b Enter the code in the 'Enter Code' box by
pressing the Select button on the Sony
remote (located in the middle of the
directional arrows). A grid appears with
numbers and letters.
c Use the directional-arrow buttons to enter
the code, and then press the Select button.
TIP: You can use the numeric buttons on the
remote to enter the code. If you do this, press
the Shift button on the remote first, and then
enter the code; otherwise, you'll be selecting a
device (e.g., Blu-ray player).
d Select Activate. It may take a few minutes
while the receiver 'checks in' with the web
service to get the proper credentials. Once
the receiver confirms the Control4 Activation
License credentials exist, the receiver reboots
(which may take up to 15 minutes).
NOTE: Please be patient while the receiver
reboots. If after 15 minutes you don't see the
Control4 On-Screen Navigator appear on the
TV, press Home on the Sony remote.
5
After the receiver reboots, the Control4
system loads the default project. The next
screen you'll see is the Control4 On-Screen
Navigator. Control4 Automation has now been
fully activated, and you can use the Control4
On-Screen Navigator and a Control4 remote
(purchased separately) to control the system.
6
Add more devices and further configure and
automate the system using Composer Pro.
NOTE: A default project and drivers
are included for the Primary Controller
configuration. The default project can be
replaced with another project using Composer
Pro, but the Sony receiver and controller
drivers must not be deleted.
Activate the Secondary Controller
The Control4 On-Screen Navigator does not display
on the TV until you activate the receiver with full
Control4 Automation and add it as a Secondary
Controller into a project that already has a Control4
controller configured as a Primary Controller and
registered to a my.control4.com account.
NOTE: Director does not run on the receiver
when it is configured as a Secondary
Controller.
1
Add the Sony STR receiver to the LAN as
instructed in the prerequisites section of this
document.
2 Start Composer Pro and connect to the Director
running on the Control4 Primary Controller. The
project for the Primary Controller will open and
be ready to modify.
3 In the System Design view, add the Sony STR-
DA2800ES or STR-DA5800ES driver from the
Discovered Devices tab.

Two (2) driver components will be automatically
added to the project: a receiver driver and a
controller driver. Identify the receiver driver first
and then the controller driver as follows:
a In the Connections view, click the Network
tab.

Follow the instructions on the graphic image
that displays in Composer Pro, or see the
next step.

To identify the receiver to the project, press
and hold the TONE button on the front of the
receiver.
d While holding the TONE button, press in
sequence the following buttons: 2CH/A.

(complete the sequence within three (3)
seconds). The C4 IDENTIFY message
appears in the receiver's window. If C4
IDENTIFY doesn't appear, repeat the
sequence until it appears.
e To identify the controller driver, use the same
button sequence as described in Step 4c and
d.
f The receiver will reboot which may take up
to 15 minutes (please be patient). If after 15
minutes you don't see the Control4 On-
Screen Navigator, press the Home button.
5
After the receiver reboots, the next screen you
will see is the Control4 On-Screen Navigator. You
have now activated full Control4 Automation and
configured the receiver as a Secondary Controller
in the project. You can now use the Control4 On-
Screen Navigator and Control4 remote to control
the system.
