One example from my earlier usage of Alexa over KNX will clarify why Alexa should be used mainly for specific scene commands rather than individual controls. A couple of years back, I got the system installed and invested in the Alexa unit. My engineer in their infinite wisdom converted all the 96 functions set on my master panel over to Alexa, so I could have complete control of every single light and every fan and every AC and every curtain in my home. Great. Now came time to script these commands so that Alexa would know what to do. Let’s start with the living room. No. Of light circuits, 8. Ok. How do we script this? Ok, let’s try, “Alexa, turn on Sofa lights.” “Alexa, turn on TV lights.” But I have multiple TVs and sofas in the house. Ok ok. How about, “Alexa, turn on living TV lights,” and “Alexa, turn on study TV lights.” That solves that. Now come to the guest room (live alone. Spare room is guest room). Now five-light circuits that really don’t have a landmark bed or cupboard or vanity to connect in my script. Some of them are just illuminating the floor. Now what. Ok, “Alexa, turn on the guest light 1, light 2, and so on.” Different scripting per room. So you see, the true benefit of using voice to command Alexa to control the home automation system is in basic commands that can do multiple things at once. Let me give you some of my most used commands.
