Hello, I have a problem with the Echo show being able to show any alarm.com Z-Wave devices on the Smart Home Screen for control. I have both alarm.com skills installed. With that being said I am able to speak to Alexa and lock/unlock, turn lights on/off, and adjust thermostats just fine. So, the devices are being read into the Amazon account with discover devices. But, they are not being showed on the echo. I believe the device type being scanned in is the problem. All the z-wave devices from the settings within the Amazon Alexa App are showing the type as other. On my sons amazon account with just z-wave devices (some the same as I have) no alarm.com account. The devices are showing in the type field as a light, switch, etc. On my panel the z-wave lights are showing as light, locks as lock, etc. I believe there is an issue with alarm.com’s Alexa skill importing the proper type.
Can you verify this? I have been working with this for 3-4 days. I have removed, deleted, reinstalled the skill and devices. Searched all over the web, etc. I am afraid there is nothing else to be done other that an update to the Alexa skill. I have not deleted the devices from the alarm.com panel for I do not believe this is the issue. The types are displaying correctly there and I do not wish to remove all and reinstall. That would take a good 1/2 day to go through all.
I would also be curious if anyone else is seeing the same.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
Take care,
Frank
