Hmmm. Just changed probe 1 name to display tank.

"Alexa, what is the temperature of display tank?"

"Sorry, I didn't find display tank"

Did you change it on the portal or the Alexa app?
When I changed names, I changed them in the portal then I went to Alexa app and deleted the old name device. Discovered devices again to find the one you deleted. It will come with the new name.
I didn't test if there was an easier way.

I know you can change names on the Alexa app, and theoretically it should work without having to rename in the portal, but I didn't test.

I know this is an Alexa thread but is there any chance of the RA working with Google Assistant?

I would need to look into how google handles everything.
Don't hold your breath though. It may take a while.

Certainly not trying to rush, but what sort of timeline do you have on feeding and water change mode?

So far it has been 100%!!

Feeding mode would be most useful!

Can you test feeding and water change mode?
You will need to discover devices again to enable the two modes.

Feeding mode worked nicely :)

So i'm trying to enable the skill and after the amazon login screen it takes me to the authorization page i guess and it remains blank. Any ideas?

I wasn't able to replicate.
I tried it on a new phone with a new amazon account.

I confirmed my username and password were correct by logging into the forum to double check. Same error comes up using Alexa app, Safari and Firefox. This is on ios12, not that I think that’s the issue.

Just tried again hoping this would clear itself.... no dice. Still the same issue.

I just tested the amazon/reef angel skill linking and it went through just fine.
Try resetting the forum password and try again.

That did the trick! Got the skill installed, but I'm getting device is unresponsive. I have the Wifi adapter, not the cloud adapter. Is that a problem?

It also only discovered my second relay box, not the first.

It actually only works with RA*.
I never tested with the cloud wifi attachment. It should work, but definitely not with the regular wifi attachment.

Oh.... didn't see any mention of that in this thread. That stinks :(

Are there upgrade options from the RA+ to the RA*? I have everything but the head unit, I suppose.

We don't have it in the store, but I can probably work it out with you.
You will also need the old relay expansion module because the RA* only has expansion bus and doesn't have the svga connection.
Send me a PM.

It does work with the cloud attachment. Works fine for me. When I ask for pH I have to ask it as what is the pH temp?

Hi there

Just trying Alexa with RA*. Any reason to just show my 1o relay box?

Is this still supported after the server migration?

It's on the to do list for sure, but I don't believe it is working since the migration happened
