I’m a relative newbie. I have a mix of smart products, including an Insteon hub. I’d like to use a Wyze motion detector to turn on an Insteon switch. Can this be done? I’ve looked at IFTTT, and while it supports Wyze, I don’t see an action for Insteon. And while Yonmi supports Insteon, I don’t see any mention of Wyze!
If it matters, I also have Alexa devices which “talk” to both Insteon and Wyze–but I don’t know of a way of using this for them to talk to each other.
There must be a way to do this–any advice or suggestions?? Thanks in advance.
You could use an Alexa routine.
EX: Select “When this happens” then “smart home” then select your sensor. Next, select the “add an action” and add “turn on”
Thank you. And I thought it would work–but apparently the motion sensor isn’t supported. I get an error not in Alexa
“This device not currently supported”. The other Wyze products seem to be supported–camera motion detection, open/close sensor–but not the motion. But thank you!
Yo may need to rescan for devices in the Alexa app because it should be there. I use both Wyze contact sensors and Motion sensors in Alexa Routines all the time. I have a motion sensor that turns on lights on my porch, a contact sensor in my mailbox that triggers Alexa to announce the mail is here, etc.
Thanks again. I did do a rescan and nothing changed. BUT I came back about an hour later, and lo and behold, now the motion sensor was usable in a routine. So it works–I have a bit more delay than I’d like, but I can deal with that later. Thanks for your help!.
