yes, I would like to change the layout of the programmable keys and why I don't want a 'dummy non-control 4 switch' Is the attached photo an example of a KC120277, as the top button controls two AC fans on my porch and the reminder keys are for scenes. I assume I can re-use this light switch (attached photo).
  9. I have been going the DIY route since my original install back in 2014/2015 which was new construction. Have been replacing products when they are outdated and adding Apple HomeKit products as my former C4 dealer was very slow to respond (took weeks to respond to a e-mail after multiple reminders), as in my market the dealers are chasing the new construction and over hundred thousand custom home movie theaters on Kiawah Island and Seabook Island, and very tough to schedule for equipment change out for an existing system. Mater of fact, I'm still on OS 2. Don't mind researching a product to make sure it is the correct match for my project, as when a piece of equipment fails the homeowner should have a basic under standing of how it works after a power cycle fails to fix. I'll pay a premium for a product that works, but as technology advances pricing should drop (except during the pandemic days). For example, a manufacturer that has been able to hold on prices while advancing technology is Apple. We're getting M silicon chips that cost less than the equivalent Intel chips, and a big productivity boost. Circling back that I contacted J Tech regarding the JTD-3081 as an audio extender and their support representative recommend SPDIF as I'm only extending sound to a 2.0 in ceiling speaker set up.
  10. That is correct that you never provided me a quote, as my intention was just to mention you used AV Edge Pro over two years ago, March 2022. Are you still using that product?
  11. Do I just leave the current C4 AC Fan Switch as is when the Modern Forms fan is installed by the electrician? Any direction you can guide me to that summarizes the current C4 light switch offerings, as my switches were installed around 9 years ago? Would make life simpler if C4 had a DC fan switch, similar to the AC Fan switch.
  12. @Cyknight it was posted further up thread that @msgreenfmentioned he uses the AV Edge Pro product, but I only need 2 channel return sound for the 2.0 inch ceiling speakers located in the keeping room off of the kitchen, rear porch and master bedroom (my two 7.1 and one 7.1.2 zones are powered by AV receivers). I’m not considering the $10 Amazon option, as the Cat5e cable was roughed in during construction 10 years ago by my former C4 dealer from the TV locations back to the C4 rack (original thought was distributed video, but this was prior to steaming). It appears that the J Tech product is a newer to market that is powered by USB C rather than DC/5 V, as I have a support ticket into J Tech if a AC outlet with 2 USB C ports is adequate to power the J Tech audio extender. Yes, it’s pseudo DIY as I’ve chosen to go the remote C4 dealer/programer route for the TV sound, but the speakers are programmed already into my C4 system for streamer music services out.
  13. Reason why Snap One launched Control 4 assist and assist premium to drive additional RMR from service contracts.
  14. How does the DoorBird field of view compare to the Chime? I currently have a 1st generation Door Station. Has anyone come up with a fabrication to flush mount the Chime within the DS rough in back box?
  15. Interesting that Cat 5e to PCA audio baluns are $10 Amazon, whereas a local C4 dealer told me today that he uses AV Pro Edge extenders for $500 a pair (can be found online for $300).
