command ques

[mike cornelison]

I have several working x10 devices tha all work with batch file/agent/web TCMD and voice (on Google Home) with one exception. Floor Lamp OFF will not work with google home. Reports "could not find a command with run Floor Lamp OFF on ..... It's obviously there and works when I say "tell triggercmd to run Floor Lamp off. I use the ifttt with all of these with no issues. I just reset the URL in ifttt /web hook from triggercmd bookmarks. Any ideas?

@mike-cornelison said in command ques:

Mike please try again. I saw your voice commands and saw that Google kept interpreting Floor Lamp Off incorrectly. I added that to Google's training, so I bet it will work now.

Thanks Russ it is working. I am trying to create a second account on a different computer for my wife but I get an install error on the agent. I have downloaded it a couple of times so it must be on this end. I can view the log file but it doesn't mean anything to me. Help please

[Russ]

@cc, did you try uninstalling from Add Remove Programs, then re-installing?

Any information might be helpful, like a copy of the log, or a screenshot.

Hey Russ I’m assuming I can only have one agent per computer or does tcmd call the corrrect agent based on the voice from google home recognition

[Russ]

@cc, I think I've seen this before. I think your Antivirus software is blocking it from installing. Can you try disabling that during the install? Also can you tell me what type of AV software you have?

Here's a case just like yours:
https://github.com/Squirrel/Squirrel.Windows/issues/698

[Russ]

@mike-cornelison, that's correct - just one agent per computer.

Hey Russ I was never able to figure out what was keeping the agent from installing. I was using Avast. I killed most of the services that might have caused it. I ended up dumping the OS and moving to win 10 from 7 just to get current. What I am really working on is getting my wife set up to control my x10 devices by voice. It's the problem of two accounts as you have discussed before. My answer was to just set up another computer and try Cortana. I have created a seprate TCMD for her and both are working but just not Cortana doesn't communicate with her Agent. The TCMD's work in Agent and on Web triggers so I'm not sure where to look from here.

[Russ]

@mike-cornelison, I tried saying floor lamp to Cortana and she only heard floor. I'm looking into that, and possibly another bug. I'll get back to you soon.

@russ
I edited out the "lamp" to use only "Floor" and i did get the audio response from Cortana that was correct but the actual command did not run. I triggered it from TCMD website and it ran.??? Don't know if that helps.

[Russ]

@mike-cornelison, I finally figured it out. Please try "floor lamp" with Cortana again. I think it will work now.
