    Button Activation

    I would like to have one voice command control 2 different buttons.

    Voice Command, "Turn on the TV"
    -Activated Omni button, "TV ON (46)"

    Voice Command, "Turn off the TV"
    -Activated Omni button, "TV OFF (47)"

    How can I set this up?
    Do you have a help screen or Wiki on the details of this plugin?

    Thanks for the help

    Create a virtual device called "TV" or whatever you want to call it. Post again if you need help with that. Make sure the "voice command" box is checked on the configuration tab for the new device.

    Then, create two events. The first, call "TV On". This will look for the virtual device you created above to change and become "on" at which time it will run your OMNI "TV on" button.

    The second, call "TV Off" and have it look for your virtua device to change and become "off", and to then run your OMNI "TV Off" button.

    Tell Alexa to discover devices, via the Alexa app.

    See my events, below. These are written for a virtual device called "cigar" and run two OMNI buttons, "Cigar On" and "Cigar Off".

        Thanks, that worked.

        The only thing I did different was,
        instead of "This device changes and becomes"
        I used "This device had its value set to"

        This allowed HS to send the OFF command even when it thought it was already off.
