Control4 dealer training

Program Control4 like a senior tech.

A hands-on course built around a Composer-style simulator and a full house to automate. You don't watch someone else click. You build, break and fix it yourself.

The Skynet Residence living room, the house every lab is built on
How you learn

Every lesson is a lab.

A real project to work on

The Skynet Residence: rooms, lights, keypads, AV, locks, climate and shades. You identify devices, connect them and program the whole house.

Composer, the way you use it

System Design, Connections, Agents and Programming, with events, conditionals, loops, variables and a trace log that shows exactly what your script did.

The house reacts

Press a keypad, open a door or move the clock to sunset. Lights ramp, LEDs change and scripts fire, so you see cause and effect.

Lighting in depth

Keypad dimmers, configurable keypads, adaptive and forward phase dimmers, with their properties, button links, LEDs and device variables.

Service skills

Networks, Zigbee meshes, OS upgrades, controller migration and a diagnostic method for the calls that pay the bills.

Work at your pace

Guided, hinted or on your own. Your progress and your simulator project are saved to your account, on any computer.

No. It is independent training, not affiliated with or endorsed by Control4 or Snap One. Product names belong to their owners.
