By linking up with Alexa, users of Smartlux Wi-Fi Bridge (and motors) can now open or close blinds, draper, Venetians, or other motorized window coverings by giving out direct voice commands to Alexa.
You can ask Alexa to open or close individual shade or to activate a scene that moves a group of shades to pre-determined positions.
With the help of the “Routine” feature in Alexa, you can create a more native set of voice commands to activate a scene or perform group control. For example, you can say: “Alexa, it’s too dark” and link the command to a scene that opens all shades in the living room.
A few tips for users: You will need to configure a Smartlux Wi-Fi Bridge (or a Smartlux Wi-Fi Motor) together with the Smartlux App first before enabling the Alexa skill.
Please create an account, set up rooms, devices/shades, scenes, and timers properly in the Smartlux App, making sure a plain and distinctive name is assigned to rooms, shades, scenes and timers, for clear recognition with voice commands.
To establish a link-up with Alexa, you will be requested to submit the Smartlux account info, email address, and password to Alexa.
