Alexa sees multiple device names
Today I got my answer from A very good tech at Amazon she to saw the same thing I was looking at. At some point a skill that was used or older version of the optimize skill was disabled. This older version was not removed completely. They are working on correcting this. If you have an ISY do not use the Alex app to add any devices or scene. Only is the portal to add you already devices and scene. The Alexa app will show you all your devices and you can use it to turn them on. Do not create groups in the Alexa app. You will stand the chance of getting duplicates. This is for ISY users. Im not sure about Intranet hub users. So if you are being told by Alexa that you need to rename devices because you have more then one with the same name. GO to the Alexa app and you will see your doubles. I hope this help not so easy to explain in writing for me.

Alexa sees multiple device names
I had the same thing. I had to power down everything router Alexa all. Then I had to remove most of the scene only in the portal. Then put them back in again. It worked for two days and now it’s telling me I have Several with the same name again. Don’t bother calling Amazon. The have no idea what an isy is or the Portal. They think everyone uses their app to control everything.

Led buttons and Alexa.
I’m not sure this hasn’t been addressed. If you use Alexa to turn a device on or off or a scene on and off. How does one make a sign button that activates that scene or that device light up when it’s on and turn off when it’s off. I’m sure there’s several ways of doing it I’m sure there’s a way of doing it within the Alexa app but not sure. I’m aware that there’s a way of doing it in the programming of the I SY but again I’m not sure. I like to hear others ideas of how they made this work.

Alexa operates unwanted devices
Disable your Alexa skill. Now try the same thing by the other means which you activate your device whether it be your computer or an app and see if the same thing happens

Questions Diming and Keypad via Echo
I know this might of been talked about. I had it working but I delete it and forgot how I did it. So here it goes. When you set up a device on your keypad and use echo to control it. (Device only ) the keypad button will like up only if its load bearing. Example turn on living room light. The keypad marked living room light will light up along with the light and you can dim it to. That's because its the main load key button. A So now You want to turn on a module for an end table light and it's linked button is marked end table on the kepad. echo will turn on and even dim the end table light but the key pad mark end table doesn't light LED E I have the keypad led set up as a device too. LED E I cant remember how I got the two to work at the same time with a voice command. yes I can create scene but you cant dim scene to a percent . I remember doing this threw alexa app but I don't remember. Any idea. I just cant seem to remember how I did it
