Troubleshooting

If Alexa reports your password is wrong, check the following points.

  • Ensure you are using your Heatmiser account login details.
  • You must be the master owner of your neoHub. You cannot link to Alexa if you are a shared user.

The most common reason for login issues is an incorrect password being used.

In a case like this, we would suggest resetting your Heatmiser Password so that you are sure you are using the correct password.

In order for Alexa to recognise your neoStat/SmartStat, your thermostat needs to have one of the following room names.

Please rename the thermostat in the Heatmiser app and then re-try the skill command.
