Larry, do you have an example (maybe a link) of the silicone clamps? I can't seem to find them. TIA

I got the 'that command does not work with that device' response 4 times in a row. 3x for 'Alexa set thermostat to 75 degrees' & 1x for 'Alexa turn on master vanity light'. Tried thermostat command again a minute later & it worked. This is frustrating, as much as I love the echo & the bleeding edge of HA I get really concerned w/ cloud services & reliability issues, especially the idea that we have no control over it & what happens when Amazon breaks something or decides to go a different direction or no longer support? At least w/ non-cloud based hardware you can usually expect it to work as required for the life of the device. Sorry for the semi-rant, it's just that this behavior & ridiculous response from Amazon support is not leaving me w/ a warm & fuzzy feeling...

I'm using the Java BWS emulator & having this issue today

I'm having this exact same issue today. Haven't changed anything on my end so I'm assuming it's something on Amazon's end.

I agree Barry, I've thought this since I got the echo. Would also be nice if they started supporting other music services (i.e. Spotify, etc). Also would be nice if the next hardware version has a multi -type audio out connector like the new google chromecast audio (1/8" jack/mini toslink).

Spare room/spare bedroom (not sure if i missed it on your list). Also, I don't know if guest's room is something anyone would say, I would think it should be guest room. Also, can we add 'studio', 'shop', 'outside', 'small', 'large'. Thanks!

Agree with Jon, I use 'Media Room' for one of my areas

I agree w/ Randy (though I doubt Amazon will change this in the near future). I have quite a few device names that don't match the master list of utterances & I'm not really keen on changing the names.

Also make sure you're not running Windows firewall (or at least open up those ports).

I don't know about anyone else but I would never say 'master's bedroom' or 'master's room', i would however say 'master bedroom' or 'master room'.

'Alexa, tell izzy to switch ON master bedroom' works but 'Alexa, tell izzy to switch OFF master bedroom' just comes back with 'which device?' over & over. Checked in the Alexa app and its understanding the utterance correctly.

I know this is probably a dumb question but I bought the portal about a month ago but don't know how to set it up, is there a link with clear instructions on how to do this?

themlruts, I was having the same issue with newer versions of the HA bridge, I was able to fix the problem by going to Windows firewall and allowing all connections for the correct Java version. Not sure why this changed, I didn't have this issue with previous versions of the HA bridge. I also tried the UPNP setting but it didn't help.

Not sure if this is the correct place for this question but here it is: Is there a reason that the DB KPLs (2334-222) do NOT show up in the ISY admin console as dual-band devices in the name? It seems slightly confusing since almost all other devices show up with this indicator. It shows up as "(2334-2) KeypadLinc Dimmer 8 Buttons v.XX"

I think w/ a thermostat it would be good to know the ambient temp & the heat/cool set point. I actually think the current set point would be more useful but getting both back on a single call would be nice.
