@larryllix it's no different than manually switching on that light.

Context-aware Alexa with an ISY
It works with only devices in that group. However, you can turn other lights on and off with that same echo device by using the Alexa spoken name. For example, if I walk ion the bedroom and say Alexa turn on the light, the ceiling light turns on. If I walk into the room and say Alexa turn on the bedside lamp, the bedside lamp turns on. Or I could say Alexa turn on any other device and it would turn that device on. As long as you have a spoken for that device in Alexa.

Context-aware Alexa with an ISY
By using the group feature in the Alexa app you can assign individual echo devices and other devices like switches to a group. This allows you to walk the room with that group and say, "Alexa, turn on the light" and the light will turn on. It's a nice feature.

Ring Polyglot Cloud
Does that sound right? Yes this correct. Don't have time to look at programs and see if they have support for ringing the bell and motion being detected but it sound reasonable they would. Programs do support the doorbell ringing and doorbell motion. Be sure to select "Control" in your program.

Doorbell cameras that integrate with ISY
My adm console shows the same thing as yours. So, it seems like you have it set up properly. I have a notify program for my Ring doorbell and a Ring Stick-up cam and both work fine. I do use "control" in the "If" condition of the programs.

New Inseton Devices Not Appearing in Portal
If you had the portal open when you added the devices to your ISY, pressing the refresh button on the ISY portal should add those devices to your device list.

Some Alexa Routines won't function??
@larryllix , Interesting, I use state variables defined as an MS and the routines work as expected. Did Alexa discover your state variable after you added it to Alexa in the portal?

When will the new firmware be released?
Polyglot cloud does not require a PC or RPI to run. You will need a computer to access the Polyglot Cloud dashboard. The dashboard is to Polyglot cloud as the admin console is to the ISY

It works great with the Alexa app.

Stelpro Thermostat Setpoint Problem
@Michel Kohanim your efforts are greatly appreciated. It was more of an inconvenience than a serious problem. There are so many companies that could benefit greatly by modeling their customer service after yours. Thank you!!

Stelpro Thermostat Setpoint Problem
I also tried changing from Fahrenheit to Celsius and back to Fahrenheit again with the same results. Stelpro tells me they don't support the ISY controller. So there's no help there. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Stelpro Thermostat Setpoint Problem
I have two Stelpro thermostats controlling baseboard heaters. They have worked great. The issue I'm having is trying to change the setpoint using the admin console, Mobilinc, and AGave. When changing the setpoint on the thermostat manually, each click changes the setpoint by +-1 degree. In the admin console, each click of the setpoint of the up/down arrows changes the setpoint by +- .1 degree. To increase the thermostat setpoint by 1 degree using the admin console, the up arrow must be clicked at least five times to get to at least the current setpoint.5 setting. To decrease the thermostat setpoint by 1 degree the admin console down button must be clicked at least seven times to get to at least current setpoint.3 setting. Of course, the desired temperature can be manually entered into the admin console and that changes the thermostat temperature as expected. The larger problem is when trying to change the thermostat setpoint up or down using Mobilinc or Agave, one click of the up or down in button in both apps causes the thermostat setpoint to go to 86 degrees. This is the maximum setting for the thermostat. The only way to get the setpoint changed at this point is to use the admin console or manually change the setpoint on the thermostat. This happened at one of the upgrades, as when I first installed the thermostats this was not a problem. I think it happened when changing from 4.xxx to 5.xxx current I am using 5.014. Is there anything that can be done to remedy this situation?

Current Backlight level
Querying the device does not change the setting from 0. At least not for me.
-
Current Backlight level
Once you change the setting it will reflect the setting you changed to. Then you can change it to another setting if you wish to do so and it will reflect that setting. You need to make a change to get it to reflect something different than 0. However, when you close and reopen the admin console the reading will go back to 0, but the backlight will still be set at what it was set the last time.

Current Backlight level
I have the ability to set the backlight level in V5.0.14. What is the device you are trying to set the backlight level?

How to send an Alexa notification when leak sensor detects water
I agree, an Insteon siren or Z-Wave siren if your ISY has Zwave most likely would provide a higher level of reliability. You could also use both, a siren and a routine.

How to send an Alexa notification when leak sensor detects water
You should be able to use routines to accomplish what you want to. Have you read through this?

MyQ
Before I installed the polyglot solution on my Chamberlain opener, I installed a GoControl/Linear GD00Z-4 Z-Wave Garage Door Opener Remote Controller . It doesn't control the garage door but does report the status of the garage door to the ISY and you can then use that status in your programs. It works well for me.

Communication issues with Z-wave and KPL
@deirwin , Did you perform network heal to your Z-Wave network after you moved your ISY? If not, you may want to do that and see if your Z-Wave communications improve.

Strange Issue with Alexa Routine invoking Insteon Scene
It works perfectly now Benoit!! Thank you!!

Strange Issue with Alexa Routine invoking Insteon Scene
Benoit, I have a similar situation with a routine that has a scene in it. The routine turns the scene off. If the scene is turned on when the routine is run, it turns off the scene as its supposed to. If the scene is off when the routine is run, the scene will flash on and then turn the scene off. When adding the scene to the routine, it will not allow the scene to be turned off. Instead, it can only be dimmed to 1%. It makes no difference if I run the routine manually or through Alexa, the results are the same.
