Chowmain releases generic TCP Command driver
Chowmain Software & Apps has released a generic TCP Command driver for Control4 which gives integrators the ability to expand IP control within Control4 without requiring them to develop drivers with DriverWorks.
This is done by providing access to send TCP/UDP/HTTP commands to third party devices or services via the programming tab. It also allows Control4 to receive HTTP commands allowing for third party control. This can be applied to cameras providing motion detection, line trips and other alarms and can even be used by iPhones to provide shortcut control or Siri based control.

The driver also supports URL-encoded usernames, passwords and ports as well as HTTP GET and HTTP post.
Potential applications include waking-on LAN command, to wake up a sleeping or powered off device that supports wake on LAN or to quickly integrate devices not normally integrated within Control4’s driver wizard by adding TCP commands to their events page.
