UniFi Protect Update

Due to the updates in the latest Control4 OS (3.2.2+) we were able to further improve on our UniFi Protect driver with some often requested features.

A new feature of the driver that deserves honorable mention is the added dynamic snapshots feature. Before the latest update the main limitation of the camera driver was the missing preview snapshot on the Control4 user interface. This was due to the inability of Control4 to handle the changing url of the Protect snapshot. The latest Control4 dynamic snapshots feature allows us to update that url on the fly so that you can now get a quick preview before viewing the live view of the camera! 

Here is a complete overview of all of the features added to the latest UniFi Protect driver:

  • Update to use new camera_v2 proxy commands (Control4 OS3.3.2+)

    • Added dynamic snapshots

    • Added liveview (iPhone, iPad)

    • Added support for different resolutions

  • Added line cross detection events

  • Added Package detection events

  • Added motion detection to Protect Light driver

  • Fixed issue with Protect light not toggling


If there are any other features you would like to see added to this  or any other driver reach out to us via email @ info@cindev.com

Remote Agent Webview

The Remote Agent provides your customers with a beautiful user interface for the remotes found in your Control4 smart home. Now with the latest version of the Remote Agent the home owner will be able to view the status of remotes, locate remotes and adjust remote settings through a new sleek dashboard.

The new Remote Agent dashboard is now available on both native Control4 touchscreens as well as the Control4 mobile apps (iOS and Android). In addition to viewing remotes states, the dashboard provides the home owner the ability to adjust many of the remote settings previously available only through composer (these differ based on the type of remote) and locate the remote when lost (if available on remote).

We hope you enjoy our new and improved Control4 driver found here:

To save money and add other cool features to your projects, consider purchasing the Remote Agent as part of the Agent Bundle.
