Sonoff Alexa Motor Control Project Help

[Alex Reid]

Hi all,
I have a TV lift which will go up and down using a remote.

I want to add the Sonoff Mini switch so I can raise and lower the lift by commanding Alexa and google. This should be possible although I am a bit of a novice and it is unclear where this needs to be wired in

In the photos you can see my mistake, power is going into the Sonoff however it will not interact with the lift.

If anyone has advice on how to make this work I would appreciate it!

Thanks

Is it Alexa compatible?

Have you tried another load on the switch?

Does the screen lift work without the Wi-fi switch?

How are you going to control BOTH up and down from that switch. It looks like the lift control has 1 supply which is ON or OFF, and you have to press the UP and DOWN on the plate.

The Sonoff is Alexa and google home enabled. You can control lighting, I have seen people control motors for blinds and garage doors

This lift also works with an RF remote but I want to connect Sonoff directly

But the Wi-fi switch only switches ON or OFF. How do you give the UP or DOWN command?
