Connect Devices
You can use Interviewer within the Composer software on
a PC to walk you through the connection physical process
or you can set up the physical connections and then run
Interviewer to tell the Control4 system the applicable
connections.
Connect all applicable devices to the Home Theater
Controller using one of the available connection methods
including those described on Table 2-1, “Connection
Worksheet for Home Theater Controller”.
TIP:
Interviewer is a wizard that guides you through the
connection process. See “Configure the System” for more
information on configuring the software setup.
