andrew77 Posted Tuesday at 02:41 PM Posted Tuesday at 02:41 PM I have a handful of those Eightree/Teckin/whatever their name is this week round smart plugs you can buy on Amazon. I can control them through Alexa voice control but I'd love to control them with my Insteon mini remote. I have the EISY and was wondering if thats now possible? Andrew Quote
larryllix Posted Tuesday at 06:10 PM Posted Tuesday at 06:10 PM (edited) Simplest way is to create STATE variables with meaningful names. Then use ISY Portal to emulate MS devices from each one with 1 value = On , 0 value = Off. Now use Alexa app to create Alaxa Routines using those pseudoMS elements as triggers to do whatever you want Alexa to do. After I defined a group of dedicated STATE variable I created an ISY program that is triggered by any STATE variable becoming a non-zero value and WAIT 10 seconds and then set the whole group of STATE variable back to 0 again. This saves many programs, one for each STATE variable by just writing one program for all. To use: Set $sAlexa.do.whatever to 1 Reset sSay variables - [ID 006F][Parent 0002][Run At Startup] If // [Run at Startup] enabled $sSay.motionOutsideDoor is not 0 Or $sSay.occupancyTimerExpiring is not 0 Or $sSay.securityViolated is not 0 Or $sSay.welcomeHome is not 0 Or $sSay.systemArming is not 0 Or $sSay.systemDisarmed is not 0 Or $sSay.goodBye is not 0 Or $sSay.turnOnLights is not 0 Or $sSay.systemArmed is not 0 Or $sz_40 is not 0 Or $sSay.blindLowBatt is not 0 Or $sSay.blindJammed is not 0 Or $sz_43 is not 0 Or $sz_44 is not 0 Or $sz_45 is not 0 Or $sz_46 is not 0 Or $sz_47 is not 0 Or $sz_48 is not 0 Then Wait 10 seconds $sSay.motionOutsideDoor = 0 $sSay.occupancyTimerExpiring = 0 $sSay.securityViolated = 0 $sSay.welcomeHome = 0 $sSay.systemArming = 0 $sSay.systemDisarmed = 0 $sSay.goodBye = 0 $sSay.turnOnLights = 0 $sSay.systemArmed = 0 $sz_40 = 0 $sSay.blindLowBatt = 0 $sSay.blindJammed = 0 $sz_43 = 0 $sz_44 = 0 $sz_45 = 0 $sz_46 = 0 $sz_47 = 0 $sz_48 = 0 Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Edited Tuesday at 06:16 PM by larryllix Quote
