Control your Comelit devices with Amazon Alexa

1. Pair your Mini Wi-Fi to the user you are registered with in the Comelit App

After updating the Comelit App, the first time you log in you will be shown a pop-up that warns you that Mini Wi-Fi is now compatible with Amazon Alexa, click the ACTIVATE button twice.

On the “Manage Devices” page select Door Entry Monitor and verify that the “Voice Assistant” function has been activated.

I closed the pop up before pressing the ACTIVATE button. What can I do? No problem, you will be able to activate the function by entering the Menu –> Manage Devices –> Door Entry Monitor –> Voice Assistant. For activation, refer to point 1.

2. Download the Amazon Alexa app* and enable the Comelit Home skill

Enter the Amazon Alexa app and select “Skills and games” from the menu

*For information regarding the Amazon Alexa app, we recommend you consult the dedicated manual.

Select the magnifying glass and search for the Comelit Home skill

Select the Comelit Home skill and enable it for use; to enable it you will need to enter the credentials you use to access the Comelit App.

Once you have entered the credentials, a message confirming connection will appear. On closing this screen a new one will open; click “DISCOVER DEVICES”. When the search is complete, a screen indicating “No device found” will appear; this is normal. When you close the screen the new devices will be visible in the “All devices” list.
