3.2.1.5 Programming View

Use the Control4

Composer Programming view to have the Control4 system control devices by

identifying to the system any device behavior or configuration options that you want to occur

automatically. The Programming view lets you create a program script using the drag-and-drop

method.

Note: Programming is an advanced function of Composer Pro. Detailed information about

programming in this view is explained in the Composer Pro User Guide. This section discusses a few

of the basics.

All programming is based on events in the Control4 system. For example, a door that opens is an

event. When an event occurs in the system, it can trigger other programmed actions to run.

Example: When the Bathroom door opens (event occurs), program the Bathroom light to turn on

(action taken).

Another example is shown in the figure below. Note the text in the Script pane (middle pane).
