HmIP-SPI -> Alexa -> LIFX

Beitrag von Foggy3657 » 11.01.2021, 15:38

Hello / Servus All,

I have just purchased HmIP-HAP-UK (Access point) and HmIP-SPI (Presence detector). My theory was that once set up I could link the presence detector via the Alexa skill and then create a routine through the Alexa app to switch on the LIFX bulbs.

I have Enabled / Configured the Alexa skill, however when I try to discover devices I can't see the HmIP-SPI.

Should my idea work?

If so any thoughts what I may have done incorrectly.

I am happy the Presence detector is working and connected as I can see the little man running and the disappearing after a short time.

Best wishes.

James.

Hi,

Alexa just creates simple routines not as advanced as you wish.

Alternative: ConradConnect Cloud (I think one routine is for free)

Or you install on a RaspberryPi - Home Assistant or ioBroker - connect your devices there and create the link/routines inbetween.

Thank you for your comment.

I have now managed to do what I want through Home Assistant.

Best wishes.

James.
