Alexa Command for turning Fanlink Motor on High, Medium or Low

Featured Replies

Posted

I connected a fanlink and then configured this in ISY Portal.  I am able to turn the fan off with "Alexa turn fan off".  I dont know what the command to turn the fan on is.  The options on Fanlink are Off, Low, Medium and High.  

 

Has anyone figured this out?

Try putting the Fanlink as a responder into 4 seperate scenes - one each for high, medium, low and off.

 

On the portal, set the spoken name on each of the 4 scenes scene respectively.

additionally, try asking Alexa to "set fan to 25%,  for medium use 60%.   Since there are three speeds you're trying to get close to 33% 66% and 99% etc....

Beyond using the scene settings this has been reliable in my setup.

Good use of controlling a device instead of a scene. If you use a KeyPad to control the fan, then the button LEDs will not indicate the correct speed. But there's a solution. Create a program for each speed plus off and use the state of the motor as a condition to run the appropriate scene.

 

BTW, the listed values are

  1%-49%     Low

50%-99%     Medium

    100%       High
