This driver is obsolete - for new installations, please refer to the Visual Navigator driver, which includes all the functionality of this driver, plus much more!
https://drivercentral.io/platforms/control4-drivers/visual-navigator/
For existing installations, you can replace the Security Webview driver with Visual Navigator if desired - a Security Webview license is valid for Visual Navigator too.
Overview
Security Webview is a unique webview driver, allowing you to see an overview of the state of your home with a graphical and easy-to-understand overview.
Following a quick setup from any browser, the webview interface is accessible from any T3 touch screen, showing a custom floorplan you can upload, overlayed with the position and state of any and all motion sensors in your project.
How you use the driver is up to you - you could configure it with motion sensors to give instant data to where motion is detected anywhere in the house; you could add window contact sensors or gate sensors to show where you might have left a window open at a glance, or you could even use the system as an 'alarm' visualiser, by configuring it with glass break detectors, smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors. The choice is yours!
Webview Compatibility
The webview interface is compatible with any Control4 T3 touch screen.
You can also view the interface from any browser by navigating to the following URL, substituting in the IP address of your main processor;
http://<controller_ip>/driver/janus_security_webview_dc/dist
FAQ
What do I need to install?
For each zone you wish to display in Security, a sensor endpoint driver is required. These can be found in Composer from the System Design view by going to My Drivers, and scrolling down to the section labelled Sensors. Any driver within this folder will be able to be shown in Security.
The contact sensor connection for these sensor drivers should be connected to whatever system you are using for control.
I would like a new driver to be monitored
