Philips Hue Bulb Driver Integration with Alexa

Recommended Posts

We just built a house and opted to use all Philips Hue color bulbs vs. smart switches.  We have 140 bulbs...

I do have the home version of Composer and our Dealer set up lighting groups with the drivers (three drivers because we have 3 bridges).  

I am now trying to set up voice scenes with Alexa (I create the voice command in When/Then and then switch over to Composer for the programming).

I am struggling to get this to work.  There are different channels (warmth, brightness, RGB, Color).  Also, if I create a voice command in Control4, if it is similar to something that Alexa already understands, I am not sure if that over rules the C4 command...

 

As well, Within each group I have sub-groups.  E.g. all living room lights and then sub group of living room sconces).  So controlling these two groups affects each other....

Does anyone have any experience with the C4 Hue driver?

I would like to use Alexa alone (outside of C4) as it is so much easier (ALexa, turn kitchen to blue) but two problems with this are I have more than 50 bulbs, and it is difficult to get all bulbs recognized In the Alexa app as they are on three different bridges) and I would like to pair lighting scenes with other actions (e.g. turn on fireplace).

 

THanks for any info you can provide.

 

Melissa
