New! Enhanced 4Sight Service with Anywhere Access: Mobile

In addition to web browser access, the new and improved 4Sight service now delivers Anywhere Access to a Control4 system from a smart phone or tablet over a 3G/4G or remote WiFi connection. All the network handling is automatic and built in to the 4Sight infrastructure and new MyHome apps. No more complicated network settings, special equipment, Dynamic DNS subscriptions or hard-for-customers-to-enable VPN connections required.

To enable this new functionality, add a 4Sight subscription1 and launch the Control4 MyHome app on a smart phone or tablet2 on a 3G/4G or a remote WiFi network. The app will automatically connect to the Control4 system and let customers access and control their home or business from virtually anywhere.
4Sight also provides alerts on the go and security features designed to keep Control4 customers safely in contact and in control any time, anywhere.

Anywhere Access: Mobile With the MyHome app, you can access and monitor and control their home or business from virtually anywhere using a smart phone or tablet.

Anywhere Access: Web From a web browser, customers can easily access, monitor and control their home or business around the world, wherever they can get internet access.

Alerts On the Go You can stay connected to their smart home or business through text or email updates and get notified when there’s a problem, so they are always in the know.

End-to-End Security All communication between the mobile device to the Control4 system is secured and encrypted (SSL/TLS and AES256-bit) and managed entirely by Control4, preventing networking holes or potentially unauthorized access.

New! Remote Recharging Station
The new Remote Recharging Station keeps SR-150 and SR-250 System Remote Controls ready to control. A low-profile charging cradle and a Lithium-Polymer battery kit provide hundreds of charge cycles for years of performance. The Recharging Station is available as a charging cradle and battery kit for remotes our customers already own, or as a kit with a charging cradle and an SR-250 or SR-150 for new customers. NOTE: OS 2.4 includes an important firmware update for existing SR-250 remotes that displays an accurate battery life indication on the remote’s screen.
