Jailbreak tool for Control4. Lets you add, rename and move rooms, drivers and devices in Composer Pro without being a dealer.
Check the latest release for the Composer and controller OS versions it supports.
Home automation is more fun when you can play with it. Write your own drivers, make your house do cool stuff. By default you can't touch your own project without going through an authorized dealer.
This tool is open source, so you can see exactly what it changes. And if you change your mind, it can undo itself.
- Head over to the releases page and download the zip (not the source). Unzip and run C4Jailbreak.exe.
- Install the Composer Pro version listed in the release notes.
- Enter your controller's IP address and click Jailbreak.
- If the status bar says "Management pack not installed", click Install Pack.
- Open Composer and connect to your project.
The release notes have the full steps for each version, including how to upgrade your controller.
Click the arrow next to Jailbreak and pick Revert. It undoes the jailbreak on your PC and on the controller.
You're all done
Everything is at your own risk, obviously. If this tool leads to your house burning down you can't blame us.
