Using the Control4 Room screen

Most of the Control4 visual interfaces have a Room screen. The Room screen categorizes your automated home’s features under several icons. (There are some small differences between interfaces).

Note: Only installed devices display on the Room screen, so not all of these example icons may appear in all rooms.

To open the Room menu and navigate the Control4 Room screen:

• For the TV on-screen display, press your Control4 remote control's left arrow button to open the Room menu, then use arrow buttons and the round SELECT button to navigate.
• For mobile devices or a Control4 touchscreen, tap the Control4 logo in the upper-left corner to open the Room menu, then tap on-screen icons and menus, or swipe to change rooms.
• Remember: Whenever you want to return to the Room screen, just tap the Home screen icon in the upper-left corner.
