AtlasIED Atmosphere C-T4BT – Touchscreen Wall Controller with Bluetooth

Product Overview

The AtlasIED Atmosphere C-T4BT is a 4.3-inch touchscreen wall controller with integrated Bluetooth audio input for use with the Atmosphere AZM audio system platform. Designed for commercial audio installations where local control and source flexibility are both required, the C-T4BT gives end users intuitive management of zones, sources, and system actions from a 2-gang wall-plate form factor. Its Bluetooth audio input allows any Bluetooth-enabled device to stream mono or stereo audio directly into the Atmosphere system—eliminating the need for a separate Bluetooth receiver accessory.

Product Description

The C-T4BT is part of the AtlasIED Atmosphere C-T4 series of wall controllers, which connect directly to Atmosphere AZM and AZMP head-end processors via Cat 5e cabling. Daisy-chaining is supported over distances up to 1,000 feet, giving system designers flexibility in multi-zone commercial installations without running individual cable home-runs to each controller location. The 4.3-inch programmable touchscreen interface is fully customizable within the AZM web GUI, allowing integrators to define zone assignments, source selections, and action buttons to match each space’s operational needs.

A capacitive touch volume slider provides smooth, precise level control without mechanical parts that wear over time. The C-T4BT includes a PIR motion sensor that can trigger system actions or processor behaviors based on occupancy detection—useful for automatic source switching, lighting integration hooks, or energy management in conference rooms and multi-purpose spaces. An ambient light sensor adjusts the LCD brightness automatically based on room conditions, keeping the display readable without manual intervention. Bluetooth audio uses the A2DP profile at Bluetooth Standard V4.2, with open-air range up to 100 feet, and the Bluetooth device name is customizable via the AZM web GUI. Note that Bluetooth audio on the C-T4BT is not compatible with ChromeOS devices. The C-T4BT fits standard 2-gang electrical boxes with a minimum box depth of 1.8 inches, and ships in white finish. Available at Creation Networks.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What Atmosphere processors is the C-T4BT compatible with?

A: The C-T4BT is compatible with all Atmosphere AZM and AZMP system processors running software version V4.5 or greater. It connects directly via Cat 5e cabling to the processor’s accessory port.

Q: Can multiple C-T4BT controllers be installed in a single zone?

A: Yes. Multiple controllers can be daisy-chained on a single Atmosphere AZM accessory port over distances up to 1,000 feet. Note that each accessory port supports a maximum of one audio input accessory (such as the C-T4BT Bluetooth input), but multiple controller units can share the same port.

Q: Does the Bluetooth audio input on the C-T4BT work with iOS and Android devices?

A: Yes, the C-T4BT is compatible with iOS, Android, and most Bluetooth-enabled devices using the A2DP audio profile. Note that ChromeOS devices are not currently supported for Bluetooth audio with the C-T4BT.

Q: What cabling does the C-T4BT require?

A: The C-T4BT requires Cat 5e or better cabling to connect to the Atmosphere AZM processor. The minimum wall box depth required is 1.8 inches (with Cat cable installed), and the controller fits a standard 2-gang electrical box.

Q: Can the touchscreen interface be customized per installation?

A: Yes. The zone assignments, source selections, action buttons, and Bluetooth device name displayed on the C-T4BT are all configurable through the Atmosphere AZM web-based GUI. This allows integrators to tailor each controller to the specific operational needs of the space.

Q: Does the PIR motion sensor require separate programming?

A: The PIR motion sensor integrates with the Atmosphere AZM processor and is configured through the AZM web GUI. Behaviors triggered by motion detection—such as source switching or system wake-up—are defined during system programming.

Q: What is the warranty on the C-T4BT?

A: The AtlasIED Atmosphere C-T4BT carries a 36-month warranty from the date of purchase. For purchasing, support, and warranty service, visit Creation Networks.
