Hey there.. Randy checking in. I have a scenario to run by you & get your thoughts, as I recall reading (at least previously) that you are not able to test with multiple blinds.. I have 10 blinds total, but I do have a odd wrinkle that happens, usually with some variance on how many will respond or not; but usually when I tell Siri (using HomePods) to open "All Blinds", the process will start, many blinds will open, but usually several will not respond, & eventually I am often stuck with a spinning blue ring on the MySmartBlinds hub, & it will eventually time out, but if I am testing I have to power cycle the hub as the blue ring circling / timeout takes a few.
If I issue commands requesting fewer blinds, like Siri Open the blinds in the living room, where there are only 2, it will usually succeed. I'm wondering about a queue stacking / timing issue here, since they do work if you one off them.
Also & possibly related, sometimes (again with using a HomePod to issue the verbal commands), I might say "open the blinds in the office", they will both open successfully, but Siri will respond with & I am paraphrasing "On of your devices did not respond), or some very close wording to that effect.
That can happen on occasion with just opening a single blind, & in that scenario they generally will still open successfully as well, but Siri will just think they didn't, so monthly she just complains falsely & the blinds still open. So both of those scenarios make me wonder about a possible timing issue when multiple blinds are involved. As watching the blinds & the blue ring, it almost seems like it chokes on too many request all at once.
Any thoughts / are you still developing / testing against a single blind unit?
FYI... RM
