sanders2222 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 (edited) It"s been a while since I initially set Alexa up, now I want to add a few more devices. I've added them to my Portal but when I ask Alexa to find new devices. . . Nada. I just get the "can't find . . ." response. Am I missing a step that tees up the devices for Echo's discovery?

sanders2222 Posted December 11, 2019 Author Share Posted December 11, 2019 I figured it out! What I was missing is the need to set my "Preferred ISY" to the home I am occupying! My Portal is set up with two ISYs, one for my home and 1 at a vacation home. I discovered I needed to change the Preferred ISY Mac address under the Portal USERS tab. Once I did that, Alexa was able to discover the devices I added to the portal and can now control them.. I'm providing this post as multiple ISY set ups is not covered in the Wiki to this detail. Plus when I move I will probably forget this minor detail. Now I'll have somewhere to go to find an answer to this dilemma. 2 Link to comment
