rinjulian Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 hello, I have purchased a triad one amplifier in a second-hand store, how can I configure it ?, on the android mobile I have installed several app control4, but they ask me for a username and password. I don't have any control4 controller, I just want to run the triad one, just the amplifier, is there a free account for control4? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-defunct- Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Step one: The Triad One doesn't work stand-alone. It requires a Control4 controller to do anything. Step Two: It is not DIY, so you will have to call a Control4 dealer to set it up. Matt Lowe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rinjulian Posted February 29, 2020 Author Share Posted February 29, 2020 Thank you for your prompt response, the fact is that my budget is limited and I erroneously bought this amplifier, I have spoken with a control distributor4 here in Valencia Spain and the controller that offers me gets out of my budget, on ebay I have seen hc- controllers 250 economic, but I will still need a username and password. There is no possibility of obtaining a demo account to configure the triad one, I have installed several control apps on android4, but all require an account. If I buy a driver via ebay, what is the way to register it and get the account? I tried to access the triad one's IP with the ip scaner program and there is no way. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-defunct- Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 You will need to find a Control4 dealer to set up anything, even a controller purchased from ebay. Matt Lowe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Lowe Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 sadly if all you are looking for is just 2 channel audio for music this is not the solution for you. However if you want one of the most powerful home automation platforms now or down the road this is the right system. It does mean you will need to work with a dealer, so please do some work on this and find someone who is right for you.

tdougray Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 If your willing to spend a decent amount of money on a Triad one then I’m sure a EA1 controller is not out of your financial reach. TheN get signed up to a dealer( there are great ones on this site) and have them set this up will not cost much at all. trust me once you do this you’ll be hooked and this will just be just the start.

-defunct- Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 The most you will find the Triad One can do without a controller is be a very limited Linux-based box. Curious to hear back on what you find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crustyloafer Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 When you get bored of trying to get it to work without a Control4 system, I’ll take it off your hands for £100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rinjulian Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 Good afternoon, I am moving forward, I have managed to enter the Linux of the triad one, I have not tried configurations with Linux commands. I think the most comfortable thing is to buy a second-hand hc-250 controller on ebay, I already have an account with control4, my question is: Could I add the triad one to the system, once I connect the hc-250 to the same network? Or is the hc-250 very old and I will not be able to use the triad one ?. thank you for your patience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm not saying that would work. In fact I'm definitely saying it won't work--and you probably shouldn't try it. But that's what some people are saying. -defunct- 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rinjulian Posted March 26, 2020 Author Share Posted March 26, 2020 Not kidding: rm -rf You should always keep in mind that "rm -rf" is one of the most dangerous commands, that can never be run on a Linux system, especially as root. The following command will erase everything on your root (/) partition. It seems that it is a total deletion of the files, it means that the triad one without volume control and without input parameters could work, it seems a joke.

-defunct- Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 unless you have the correct software to configure an hc250, both the triad one and hc250 will be bricks. FYI, the configuration is not done in Linux. Literally nothing an installer does uses terminal and access to it like a Linux server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
