Hi Guys, Agreed and will be done shortly. With kind regards, Michel

Hi all, More documentation can be found here: http://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=Main_Page#ISY_Portal.2FAmazon_Echo We are also going to add a comprehensive list of names that the Skill understands. With kind regards, Michel

Hi ccclapp, Here's the link to the instructions: http://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY_Portal_Admin_Console With kind regards, Michel

Hi Deane, I am so very glad to hear and thanks so very much for the update. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Jamison_IO, No integration with INSTOEN HUB is planned. ISY now works with Echo just in case that's what you are interested in. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Deane Johnson, When you want another device to join ISY, it should be as simple as Z-Wave | Include. The main question is whether or not SmartThings has a Learn feature that can import all the nodes from ISY. With kind regards, Michel

Hi 502ss, Unfortunately not. With kind regards, Michel

Hello all, The only possible reason would be that 1. What ISY considered to be the status is NOT the same when IOLinc is queried (Trigger Reverse?) 2. There's a program that depends on #1 I have seen this before with Trigger Reverse and some older IOLincs. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Deane, How did you link ISY with SmartThings? Z-Wave Controllers usually have a Learn button. Does SmartThing have one? Also, if you are using SmartThings only for Echo integration, you can use ISY directly with Echo and have the same features as SmartThings + support for scenes and programs: http://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=Main_Page#ISY_Portal.2FAmazon_Echo With kind regards, Michel

Hi larrydreher, I am so very sorry to hear. Yes, support tickets are usually handled much quicker than responses to forum posts. With kind regards, Michel

madmartian! Thanks so very much for the accolades. It does mean a LOT to me and by extension to all of us at UDI. With kind regards, Michel

Hi all, We are looking into it. With kind regards, Michel

Hello everyone, Amazon has verified that there's an issue with how Echo processes words that are not in the lists (and loses them) and they are going to fix it. In the meantime, based on extensive testing (thank you Benoit) and Amazon feedback, we just submitted our next iteration of the skill which should dramatically improve skill recognition. We need to wait for recertification! With kind regards, Michel

Hello all, Thanks you. We'll take a look. With kind regards, Michel

Hello all, Unfortunately you won't be able to have each Echo only communicate with one ISY unless you have different accounts. Currently all Echos communicate with one Portal account. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Broyd, Thank you. It's now changed to US-Canada. We'll take a look at the screen size issue. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Gerry, 1) yes 2) yes ... different syntax. Connected Home is for lighting only (on/off/dim/brighten). Skill is for more advanced things such as door locks, thermostats, energy information (shortly), etc. 3) you should use both With kind regards, Michel

Hi gduprey, With ISY skill (tell izzy to), you can simply say: Alexa, tell izzy to switch ISY With kind regards, Michel

Hi universe, The sequence is: Power, RX, TX turn on, then RX/TX turn of and then Mem blinks. If you don't have an SD Card, only Power and blinking error. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Joseph, Thanks so very much for the update. Yes, we can include Sao Paulo in the list. Consider it done. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Joseph, LeeG as always is correct. Here's the link to 4.4.2: http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/17732-release-442-beta-is-now-available/ With kind regards, Michel

Hello everyone, Thanks so very much for the feedback. Indeed quite exciting and it's working fabulously for me as well. Some answers: 1. You do need the ISY Portal and you have to link it to your Amazon Account (ISY Portal | My Profile | Link Amazon Account) 2. The mappings are those that are defined in the Portal (not ISY). So, please make sure you have those mappings 3. Programs have not yet been thoroughly tested with Connected Home but we'll be working on them soon 4. The elapsed time in ISY portal is less than a second from getting the command and initiating a call to ISY. So, once we have quantifiable metrics, we can provide the feedback to Amazon Hi nadler, a. Please make sure you follow the instructions in the first post so that your Echo is linked to ISY. In short, in your Echo app, under Connected Home, you SHOULD see ISY listed b. Please make sure you have the mappings (spoken to device) in the Portal (Select Tool | Amazon Echo) c. Please make sure your Amazon Echo account is linked to ISY (see #1) And, in my rush (out of excitement), I forgot to thank the brain behind all of this: Benoit, your hard work, diligence, and professionalism in getting all of this working is unparalleled. THANK YOU. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Joseph, You should not have any problems. This said, please do be kind enough to test DST Rules for Brazil and let us know if you have any issues. With kind regards, Michel

Hello everyone, You can now test the Connected Home feature with ISY: http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/17861-amazon-echo-connected-home-feature-beta/ With kind regards, Michel
