TX-8470 Amazon Alexa

Alexa is a cloud-based voice service developed by Amazon. When this unit is registered with an Amazon account, you can use a terminal with Amazon Alexa (an Amazon Echo, etc.) or Amazon Alexa App (available on iOS and Android™) to perform operations such as adjusting the volume of this unit or playing music using voice commands.
• You need an Amazon account to use Amazon Alexa. For more information, see the Amazon website.
• The services may not be available, depending on your area of residence.

1. Register with the Amazon account on Onkyo Controller. This cannot be set
with operations on this unit.
Refer to "1. Install the app" ( →p33) for information about the app.
2. Start Onkyo Controller and tap the unit when displayed.
3. Tap "NET" or "NETWORK" on the upper part of the Onkyo Controller’s

                                             Available services may differ depending on your area.

5. Tap "Start Setup", and in the Setup screen, select the language and register the device name. Select the same language as the one you have selected for your other terminals with Amazon Alexa (an Amazon Echo, etc.). For the device name, use one that can easily be called up vocally.

8. When registration is finished, the screen returns to the one for Onkyo Controller. Follow the on screen instructions and talk to the terminal with Amazon Alexa (an Amazon Echo, etc.), and confirm that you can use voice commands.
                              For example: "Alexa, raise the volume of the speaker (*2)""Alexa, play music from the                                                         speaker (*2)"
                                                   (*2) Use the device name you registered in Step 5 when talking.

You can use voice commands to adjust the volume on this unit, start and stop music, and skip music up or down.

                                "Alexa, play music from the speaker (*3)"
(*3) Use the device name you registered in Step 5 of "Registering this unit with an Amazon account" when talking.
