Smart-home technology has the power to make everyday life more comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable. However, even the most advanced system can become frustrating when you have to constantly search for your phone, open an app, select a room, find the correct device, and adjust several settings individually.

The new Lux by Control4 keypad collection offers a more natural and elegant way to interact with your home. With a modern appearance, customizable buttons, and powerful programming capabilities, Lux keypads allow your most frequently used features and routines to be available with the simple press of a button.

From lighting and motorized shades to music, televisions, climate, security, and complete home scenes, each button can be customized around the way you and your family actually live.

A New Look for the Modern Smart Home

A wall control should not look like an afterthought. It should complement the architecture, finishes, and overall design of the home.

Lux by Control4 keypads bring a cleaner, more refined appearance to smart-home control. Their modern design helps reduce the visual clutter created by traditional rows of switches while providing access to far more than basic on-and-off lighting.

Instead of having several individual switches lined up across the wall, a thoughtfully designed keypad can provide control over multiple lighting loads, shades, music zones, entertainment systems, and personalized scenes from one organized location.

The result is a wall control that looks intentional, feels premium, and is easier to understand.

Customized Buttons Designed Around Your Life

One of the greatest advantages of a Control4 keypad is the ability to customize each button based on your personal preferences, routines, rooms, and activities.

Rather than using generic labels or trying to remember what each switch controls, buttons can be clearly identified with names that immediately make sense to you, your family, and your guests.

Examples may include:

• Morning
• Welcome Home
• Relax
• Dinner
• Entertain
• Movie Night
• Game Day
• Goodnight
• Away
• All Off

These buttons can control a single function or activate several systems together. Pressing one button can adjust the lights, lower the shades, turn on the television, select the correct source, and begin playing music.

The programming possibilities are nearly endless because every keypad can be designed around the exact way the homeowner wants the space to operate.

Control Lighting Without Opening an App

Lighting is one of the most frequently used systems in any home, and it is also one of the most powerful ways to change the feeling of a space.

Lux keypads can provide direct access to customized lighting scenes that instantly set multiple fixtures to the correct levels. Instead of adjusting several dimmers individually, one button can create the exact atmosphere you want.

Lighting scene buttons could include:

• Bright: Raises the lights for cleaning, working, or daytime activities.
• Relax: Dims selected fixtures to create a softer and more comfortable environment.
• Dinner: Adjusts dining, kitchen, and nearby accent lighting for an evening meal.
• Entertain: Balances the lighting throughout the main living areas for guests.
• Night: Creates a low-level pathway through hallways, kitchens, and bathrooms.
• All Off: Turns off selected lights throughout a room, floor, or the entire home.

When the home includes compatible tunable-white or color-changing lighting, the keypad can provide even more personalization.

A button could recall warm white lighting for relaxing, bright white lighting for productivity, a soft evening tone for dinner, or a specific color for a party, holiday, or special event.

Custom color and lighting buttons could include:

• Warm White
• Daylight
• Sunset
• Ocean Blue
• Party
• Holiday
• Team Colors

The homeowner does not need to search through a color wheel or remember the correct brightness level. The desired look is already programmed and available with one press.

Your Favorite Music Is One Button Away

Whole-home audio is another area where customized buttons can make a major difference in everyday convenience.

Starting music from a phone can involve several steps. You may need to unlock the device, open an app, choose a service, select a playlist, choose a room, and adjust the volume.

A customized Control4 button can reduce that entire process to one simple action.

Buttons can be programmed to start favorite stations, playlists, streaming services, audio zones, or even specific genres of music.

Music buttons could include:

• Jazz
• Country
• Classic Rock
• Chill
• Top Hits
• Dinner Music
• Workout
• Party
• Favorites
• Patio Music

Pressing Jazz in the kitchen could begin playing a favorite jazz station through the kitchen and breakfast-area speakers at a comfortable preset volume.

Pressing Party could activate upbeat music throughout the living room, kitchen, patio, and pool area while also adjusting the lighting for entertaining.

Pressing Relax in the primary suite could play a calming playlist, lower the lights, close the shades, and create a comfortable evening environment.

This makes music easier for everyone to enjoy, including family members and guests who may not have access to the homeowner’s phone, passwords, or music applications.

Simple Shade Control and Privacy Scenes

Motorized shades improve comfort, privacy, energy efficiency, and protection from direct sunlight. However, their full benefit is realized when they are simple to operate.

Lux keypads can provide clearly labeled shade buttons that control one window, one room, several rooms, or the entire home.

Shade buttons may include:

• Open
• Close
• Sheers
• Blackout
• Privacy
• Afternoon
• Movie
• Goodnight

A customized Afternoon scene could lower the shades on the side of the home receiving direct sunlight while leaving the remaining shades open.

A Privacy button could close the necessary shades throughout the main living areas without requiring the homeowner to control each window individually.

A Movie button could lower the shades, dim the room lights, and prepare the entertainment system at the same time.

One Button Can Prepare an Entire Room

The true power of a customized keypad is its ability to coordinate several smart-home systems together.

Instead of thinking about individual devices, the homeowner can simply choose the activity or environment they want.

Movie Night

Pressing Movie Night could turn on the television or projector, select the preferred streaming source, lower the shades, dim the lights, and set the audio system to the proper level.

Game Day

A Game Day button could turn on multiple televisions, select the appropriate sports sources, activate music in the kitchen and outdoor areas, and adjust the lighting for entertaining.

Dinner

A Dinner button could create warm lighting in the kitchen and dining room, lower selected shades, and begin playing soft background music.

Morning

A Morning scene could gradually brighten the lights, open the shades, adjust the temperature, and begin playing a favorite news station or playlist.

Goodnight

A Goodnight button could turn off selected lights, televisions, and music zones, lower the shades, adjust the thermostat, lock connected doors, and prepare the security system.

The exact functions can be customized based on the equipment installed, the homeowner’s preferences, and the desired level of automation.

Less Dependence on Phones and Touchscreens

Mobile apps and touchscreens remain valuable because they provide detailed control over the entire smart-home system. However, they should not be required for every common action.

You should not have to find your phone just to turn on a favorite playlist, close the shades, or set the lights for dinner.

You should not have to carry a tablet from room to room or navigate through several screens to begin watching television.

Customized Lux keypads place the most important controls directly on the wall, exactly where they are needed.

A button near the garage entry can activate the Welcome Home scene. A keypad near the bed can provide Goodnight, Privacy, and Morning controls. A keypad near the patio can offer Outdoor Music, Entertain, and Pool Lights.

This gives homeowners quick access to their most frequently used features while keeping the phone available for more detailed adjustments when needed.

Easier for Family Members and Guests

A well-designed smart home should be easy for everyone to use, not only the person who understands the system best.

Clearly labeled buttons remove uncertainty and make the home more intuitive for spouses, children, guests, housekeepers, babysitters, and visiting family members.

There is no need to download an app, learn a complicated interface, or ask which switch controls which fixture.

When a button says Kitchen Bright, Patio Music, Movie, or All Off, its purpose is immediately clear.

This level of simplicity is especially valuable in larger homes where there may be many lighting loads, audio zones, shades, televisions, and connected systems.

Designed and Programmed Around You

No two families use their homes in exactly the same way. That is why custom programming and thoughtful keypad design are so important.

At OnPoint, we take the time to understand how each room is used, which features are accessed most often, and which routines could be simplified.

We can then create keypad layouts and personalized scenes that feel natural from the first day.

That may include simple lighting and shade controls, music genre buttons, entertainment scenes, color-changing lighting presets, whole-home routines, security functions, or a combination of several systems.

The objective is not to add unnecessary complexity. It is to place the right controls in the right locations and make the technology disappear into the experience of the home.

Make Your Smart Home More Convenient

Lux by Control4 keypads offer a refined new look while making everyday smart-home control faster, easier, and more personal.

With customized buttons for lighting, shades, music, entertainment, colors, routines, and complete scenes, your favorite home experiences are always one press away.

No searching for your phone. No navigating through multiple applications. No guessing which switch controls what.

Just press the button, and your home responds.
