Voice Control Devices

All FireBoards work with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant, making it even easier to check your temperatures with voice commands.

Once you’ve connected your smart speaker to FireBoard (see below), you can say any of the following:

• What is my FireBoard temperature?
• How long is my session?
• What are my alerts?
• Set an alert on channel one for 203 degrees.
• Turn off my alerts.
• What is the setpoint?
• Set my smoker to 225 degrees.
• Set the setpoint to 300 degrees.
• What is the current fan speed?
• Set the fan speed to 70%.
• Turn off the fan.

Google Assistant

FireBoard works with the Google Assistant available on iPhone, Google Home, and most Android phones. All you have to say is “Okay Google, talk to FireBoard.”

If this is your first time, you’ll need to link your FireBoard account through the Google Assistant App. You can view the FireBoard listing to link or unlink your FireBoard Account here: FireBoard Google Assistant.

Try some of the phrases above to explore capabilities.

Alexa

The FireBoard works with all Amazon Alexa enabled devices. Find and enable the FireBoard Alexa Skill in the Alexa Skill Store. Sign in with your FireBoard account through the Alexa App. Once linked, you’re ready to command Alexa. Say “Alexa, ask FireBoard what is the current temperature.”

Alexa can do much more than just check the temperature; try some of the phrases mentioned above for more functionality.

With both of these voice control devices, some commands only apply if a fan is connected.
