The SainSmart iMatic V2 provides 8 x 250V/AC 10A Relays channels that is controlled over ethernet TCP/IP.  This unit is extremely affordable, is powered via a local 12vdc supply and is also din mountable.  Other solutions cost anywhere from 3 times to 10 times more.  This is by far the cheapest way to integrate relays into Control4.

Over the last decade, Lightwave has helped pioneer a revolution in home heating, lighting and power control: the ‘smart home’. Just a few years ago, the idea that your home could be enhanced by smartphone apps or voice control may have seemed out of reach, but with Lightwave it is here today.

Lightwave devices look smart and act smart. Behind the sleek exterior, built-in wireless technology allows all of our devices to communicate, via the Lightwave Link Plus hub

Lightwave is a modular system, so you can start with just a single device, or control a whole appartment suite. All you need to get started is their smart hub: the Link Plus

Lightwave is simple to install as it is based on ‘retrofit’ technology which uses the same wiring and backboxes as standard fittings. Once installed, dimmers and sockets can be operated using traditional manual buttons as well as bi-directional control through Control4 using the Chowmain Lightwave driver.  

This LIFX LED Wi-Fi Bulb Control4 driver gives you local integration of these lights including:

• No Internet required - sends commands directly to the lights on the local LAN!
• Dynamic selection - automatically finds all the bulbs on the network and lets you select from a drop down with the name!
• Individual sliders for dimming, selecting color, adjusting temperature and saturation

Control4 supplies the wireless outlet switch that makes any household plug-in device, like lamps, appliances and electronics part of the Control4 system by turning a standard outlet into a smart outlet.

Unfortunately this device is not available to the majority of the world as it only supports 120VAC voltage for US plug type devices.

Introducing the D-Link Smart Plug. It has plug types for different regions and is extremely affordable. This WiFi based power outlet supports up to 10amps (100-240VAC) and can be easily integrated into the Control4 home automation system using the Chowmain D-Link Smart Plug driver.

This driver is a simple convertor that allows you to use a Lighting Device within Composer and get a Relay Connection output.

 Features

• Quickly select the lighting driver from System Design
• Quickly bind the Relay output to the Relay Driver you need to control
• If the light it turned on via the light icon on a navigator this will reflect on the relay driver
• If the relay device is triggered the commands are routed to the lighting device
