Control 4 Home Automation

[9651]

Anyone know much about it?

 

Customer has an existing system, wants the light switches backlight dimming down. Looks like its all registered to the dealer, and therefore locked down?

 

Just want a bit of background before i tell him not interested/cant/dont want to do it

I've got a customer with it, it's a pain in the ass

They're running a Premier 48 and a Dvr through it with the lighting and audio kit via IPads

Everything is dealer based, I looked into it but it's a closed shop so I was informed by them

that'll do me

 

This place if fully networked, cinema rooms/xbox etc and all the lights are ran through it too. They only want the back lighting on all the smart light switches turning down, probably a simple job, they asked the question on the way out, so i said ill find out.

Registered dealers only.

Paxton have been down with me today talking about the new product net10, which is also going to have home automation products, if its as easy as any of their other products then be good

Hi guys, interesting topic, we are a registered control 4 dealer - not that we do two much with it - but if you get stuck again with it especially as a lot of dealers stick all manner of security systems (Texecom DVR Cameras) through it then give us a message and happily help you out!

PS: Something to watch if you come across it, sometimes the integration with Control 4 and Texecom can cause random CIE faults on the Texecom panel. Where ever possible we don't like putting the intruder alarm through Control 4 especially as most panel manufacturers use apps on smart phones these days anyway.
