Wattsup Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Hi all, I'm in !! New Zealand and just encountered a problem with alexa voice control - Amazon echo has just been released (officially) and I received an email that stated I should change my amazon account to the.com.au domain with English(AU) as the language preference. I've had my Dot in the C4 system for about 12 months having purchased on a trip to the UK. My Amazon account had always been.com (US) and shipping had been via a postal service. I didn't have the Epic driver yet but am looking to add soon ( I have the native voice scenes driver). since making these two simple changes the Control 4 skill has gone and can't be found and I can't enable it to run device discovery. I've signed out/in on the app and lots of good things occurred, weather localised, flash briefing localised, etc etc but no Control 4 skill?? Tune in and Spotify also disappeared but after logging in/out again they came back, as did hydrawise. The other skill I'm missing is Ring video doorbell? Any ideas whether control 4 & Ring will reappear in the skills if I wait for the cloud to update or are they only available to US/UK accounts??

msgreenf Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 The skill has to be released for that region and it has not been yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wattsup Posted January 25, 2018 Author Share Posted January 25, 2018 Bugger had a sinking feeling.... Any idea how long this might be or would the Epic driver work? Many thanks for the quick 👌 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 the epic driver will work. No idea when Control4 will release the skill there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wattsup Posted January 25, 2018 Author Share Posted January 25, 2018 Ok that's good to know - any idea if the blackwire ring driver would work as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Blackwire ring works regardless of where you are. I am happy to sell and install it for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k3nnis Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Hi, How does ring integrate with alexa? What commands can you give it? Assuming using blackwire ring driver. Thanks, K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wattsup Posted January 30, 2018 Author Share Posted January 30, 2018 Without the blackwire driver you can enable the alexa skill and intergrate Ring with Alexa as per the details given on the website: https://www.amazon.com/Ring-Video-Doorbell/dp/B01JTL2PYE and/or you can intergrate with control 4 using the blackwire driver which gives the ability to programme off events triggered by Ring - typically 'presses' or ' motion'. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
