Disable or delete 1 device from Google Home (syncen via Homey)

Hi,

I have a Homey Pro23, and it sync with Google Home/Assistant (+ 2 Google mini’s in the house). I have 5 shutters, and in the past I could say: Hey Google open all the shutters. Then 5 shutters opened. Worked fine.

Since this summer I have 3 new solar blinds (Brel). I have these now in Homey also. Work fine, but these screens are now also in Google Home.

When I say, Hey Google open all shutters (rolluiken), now all 5 shutters open but also the 3 screens open. I dont want the screens to open, only the shutters.

How can I fix this issue ? :open_mouth:

Create an automation which takes the voice command “open all shutters” as starter
(This should replace the automatic selection by Ghome of all shutters / blinds);
as action, select the shutters and select the ‘open’ command.

Alternative (less work but not tested):
Make sure, on Homey, to change the device ‘type’ for the solar blinds to Blinds, and check if the shutters device ‘type’ is set to Shutter-blinds:

In theory, Ghome should not consider the blinds to be shutters anymore. This stuff you can fiddle with.

Thanks!

In Homey I cannot change the type of the screens. The Shutters are already at shutter. So I think I have to try your option 1.

If this does not work, can I create a second HOME and set the screens to the second home? Or does this effect also Homey…I dont want to mess things up. :slight_smile:

How you organise Homey based devices in Ghome doesn’t affect Homey.
AFAIK when you don’t add (new) devices to a home & room in Ghome, they’re excluded from voice commands like “close all shutters”, turn all lights on".
If that’s a wrong assumption, you’d move them to an other home to “exclude” them.

Because my Pro can’t disasble individual devices from sync, I use a second home to move devices to, which shouldn’t be in Ghome
