definition Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I am trying to get Alexa to turn on my system when I say " Alexa, I'm home " but I can figure out where to do it. It would also be cool to say " Alexa, Goodnight" and so on. Right now I have to say " Alexa, Turn on I'm home" Anyone know how to do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegreatheed Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Can't do it with the Control4 skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novice Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Unfortunately, there is no way to do this at the moment. The integration with C4 requires specialized commands to include "ON" or "OFF" unless its a Control4 light switch or thermostat. My biggest hope is Echo will open up to allow the creation of custom commands and phrases. If Amazon does that along with custom name creation and different voices (GLaDOS anyone?) then they will single handedly command the home voice control market. In any case, what you want to do is not possible at present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottGA Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Since "Alexa, I'm home" doesn't work as a trigger at the present time, has anybody come up with any good alternative phrases they use to trigger similar events? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use "Alexa, turn ON house" and the opposite "Alexa, turn OFF house." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
