Hi everyone,
I have a question about connecting devices that do not link directly to Hubitat.
We have smart shades and screens (Zigbee-based) that wouldn't connect to Hubitat directly. To solve this, we bought their dedicated hub (CalypsHome), which successfully connected to them. Through the CalypsHome app, we can create routines (e.g., opening/closing at specific times), and we also linked the hub to Alexa.
Now, we have two questions:
- Is there a way to connect Hubitat to these devices via Alexa?
- Since the shades and screens are connected to the CalypsHome hub, and this hub is linked to Alexa, is there a way for Hubitat to access what Alexa sees?
- Ideally, we'd like to create a routine where, if the temperature exceeds 21°C, the screens automatically close.
- Alexa only found the shades, not the screens.
- After linking Alexa to the CalypsHome hub via the Skills & Games section, only the shades were detected, while the screens were not.
- We tried disabling/re-enabling the skill, but no change.
- Is there a method to force Alexa to detect missing devices?
Thanks a lot for your help!
All the best,
Yiannis
