Overview

The Scheduler webview driver for Control4 provides end users with the ability to schedule pre-setup presets/macros via Control4’s T3 touchscreen and T4 touchscreen along with Control4’s iPhone, iPad or Android based applications.

We have designed the scheduler to look, feel and operate in a similar manner to the Control4 thermostat scheduler.  As such not only is it very functional but the UI feels and operates like a Control4 interface.

The driver allows you to setup a repeating schedule which will repeat on a weekly basis or setup a one off schedule that will only operate once and will remove or disable itself after it executes.

This adds a missing feature from the Control4 home automation system that dealers have sought after for years and provides end users the ability to schedule without having to utilise the Control4 Composer Home Edition software for PC or by using when / then.

An infinite amount of Presets/Macros can be setup by the dealer to suit the customer’s lifestyle and Control4 system.  For example you can create Sprinklers On and Sprinklers Off presets or for a commercial job they can setup a shop open and shop close schedule.

Disclaimer
Note the T3 version of the application is hosted externally and requires an active internet connection to access the application each time it runs.  All personal data is stored on the local Control4 controller.  T4 and mobile versions of the application will run without an active internet connection as the UI is stored on the controller.

FAQ

This is not a replacement for Composer Home Edition.  Not all end users want to learn how to program their system using Composer Home Edition.  Our scheduler will allow them to easily manage scheduling for anything connected to Control4 via the Control4 T3 touchscreens.
