  • Control 4 API 2.0 installation guide

    The latest control driver from Chowmain software can be downloaded here

    It allows the Control processor to utilise the IR inputs and outputs of the HDANYWHERE matrix as if it was there own. Allowing installers to spec smaller Control 4 processors than they would typically need and is compatible with the following HDANYWHERE products:

    MHUB431U
    MHUB862U
    MHUB4KPRO44
    MHUBPRO4440
    MHUB4KPRO88

    control4-ca1
    IMPORTANT

    Before setting up the Control 4 driver, the MHUB must have been through its first boot process. This can be done by navigating to the MHUB’s IP address in a web browser or in uControl and following the onscreen instructions. No other setup of the matrix is required, but this step must be completed before the C4 processor can utilise the matrix I/O ports. It is not required otherwise.

    Add the HDANYWHERE driver as you would any other driver, the driver will auto-discover a video matrix or multiple Audio Matrices

    The next step is to setup your control and AV connections. Traditionally in a normal Control 4 setup, you would bind the source devices ‘control inputs’ with an IR output on the C4 controller. Instead, with the MHUB Video driver’s you can route the control through the MHUB’s IR ports utilising the IP>IR Engine. Similarly, Display IR is routed through the Display IR ports on the matrix. This video shows how to make these bindings

  • Using ARC with Control4 and MHUB

    Control4 does not natively support Audio Return Channel (ARC). With more and more content coming from the likes of Netflix, AppleTV, Disney+ Youtube and BBC iPlayer, this presents a problem for installers who want to take this audio and feed it to external speakers as part of their Control4 project.

    This video shows you how MHUB and our Control4 driver makes the impossible possible and describes the steps you need to follow in Composer to achieve ARC in Control4.

    More information:

    Please ensure that both your MHUB and the Control4 driver supports ARC.

    To disable the beep on the mHub 2k range of matrices please following the instructions below using either I.P or RS232 connection methods.

    To adjust the settings on the mHub range of products, you will need to download the controller software Download

     A) Connecting to the mHub Via I.P

    The mHub 2K’s IP address is pre-configured as 192.168.0.100, your computer will need to have it’s IPV4 range configured to be within the same range initially while you setup the matrix. (You don’t need to follow this step if you have a mHub 4K system)

    To configure your IPV4 settings you will need to navigate to the following menu

    ->Network and sharing center

    —>Ethernet
    —–>Properties
    ——->Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)
    ———>Properties

    IPV4

    Once you have changed the IP settings on your PC, open the Mhub controller software.

    In the Control Mode Select Box choose ‘IP’, then click the ‘Search’ button. When the IP address shows in the mHub IP box, click connect.

     

    B)  Connecting to the mHub Via RS232

    To connect via RS232 use the supplied serial cable can connect between the mHub and your PC, then on the Controller software select ‘RS232’, then in the RS232 Options section select the Com port being used from the drop down menu then click connect

    Capture
