The driver is available on DriverCentral. You must be a Control4 Integrator to install and set it up.

  1. Confirm the Hub2 is paired to the correct Homegroup.
    • You must be a Homegroup Owner or Homegroup Manager to complete setup.
  2. Enable Local Commands on the Hub2.
    • In the Gemstone Lights app, open Device Settings.
    • Scroll to Advanced Settings and expand it.
    • Turn on Allow Local Commands.
  3. Add the driver to the Control4 project using SDDP discovery.
    • In Composer, add the Gemstone Lights driver to the project.
    • Remove the driver from the project.
      • This keeps the driver file on the controller, but removes duplicate entries in the project.
    • In the top-right of Composer, under Items, select the Discovered tab.
    • Double-click the device with Manufacturer: Gemstone Lights.
      1. Composer will add the driver back to the project and auto-fill the IP address.
    • If the controller does not appear:
      1. Wait for the next SDDP broadcast (every 5 minutes), or
      2. Trigger discovery manually via Device Settings Advanced Settings Control4 Identify.

Note: Gemstone Lights devices should have a MAC address beginning with 90:F4:21:0.
