Driver Update: Hunter Douglas Powerview 2
The upgraded PowerView V2 driver is out with all new features, new icons and better shade control!
New features include:
Driver Add Driver: Tired of adding and configuring each shade and scene into the project? With the press of a single button all the shades will be installed into the matching rooms, renamed and configured automatically! Also works with shade scenes!
Stop shade command now supported: Need we say more!
New Icons for scenes: Improved icons and auto configuration. If a customer changes the icon color on the PowerView app, Control4 will automatically change.
Group Shading: Multiple shades of the same type now can be moved together as one.
Supports numerous shade types: Hunter Douglas sells over fifty types of shades. We've broken this down into three types: Single, Double and Triple Slider shade drivers. When the shade binding is set the drivers will self configure the name, icons and movement types.
End of Life:
hunterdouglas_powerview_shade_cin.c4z, the previous PowerView Shade driver, will not work with this version of the driver. Homes that upgrade to the new PowerView V2 hub driver will need this driver removed and the proper shade driver installed (Single, Double, Triple). We recommend deleting the legacy Shade driver and use Driver Add Driver.

The Dealer Agent driver is designed with both Control4 dealers and end users in mind. The Dealer Agent provides dealers with project validation, error testing, and controller monitoring tools that are quite useful in avoiding mishaps during the initial installation of the project. These tools are very useful for troubleshooting issues that arise with projects after installation as well.
The driver also provides the customer with quick access to dealer contact information/controller health status through an onscreen webview. In addition to the tools and webview, both the dealer and the customer will have the option to receive alerts when any potential issues are detected. The history of these alerts will be recorded on the controller, providing the dealer with sufficient information to tackle forthcoming issues.

Discover the Power of Control with UniFi and Control4
With the Control4 T3/T4 touchscreens, customers can access network events, devices, and clients in realtime. This driver has five key features:
Wifi control- enable and disable wifi at the touch of a button. No need to reach behind a couch or cabinet and blindly try to unplug the power to the router or modem. Clients can even turn off guest wifi while leaving the main wifi network on.
Watch theWifi control install video.
Power control - looking for a better power management solution? UniFi power plug is a compact, single smart plug that allows users to control any electrical outlet through Control4. Homeowners can easily reboot devices via the GUI instead of manually unplugging and plugging back in a power cord for a given device.
Watch the Power control install video.
Client control - create an icon on the GUI for a specific client to allow homeowners to connect or disconnect specific devices from the network. This gives users control over what devices are accessible at various times. For example, parents could easily block the Apple TVs, Roku, or gaming system in the kid's room or game room when the kids are grounded. Parents can also block such devices at certain times of the day, ensuring the kids can't watch TV or play games in the middle of the night.
Watch the Client control install video.
Speed control - test the speed of your wifi with the press of a button. Many users want to be sure they are receiving the internet speed they are paying for. This driver aspect allows for simple speed checks whenever needed.
Watch the Speed control install video.
PoE control - remove power from PoE devices such as wifi access points, cameras, touchscreens, etc, expanding control of the network even further. For example, many clients like the idea of indoor cameras, but do not want them on when they are home. This driver makes that possible! Cameras can be programmed to turn off when the homeowner's device connects to the network.
Watch the PoE control install video.
Many homes and offices use UniFi network equipment to provide reliable internet connectivity and control. With the Cindev UniFi Network Controller driver, customers can harness this power through their Control4 systems! The UniFi Network Controller and included companion control drivers provide a specialized set of tools to give your customers the alerts and control they want. Homeowners will have PoE port control, Client access, WiFi management, and integrated speed test monitoring from any Control4 interface.
