    @ JosefJantzen
    I successfully installed and integrated the Alexa Control module. I have a Pi 3B and an Alexa DOT alexa (3 gen). I had no issues in pairing it with my Alexa device. I also use MMM-Pages. After configuring, Alexa has assigned the device id to each page. I can easily switch between pages by giving the command “Alexa turn on page3” or “Alexa turn on page6” etc. Apparently Alexa has configured the commands as a WEMOS device (On and Off).
    My question is that is it possible to change the command word of Alexa to *“Alexa show me page3” or “Show me page 7” etc?
    Thanks!

          @Rags said in MMM_Alexa Control: Alexa Command words:

          Alexa turn on page6

          create routines alexa
          Alexa show me page3
          alexa => Alexa turn on page3

              @Rags it should work…

              routine, voice (show me xxx (like page 3) ) , smarthome, select device, power on

              I checked to see if I could do it
              and it works for me…

              I have a real plug for my desk light. I normally ‘turn on’ desk light /‘turn off’ desk light

              I just added

              voice , show me light
              smart home, plugs, desk, power on

              and it works…

              Alexa show me light

                @sdetweil Ok Thanks. Got it going. Only thing is Alexa does not accept numerals in command so had to write in as words.

                  @Rags correct. Alexa only knows the sound of words
