With the development of the tekmar 486 (IP version) coming soon, we felt we should update the 482 (RS232) driver, which was originally written in 2010, to better fit our current frameworks and code. As a result, Cindev has just finalized a new version of the tekmar tN4 482 Gateway driver! This driver is a replacement to the existing tekmar driver and has a much cleaner installation and faster usability.

A tekmar tN4 486 driver is coming soon!


Features:

  • Simplified installation

  • Better addressing for thermostats

  • Automatic driver configuration once driver connects with the thermostat

  • Humidity Level, Humidify, and Dehumidify setpoints

  • Auto, Heat, Cool mode adjustment

  • Dual temperature monitoring

    • Tekmar thermostats support multiple temperature sensors. The driver has a selection to choose which temperature. This is located under the Settings tab in the proxy!

  • Dual setpoint thermostats 

    • Customers can now choose which setpoint of the thermostat they want to adjust. Adjust the Floor setpoint or the Room setpoint via the Extras Tab.

  • Supports Preset and Scheduling

  • Snow melt group on/off control

  • Single setpoint thermostats with ability to customize the range (32F - 210F)

  • Faster communication and better logging tools

  • Works on Android, iPhone, iPad, and Control4 Touchscreens


Why Would You Need A tekmar Driver?

Tekmar HVAC systems are often installed in homes with radiant floor heating and special HVAC applications.

This driver takes information from the tekmar system and converts it to Control4 information using the existing Control4 Thermostat Proxy system.  That means you can provide the same solution to your customer with this driver as you do with normal Control4 thermostats.  All the information from the tekmar system is presented on the standard Control4 interfaces. Any changes made on either system are communicated to the other, making it a seamless integration.
