2019-1-22 So using Composer Pro's Driver Wizard (i.e. When creating a new driver), I was able to depress buttons on the Bell remote and have the Control4 EA-5 capture those codes into the Driver Wizard. I also ended up creating 4 custom buttons in the Wizard for: OPTIONS, ONDEMAND, SEARCH and APPS (buttons on the Bell remote that aren't in the list of.
Control4
Our Control4 drivers are written and supported by Video Storm. This are full 2 way drivers completely integrated within Navigator. All switching and volume control functions are fully supported. Use right click and 'save link as' to save these driver files to your c4/drivers directory.

- After the printer driver list appears, select the target driver, and then select Next to go through the remaining wizard steps and complete all installation tasks. Contact your printer vendor for more information about which printer driver must be downloaded for the printer that you are using.
- Download the latest drivers, software, firmware, and diagnostics for your HP products from the official HP Support website.
- Device Drivers are the software piece you need to make it all work. Many people don't realize but even the internal components of a PC need drivers. Your video card inside your desktop or laptop computer requires display adapter drivers to show you images at full resolution. If the driver is not working correctly you will not be able to view.

CMX and VMX C4 drivers
Our base driver supports seperate audio and video switching, while the advanced driver supports complete independant control of all signal types.
Most of our CMX drivers are now officially certified with Control4.
The latest drivers (2.7) have added programmable volume ramp speed for C4 ramping and internal ramp speed settings.
The following two drivers have been enhanced to improve the switching speed for Composer 1.82 and later. Please note that they REQUIRE CMX firmware version 2.7 or later for reliable operation
avswitch_cmx_(allmodels_AV)e__serial__videostorm.c4i (For all CMX switches 8x8 and smaller)
avswitch_cmx_(allmodels_advanced)e__serial__videostorm.c4i (Use this if you require digital and analog audio to switch seperately)
avswitch_cmx1616AV_(16x16)e__serial__videostorm.c4i (Uses single rs232 to control a CMX1616V & CMX1616A)
avswitch_cmx1616av_(Advanced2)e__serial__videostorm.c4i (16x16 coax digital using cvbs ports)
avswitch_cmx1616a_(Advanced)e__serial__videostorm.c4i (Use this if you require digital and analog audio to switch seperately)
Obsolete drivers
The drivers below will still work in Composer 1.82+, but do respond slower.
RTI
Video Storm and RTI have developed 2 way drivers for the CMX, CMX-A2, IrUSB, and NetPlay Audio and Video product lines. Please see the setup intructions for how to setup and configure these drivers.
RTI has included the full RS232 command set for the CMX series in their master library. These codes allow easy integration of 1 way driver functionality.
Savant
Paramount automation provides and supports our free Savant drivers.

Crestron
Crestron CMX-A2 and NetPlay Audio module: CMX-A2-NAB
Crestron IRUSB module: IRUSB on github
Crestron SystemBuilder compatible module:
This module is very simple, it contains every possible direct command, for example V0101, V0102, C11D etc (thousands of commands) . Inexperienced Crestron programmers/dealers would likely use this module since they are apt to use the SystemBuilder software which is very 'wizard like'.

Crestron SIMPL Windows compatible module:
This module is complex, it allows a source device to be switched to multiple outputs simultaneously (the equivalent of entering V0101 and V0102 in rapid sucession). Of course it can also be used to just do a simple switch (the equivalent of V0101 simply). Experienced Crestron programmers would use this module. It provides stateful feedback of what the status of each output is, so the GUI can display what the status of each switch port is currently set to. It is very nice and full featured. Volume control support coming soon.

Pronto / URC
The CCF and PCF files here contain all the IR codes needed for control by Pronto or URC remotes.
Generic HEX IR
These HEX format files give all the IR codes for our switches. You can use these to integrate IR control with any other remote or control system.
Please refer to the IR tutorial and our online IR code function mapping when using the HEX codes.
PEMPro Version 3
With PEMPro Version 3 you can now correct your mounts periodic error, polar alignment and backlash using your CCD Camera or Webcam to dramatically improve tracking and guiding.
Here is a link to the Astro Imaging channel that has an extensive discussion of PEMPro with the author.
New Features Summary for Version 3
•Numerous user interface changes to make PEMPro visually more current, easier to used, and more intuitive.
•Support for new cameras and camera control programs including:
- All cameras with an ASCOM Camera driver
- Sequence Generator Pro
- PEMPro-enhanced PHD2 (free download)
- TheSkyX Camera Add On
•Improved support for cameras and camera control programs previously supported in PEMPro V2:
- All Cameras supported by MaximDL Pro v4, v5, and v6
- CCDSoft V5
- AstroArt
- Meade DSI series
- All video cameras that have standard Direct Show or WDM drivers.
•The Create PEC curve window has improvements to better select wanted and filter unwanted frequencies.
•A new 3D FFT graph shows frequency/time relationships.
•Numerous user interface improvements have been made to the Polar Alignment Wizard.
•The Backlash exerciser now supports the ASCOM MoveAxis method.
•One-click PEC automated the whole process of programming periodic error for some mounts (coming soon).
•Programmable API to automate PEMPro (coming soon).
•Programmable API to allow mount vendors to add support for their own mounts (coming soon).
•Polar alignment via Plate Solving (coming soon)
PEC Features
•PEMPro collects and graphically displays periodic error data in real-time.
•Calculates the most accurate periodic error data PEMPro by taking into account camera image scale, camera binning, exposure time, camera rotation, refraction, and star declination.
•Steady skies are not needed. PEMPro fits the periodic error data to an optimized and smoothed curve.
•Perfect polar alignment is not needed. PEMPro can subtract drift from the periodic curves.
•Easy to use Wizards that set up parameters accurately.
•Uses the main camera to provide more area of the sky than an autoguider to find a suitable star.

•Natively supports inexpensive webcams and video cameras.
•The Calibration Wizard can slew the telescope to a good sky position, and nudge the scope to find or center a star.
•The Frequency Spectrum graphs can show worm gear fundamentals, giving insight into where in the gear train the periodic errors are coming from.
•Analyzes collected data and creates a smoothed periodic error correction curve. Advanced control features that allow you to tweak the resulting PEC curve.
•Directly uploads a PEC curve to most commonly used mounts.
•For mounts without direct PEC upload, “play back” of the inverse of the periodic error curve for the mount to capture, thus eliminating effects from drift and random seeing conditions that usually happen when an autoguider is used to program PEC.
•Refine a previously created PEC Curve to reduce residual periodic error not removed by the PEC curve.
Polar Alignment Features
•Uses Electronic drift alignment is considered the most accurate polar alignment method.
•Polar Alignment Wizard leads you through the steps to achieve the best possible polar alignment quickly and painlessly.
•Accounts for refraction to produce a more accurate result than other drift alignment methods.
•Automatically selects a suitable star for tracking declination drift.
•A new star is automatically found and used if the star is lost because of the mount alignment change .
•Uses the main camera to provide more area of the sky than an autoguider to find a suitable star.
•Support for video cameras allows you to use an inexpensive webcam.

Control For
•The Star Finder tab is helpful if you have a small CCD field of view to locate a star or other object when your mount's alignment is not perfect. Press one button to calibrate, then another to start building a spiral mosaic, which is displayed directly on the screen. Once the star you are looking for shows up on the mosaic you can click on it and the scope will slew to it.
•The Backlash Exerciser issues alternating North/South moves to the mount while exposing an image. It allows you to assess the state of backlash of your mount. Too much backlash could result in poor auto-guider performance.

•PEMPro can be used to evaluate unguided tracking accuracy of the next mount you are planning to purchase.
•Online support by experts in mount tracking characteristics is available on the CCDWare PEMPro forum.
