Markaa waxaan dhawaan iibsaday Amazon Echo iyo Belkin WeMo beddelka waxaanan maqlay in labada la wada isticmaali karo. Ka dib markii aan ku ciyaaray agagaarka labada qalab, waxaan ku guuleystey inaan ogaado sida loo xakameeyo beddelka WeMo anigoo^(WeMo) la hadlaya Alexa ee Echo .

Waxa ugu weyn ee ku saabsan isticmaalka beddelka WeMo ee Echo waa in ay shaqeyso iyada oo aan loo baahnayn inaad ku rakibto xirfad dhinac saddexaad ah Echo ama iibso xarun. Saddexda aaladood ee WeMo ee si toos ah ula shaqeeya Alexa waa WeMo Light Switch , WeMo Switch iyo WeMo Insight Switch .

Guud ahaan, runtii way fududahay in wax walba la habeeyo, laakiin sidoo kale waxaan xusi doonaa qaar ka mid ah talooyinka cilad-raadinta haddii ay dhacdo inay ku shaqayn waydo isku dayga ugu horreeya.

Habee WeMo Switch

Waxa ugu horreeya ee aad rabto inaad sameyso waa ku xidhida WeMo Switch^{(WeMo Switch)} shabakadaada WiFi oo hubi inay ka muuqato abka WeMo . Waa in aad shidi kartaa oo aad dami kartaa adiga oo isticmaalaya badhanka quwadda ee midigta fog.

Haddii aad taabato falaarta hoose ee yar, waa inay balaadhisaa si ay kuu tusto xoogaa isticmaalka awoodda ah (kaliya ee WeMo Insight beddelka).

Hadda waxa jira laba shay oo ay tahay in aan ku samayno gudaha app-ka WeMo ka hor inta aannaan ku xidhin Alexa . Marka hore, waa inaad beddelka u magacawdaa beddelkaaga wax aan ahayn magaca caadiga ah. Magac kasta oo aad halkan ku bixiso waa waxa aad u wacayso marka aad la hadasho Alexa . Markaa haddii aad u magacowdo furaha, talaajad^(Fridge) , waxaad awoodi doontaa inaad tidhaahdo “ Alexa, dami talaajadda^{(Alexa, turn off the fridge)} ” wayna fulin doontaa. Si aad tan u samayso, ku dhufo^(Edit) badhanka wax ka beddelka ee sare ka dibna taabo furaha aad rabto inaad magac beddelo.

Haddii aad ku isticmaasho nambarada magaca, hubi inaad qorto lambarka intii aad isticmaali lahayd qiimaha nambarada. Taabo Save oo daaranuhu waa inuu hadda yeesho magac cusub. Waxa labaad ee ay tahay in aan samayno waa in aan awoodno helitaanka fog. Si tan loo sameeyo, taabo in ka badan^(More) oo ku yaal xagga hoose ee abka.

Waxaad arki doontaa ikhtiyaarka la yiraahdo Helitaanka Fog^{(Remote Access)} . Sida caadiga ah, waxay tusi doontaa Lama shaqayn ^{(Not Enabled)}Horey u soco oo taabo ka dibna taabo Inable Remote Access^{(Enable Remote Access)} . Tani kaliya kuma oggolaan doonto inaad maamusho beddelka meel kasta oo adduunka ah, laakiin waxay sidoo kale u oggolaan doontaa Alexa inay maamusho beddelka.

Waa in aad heshaa fariin sheegaysa in meel fog laga galo oo aad ka maamuli karto furaha meel kasta oo aad internet ka gasho.

Soo ogow Aaladaha adoo isticmaalaya Alexa

Marka aan ku samaynay labadaas shay ee barnaamijka WeMo , waxaan hadda u gudbi karnaa abka Alexa . Fur abka, ku dhufo saddexda xariiq ee toosan ee bidixda sare ka dibna taabo Smart Home .

Shaashadan waxay u qaybsantaa saddex qaybood: kooxo, xirfado iyo qalab. Kooxuhu waxay^(Groups) kuu oggolaanayaan inaad ku maamusho qalabyo badan oo leh hal amar. Tusaale ahaan, haddii aad haysatid saddex weel oo WeMo ah^(WeMo) , waxaad abuuri kartaa koox la yiraahdo Bedroom Lights ka dibna si fudud u dheh " Alexa, dami nalalka qolka jiifka. ^{(Alexa, turn off the bedroom lights.)}”

Hoosta Xirfadaha Guriga ee Smart^{(Smart Home Skills)} , waxaad awood u siin kartaa xirfadaha badeecadaha ka yimid shirkado kala duwan. Xagga sare^(Above) , waxaad arki kartaa inaan karti u yeeshay xirfadda TP-LINK Kasa sababtoo ah waxaan haystaa beddelka TP-LINK. Ugu dambeyntii, hoosta Qalabkaaga^{(Your Devices)} , waxaad ku dari kartaa qalab cusub adiga oo ku dhejinaya qalabka Discover^{(Discover devices)} .

Alexa hadda waxay bilaabi doontaa raadinta aaladaha, kaas oo qaadan doona wax ka yar hal daqiiqo. Marka raadinta la dhammeeyo, waa inaad aragto aaladda ku hoos qoran Qalabkaaga^{( Your Devices)} .

Taasi waa wax aad u qurux badan! Hadda waad fiicantahay inaad tagto. Waa inaad awood u leedahay inaad u tixraacdo beddelka magaciisa markaad la hadlayso Alexa . Kaliya^(Just) dheh " Alexa, turn off/on switchname."Haddii wax walba si fiican u socdaan, Alexa wuxuu dhihi doonaa OK waana taas. Waxaad gacanta ku tagi kartaa abka WeMo oo waa inaad aragto gobolka beddelka oo la beddelay.

Haddii aad ku barato arrimo jidka, waxaa jira dhowr waxyaalood oo aad sameyn karto:

1. Hubi^(Make) in Amazon Echo uu leeyahay qalabkii ugu dambeeyay ee lagu rakibay. Waxa aad tan samayn kartaa adiga oo hubiya in ay ku xidhan tahay WiFi oo shid. Echo ayaa si toos ah u hubin doonta oo iskeed^(Echo) u cusbooneysiin doonta haddii cusbooneysiin la heli karo.
2. Hubi^(Make) in furaha WeMo^(WeMo) uu leeyahay qalabkii ugu dambeeyay ee la rakibay. Markaad furto app-ka WeMo , waxay ku ogeysiin doontaa wax kasta oo casriyeyn ah oo firmware ah oo waxaad ka samayn kartaa gudaha abka.
3. Haddii Alexa uusan heli karin qalabkaaga WeMo , hubi in Echo uu ku xiran yahay shabakadda WiFi ee 2.4 GHz^{(GHz WiFi)} , haddii aad leedahay router laba-band ah. Unugyada WeMo kaliya waxay ku xiran yihiin 2.4 GHz , markaa haddii Echoagu^(Echo) uu ku jiro shabakadda 5 GHZ , waxay keeni kartaa arrimo.

Waxaan rajeyneynaa, hagahan ayaa ku kicin doona oo aad la socon doontaa Alexa iyo WeMo si aad u hesho guri caqli badan oo xiiso leh. Nasiib darro, Belkin wuxuu sheegay in aaladaha WeMo aysan taageeri doonin HomeKit^(HomeKit) , marka xakameynta nalalkaaga Siri ma dhici doonto waqti dhow. Aniga ahaan, Alexa wuxuu sameyn karaa wax badan oo ka badan kan kantaroolka qalabka guriga ee smart, sidaas darteed haddii aad hore u leedahay Echo , waxaa laga yaabaa inay ku haboon tahay inaad iibsato WeMo furayaasha maadaama ay si fiican u wada shaqeeyaan. Haddii aad wax su'aalo ah qabtid, xor u noqo inaad faallo ka bixiso. Ku raaxayso!

How to Control a WeMo Insight Switch using Alexa & Echo

So I recently bought an Amazon Echо and a Belkin WeMo switch and I heard that the two could bе used together. After playing around with the two devices for a bit, I managed to figure out how to control my WeMo switch by talking to Alexa on the Echo.

The great thing about using a WeMo switch with the Echo is that it works without requiring you to install a third-party skill on the Echo or buying a hub. The three WeMo devices that work directly with Alexa are the WeMo Light Switch, WeMo Switch and WeMo Insight Switch.

Overall, it’s really easy getting everything setup, but I’ll also mention some troubleshooting tips in case it doesn’t work on the first try.

Configure WeMo Switch

The first thing you’re going to want to do is connect your WeMo Switch to your WiFi network and make sure it is showing up in the WeMo app. You should be able to turn it on and off using the virtual power button at the far right.

If you tap on the little down arrow, it should expand to show you some power usage stats (only for the WeMo Insight switch).

Now there are two things we have to do inside the WeMo app before we can get it connected to Alexa. Firstly, you should rename your switch to something other than the default name. Whatever name you give it here is what you’ll have to call it when you talk to Alexa. So if you name the switch, Fridge, you’ll be able to say “Alexa, turn off the fridge” and it will comply. To do this, tap on the Edit button at the top and then tap on the switch you want to rename.

If you use numbers in the name, make sure to spell out the number instead of using the numerical value. Tap Save and the switch should now have a new name. The second thing we have to do is enable remote access. To do this, tap on More located at the bottom of the app.

You will see an option called Remote Access. By default, it will show Not Enabled. Go ahead and tap on it and then tap on Enable Remote Access. This will not only allow you to control the switch from anywhere in the world, but it will also allow Alexa to control the switch.

You should get a message stating that remote access has been enabled and you can control the switch from anywhere that you have Internet access.

Discover Devices using Alexa

Once we have done those two things in the WeMo app, we can now move over to the Alexa app. Open the app, tap on the three horizontal lines at the top left and then tap on Smart Home.

This screen is broken down into three sections: groups, skills and devices. Groups allow you to control multiple devices with one command. For example, if you have three WeMo switches, you can create a group called Bedroom Lights and then simply say “Alexa, turn off the bedroom lights.”

Under Smart Home Skills, you can enable skills for products from different companies. Above, you can see I have enabled the TP-LINK Kasa skill because I have a TP-LINK switch. Finally, under Your Devices, you can add new devices by tapping on Discover devices.

Alexa will now start looking for devices, which should take less than a minute. Once the search is complete, you should see the device listed under Your Devices.

That’s pretty much it! You’re now good to go. You should be able to reference the switch by its name when talking to Alexa. Just say “Alexa, turn off/on switchname.” If all goes well, Alexa will just say OK and that’s it. You can manually go check in the WeMo app and you should see the switch state has been changed.

If you run into issues along the way, there are a couple of things you can do:

1. Make sure your Amazon Echo has the latest firmware installed. You can do this by making sure it’s connected to WiFi and turned on. The Echo will check automatically and update itself if an update is available.
2. Make sure the WeMo switch has the latest firmware installed. When you open the WeMo app, it will notify you of any firmware upgrades and you can do it from within the app.
3. If Alexa can’t find your WeMo device, make sure the Echo is connected to the 2.4 GHz WiFi network, if you have a dual-band router. The WeMo units only connect to 2.4 GHz, so if your Echo is on the 5 GHZ network, it could cause issues.

Hopefully, this guide will get you up and running with Alexa and WeMo for a more fun smart home. Unfortunately, Belkin has said the WeMo devices will not support HomeKit, so controlling your lights from Siri won’t happen anytime soon. For me, Alexa can do a lot more than just control smart home devices, so if you already have an Echo, it might be worth buying WeMo switches since they work well together. If you have any questions, feel free to comment. Enjoy!
