Control4 driver
TDC Eastlink TV Control4 Driver
Eastlink TV on Control4 over IP. Channels, navigation and playback from the Control4 remote, touchscreens and app. No IR bud stuck on the box. Free 7-day trial, $70 USD once.
What it does
Drops the Eastlink TV box into a Control4 room as a proper cable-box source. Your client gets a full TV remote in the Control4 app: number pad, channel up and down, navigation and playback. Status comes back to Control4, so the room knows when the box is online.
Supported equipment
- Eastlink TV box (SEI800ESTL)
Features
- Halo voice. Hold the mic on the Control4 Halo and say Netflix, Prime Video or Disney Plus. The box opens it.

- Guide, menu, page and DVR keys you can remap in Composer to suit the box

- Finds the box on the network and follows it if the IP changes
- One licence covers every Eastlink box on the controller
Compatibility
Built for the boxes listed above. The Eastlink box and the controller just need to be on the same network, and it pairs with the code on the TV. Runs on Control4 OS 3 and X4.
Works with your Eastlink box, or your money back.

FAQ
Need an IR emitter?
Nope. It’s all IP.
How many Eastlink boxes does one licence cover?
Every one on that controller. Same key in each instance of the driver.
Will a key from another Driver Cave driver work here?
No. Every driver has its own licence. The TDC Eastlink TV key only unlocks TDC Eastlink TV.
Can I hook it up before I buy?
Yep. A 7-day free trial is built into the download. It starts when you add the driver to the project. No key and no card. One trial per controller. Buy when you’re happy and the driver on that controller unlocks by itself.
