Hello everyone. Thanks for tuning in again. Continuing on our series with the
Onyx by Orion devices. I want to show you how you can replace a good chunk of the
functionality that you have with either a Google Home or an Amazon Echo, any of
those devices. You can actually replace a lot of the home automation capabilities
with just the Onyx and your phone so let me show you how to go about that right
after this. So this video assumes that you already have your Onyx paired with
your iPhone or your Android device and then you already have an account with
Onyx by Orion within IFTTT, and this is where everything starts. You
can actually search for Onyx or Orion, and you will find the Orion service. Now
what you're going to do is connect that service to your account that you've
already used to sign up when you were setting up your onyx device so you'll
need to authorize and then from there you can see all of these applets that
are already here you can see integration with Wemo you can see integration with
Gmail Samsung smartthings and down at the bottom just on the base page we
actually have access to Alexa as well you can see the trigger so you can
choose which group who says what and what word or phase and then you can also
choose the action so again which group hears it who specifically in that group
hears it and what does your onyx say so basically you're going to either be able
to trigger through certain words and you're also going to be able to cause
certain messages to come out of your onyx now I'm just gonna go ahead and
create an applet I'm gonna show you how this works I'm going to search for a
Ryan and then you can see the one trigger where it says listen for a word
or phrase so all you're going to do is speak into your onyx device and you can
choose which group who says it if you had multiple people in there you could
see that as well and then which word or phrase you want
onyx to listen for and by proxy the if this than that service so I chose
basement lamp on and now I'm choosing my hue light as the action so I could
choose to just toggle the lights but in this case because I said that my word
was basement lamp on I'm actually going to say turn on that light and you can
see it in my pick list here basement lamp so I create that action and now
what I have is if anyone in the family group says basement lamp on it will turn
on the basement lamp now I'm gonna show you another one this is where things can
get really deep so again we're gonna start with the trigger for Orion and
we're gonna choose a word or phrase here of trigger workflow and the reason I'm
choosing that is if you've ever heard of stringify that service is capable of
running very complex workflows and it has a whole suite of other actions and
services that it is integrated with so you can see I already have a flow in the
system called turn off pump and so if anyone said trigger workflow you could
turn off that pump now obviously that's very useful for business but even in a
home if you wanted to you could do something like I had done where you
could just trigger turning off a sump pump now let me show you something a
little bit different if you're looking to purchase something and this extends
beyond the capability of a Google home or an echo so I can request from ebay if
I have the search term Google home and I can set a maximum price so I'm gonna set
that for $100 keep in mind that's USD on the if this than that service and then
I'm gonna choose Orion now it's going to send a voice message and I'm just gonna
choose just to me and you can see the ingredients that are in here already I'm
gonna add in some text just to make it sound right so I'm gonna say a Google
home is available on eBay named the title and
add a price of and I'm just gonna remove the URL I don't need that and I'm gonna
hit create action so whenever a new Google home or a new item related to
Google home comes onto eBay my Onix will actually read it out for me and the if
this then that service will store it within it so let me show you what that
looks here's what you get in if this than that along with the notification
that you get on your phone so you can go straight to the eBay item and if you
wanted you could place a bid or buy it now here's what it sounds like when you
get the notification through onyx now just because the if this than that
service has hundreds of applications or devices that it can connect to this
gives you the opportunity to connect your Onix and trigger all kinds of
functionality through your onyx and then have your onyx repeat back or send you a
message based on what's happened in your home so I think that's good for today I
think it's pretty clear how you could use these devices to actually replace a
lot of the functionality around a Google home or an echo obviously it's not going
to do everything but you get awfully close when you consider all of the extra
functionality you're getting and the capability of communicating with people
instantaneously with these onyx devices thanks everyone for watching we'll see
you next time
you
