Inner Range Inception is an integrated security and access control system designed for residential and commercial applications. Unlike a traditional alarm panel, Inception combines intrusion detection, access control and automation functionality, with support for areas, doors, inputs, outputs, lift floors, storage units and user management.

The Chowmainsoft Inner Range Inception driver provides comprehensive integration with Control4, including support for up to 32 areas, multiple arming modes, automatic zone configuration and extensive real-time feedback. Inception doors, outputs, lift floors, storage units and other functions can also be incorporated into Control4 programming and automation.

For advanced functionality, the driver provides access to Inception's management interface through Control4 WebView. This allows users to manage areas, doors, inputs, outputs, lift floors, storage units and users, as well as review system events, directly from compatible Control4 interfaces.

Installers can utilise dynamic events and programmable commands to create advanced automations based on security and access control activity. With Control4 Connect, push and email notifications can also be configured for events including arming, disarming, alarms, access granted or denied, input trouble and hardware events.

In another thread u/craftedht mentioned engraving their own keypad buttons. What is required to do this?

I previously had a system (RTI) Using an older video matrix. Each family member had their own apple tv and cable box. It was great starting a show in one room and switching to another room seamlessly without logging in restarting the app, .... Also was pulling audio from the sources in the Rack and could play Audio anywhere.

Switched to Control 4 and was recommended to just add an apple tv or Roku ultra behind each television. Was told Video quality would be better (My matrix was 10 years old and not the best) and we could send audio back from television to the Matrix.

A few months in and I hate this setup. Im going back to a matrix. Going to add a AV Pro 8x8 matrix (I will never have more than 8 sources / tvs so MOIP Is not necessary). I prefer a matrix over VOIP after some research and a great call with AV Pro Tech Support.

I will rip the audio right from video matrix and send to audio matrix and Ill have the ability to play throughout the house.

Also kids want their own apple tv like before. I also want the ability to play directv throughout the house as well.

Other than the Obvious Negative (The Cost!) 10k ish installed ... My Main Question is will the Video Quality suffer using HDBaseT. I have solid cabling in the house although it is only cat5E.

The installer said the Video processing on the matrix is excellent and I will have no issues. I would try to use my current matrix but its an off brand, struggles mightily with 4k and we can't find the proper driver for it. Also can't rip audio from it.

Thanks!
