First the issue i mentioned was if the internet goes out as did the article i posted a link to. If you loose internet, you can't talk to Siri or Alexa! Second the if you are using a skill that is the way you have to interact with Alexa. The Bridge that was mentioned is a software emulation of a hardware bridge that was developed by BWS Systems. It allows you to turn on or off HAL devices or execute macros via Alexa with out saying tell HAL... Call me sometime and I will explain further if you like. Cheers, Tim __________________ Tim Shriver Home Automated Living Last edited by TimShriver; 07-15-2016 at 02:47 PM. Reason: update
