To update the apps and themes purchased for an account:

Click Update at the bottom of the page. This not only updates the list, but also all of the Navigators

attached to this Control4 system. When you update, the list populates with the account's apps and

themes and their size.

5.5.6.4 Example: Program Using the Announcements Agent

Use the Control4

Composer Pro Agents and Programming views to program this agent.

You can create announcements that:

1. Display a text-message or Web page on any of the Navigators (TV On-Screen menu, Touch

Screens, or LCD Keypad)

2. Play a WAV-formatted audio announcement through any audio end point

3. Combine the two mentioned above

Note: The Control4 system allows up to 10 MB of files for the Announcement agent, and plays a

maximum of 15 seconds per announcement.

Example: This example demonstrates how to create a 'Dinner is Ready' announcement that is

activated when the family chef (or dad) presses a custom-programmed button. When the button is

pressed, the text message 'Dinner is ready' displays on all of the Navigators in the home, and an

audio file of a dinner bell ringing plays.

Prerequisites

The following devices are added and identified (with a network address) in the project:

• Controller

• Audio output device (Television or connected speakers)

• Navigator with a screen (Touch Screen, LCD Keypad, Television)

• Any device involved in the triggering event (Doorbell Contact, 3-Button Keypad, etc.)

To set up an Announcement agent:

1. Start Composer and connect to a Director.

2. Click Agents.

3. (Initial Announcement agent only) Click Add.

4. Select Announcements, and then click OK to add Announcements to the agent types list in the

project. The next time you want to create an announcement, just select the Announcements item

in the Agents pane and click New.

5. With Announcements selected in the left pane, click New.

6. Name the new announcement, and click Create. Example: Come to Dinner!
