The Control4 C4-Z2IO is a Zigbee-enabled input/output (IO) module designed to seamlessly integrate various low-voltage devices and sensors into a Control4 smart home system, offering functionalities such as relay control, contact sensing, temperature/humidity monitoring, and IR control. It expands the capabilities of a Control4 system, allowing for advanced automation and monitoring by adding wireless communication for devices that might not have native Control4 integration, like door contacts, motion sensors, or even simpler appliances that can be controlled by IR or relays.
