@Tim McDougald – The Control4 integration uses drivers that must be installed on the Control4 hardware by a Control4 dealer. https://www.control4.com/for/connects-with-control4, To find a dealer near you, please visit https://www.control4.com/dealer_locator
Having contacted Control4 tech support they stated there is no way to connect this opener to their system. Please explain how this connects to a Control4 system when the Control4 tech support says it can’t.

I have control 4 and a genie garage door from 2014. Can you refer a dealer to me who can connect my iphone/control4 to the garage door?
I bought the 7155 garage door opener with all the features from Costco. It was so easy to install I had my 14 year son do the work. We had so much fun. The Connect app works perfectly no issues. So happy with this product I was surprised when I saw all the bad reviews. Instructions are straight forward and it was just plain easy to get everything up and working. So quiet and smooth. I can’t think of anything I would change.
