Can someone direct me to step by step instructions on making this work with Mobilinc? I did pretty good with setting everything up, but I'm definitely a little in the dark with the correct procedure to make this work. I've been able to pretty much automate all my lights with voice commands thru Echo using IFTTT recipes. All this from a mom who could barely change a light bulb a couple of years ago.

I contacted Mobilinc and they said the app can not be used if the ISY portal is being used. I explained in order to use the Amazon Echo with the ISY I needed to switch to the ISY portal, and they said it basically makes Mobilinc inoperable for the functions I need. Is there some work around? Or, is there another program I can use to view what lights are on and control them remotely?

Forgive me for asking a basic question, but how can I add a second echo to my connected home. I want them to them to control the same devices universally. I do not want them location based only. Second, when you refer to spokens does that mean the various commands? For example, is "Turn off kitchen lights" a spoken? Lastly, when you say create a second Amazon account is that done thru the portal or on Amazon's site. Thanks in advance for the help.

Thank goodness someone at Universal Devices got back to me today, even though they were closed. I was extremely frustrated yesterday, but I now have everything up and running. Now over 70 devices are controlled by my voice through Echo. I'm definitely a happy camper. Although I still feel they should have an alternative way to cancel one portal and use another, I am impressed that someone from customer service responded over the weekend. When you buy a device most buyers expect to be able to connect and use it within the same day. With that said, I love the fact that Universal Device has developed a product that is so easy to use, that a woman who could barely change a light bulb has been able to install and connect over 70 devices (light switches, appliances, etc.). I'm feeling pretty proud.

Universal Devices needs to find an easier and faster way to disable MobiLinc Connect if you are trying to add an Amazon Echo. I purchased and received an Amazon Echo. However, I can't seem to get it set up, because only Universal Devices has the ability to disable the Mobilinc Connect portal. This is particularly frustrating because it is the weekend and Universal Devices is closed. It seems if they are requiring you to disable the MobiLinc Connect, they should provide a way to do this even when they are closed. I should not have to wait hours let alone days to get my Echo working with my ISY. In my opinion, that is unacceptable in this day and age.
