New C4 Lighting Interface

07/14/2022
by Adam Maslach

Over the last couple of years we have seen countless lighting products released with the ability to control not only brightness but also color, ambiance (temperature) and other effects. Though some workarounds were created to have these products integrate with Control4 the integrations lacked a native user interface to easily control the features of modern lighting products..... until now!

Control4's OS3.3 has provided us with a modern interface allowing for full control of lighting products:

The interface is now available both on Control4 touchscreens and mobile apps.

The following features of the interface provide the customer with the ability to:
control brightness
control full color spectrum (including lightness)
control temperature (adjusted for the temperature range of products, in Kelvin)
set custom presets
and more!

Due to this major change DriverCentral's developers have been furiously making updates to all of their lighting drivers to support the latest features.


Drivers that have been updated include:

Driver updates to be on the lookout for in the very near future include:

Adeo Control SGDD-C4-4 Server Gateway DT8 & DMX Driver Suite

Domosapiens

12/29/2021
by Shelby Schwartz

INTRODUCING A DRIVERCENTRAL DEVELOPER

Domosapiens was created in 2006 as the founder/owner, Paul Biron, was building a new house with the clear intent to overdo everything in Home Automation.  The house, located near Montreal, Canada, contains 78,000 feet of wiring.
 
Domosapiens began developing drivers in 2013 when a Control4 dealer asked about solving a client problem with an HAI security system which often beeped in the middle of the night. This is how their first and most complex Control4 driver was born - the Leviton/HAI Omni-Lumina IP driver. The driver successfully fixed the client's problem. 

 

As Domosapiens' founder had selected to implement Control4 in his house, several drivers followed - mostly answering in-home needs he had. These drivers are all put to real, everyday use!

  

As one of DriverCentral's first developers, Domosapiens has continued to develop value-added drivers, providing enhanced functions for Shades/Blinds, Keypads, Lighting, Experience Buttons, Thermostats,  etc. Domosapiens always tries to maximize the functions for clients while reducing the installation effort by the dealer, helping to increase project profitability.

 

Domosapiens has also developed many manufacturer-sponsored drivers, many of which have been certified by Control4. Some of Domosapiens' clients include Somfy Systems, Atlona, Sinopé, Audio Authority, and Dooya.

Domosapiens currently has the following drivers available:
