Control4 Unifi - Control4 Overwrites UniFi Intercom call group settings

Control4 Unifi - Control4 Overwrites UniFi Intercom call group settings


When using the Chowmain UniFi Driver, the Call group table is incorrectly overwritten. By default, the UniFi Driver automatically sync's and configures the table to allow the intercom to communicate overwriting existing information

 


Solution

  1. You MUST be using Chowmain Unifi driver version 20251106
  2. Ensure that the Control4 Primary Controller is set to static IP (or, DHCP IP reservation). Without this, Unifi will be unable to call the Control4 controller consistently 
  3. In Unifi Door Station Driver in Control4, ensure that intercom calls are operational to Control4 communication devices. This step can be skipped if manual configuration is performed
  4. Set Auto Sync UniFi SIP Settings to "Disabled" in Properties. This will stop Control Overwriting the Settings in UniFi
  5. Update the UniFi Call group settings to include other people to call. Do NOT remove/change the Third Party SIP Settings
