Not really plugin related.... but I'm figuring that everyone in this topic area has an envisalink device and some of those folks have an Alexa device...

While looking for something quasi-related, I stumbled across this new skill. It works if you have an Envisalink or Envisalink SOLO by connecting through your EyezOn account http://www.eyezon.com. With it you can check the status of sensor, Arm or (if you enable it) disarm with a programmed verbal pin code.

What it won't do:
It's currently not recognized as a security system for Alexa On Guard. (To enable On Guard and arm your system you would have to give two separate commands)
Sensors are recognized as sensors but not for triggering a routine <- The reason I was looking around.

This also works with Envisalik on a Honneywell but you must enable QuickArming on your system in order to ARM via Alexa.

You can set up a "Routine" in the Alexa app to arm your security system and start Alexa On Guard using a single voice command. Disarming still requires 2 separate voice commands as it appears the only DSC command options shown by Alexa under "Routines" are "Arm Stay" and "Arm Away". There seems to be no option for "Disarm". This even though you can disarm your alarm system with your Alexa devices by using the EyezOn skill. In which case you will be prompted for your security code by Alexa.
