What are Relay Assistant Commands

Objective

  1. To gain a better understanding of Relay Assistant Commands.

Environment / Applies To

  1. Relay+ Device
  2. RelayX Device

Answer

There are several different commands available for the Relay devices. These commands can be accessed by pressing and holding down the assistant/channel button as seen below

While holding down this button, state one of the commands below and the Relay will provide information or activate a certain feature.
  1. Weather - This command will give local weather conditions 
  2. Time - This command will give local time 
  3. Battery - Provides the battery level of the Relay
  4. Call - Stating "Call [device name]" will cause the Relay to open a call to the device named.* This will create a temporary private channel between the two users, where they can use the Talk button to communicate. Calls will end after 10 seconds of inactivity from either user, and both will return to their previous channel. 
  5. Translate - Stating "Translate [language}" will allow the user to translate to and from the selected language*
  6. [Name of a Group] - If a user states the name of a group while holding down the assistant button, the Relay will switch to that channel
  7. Summon - This command will switch every member into the Main channel regardless of what they were on before*
Note: The "Weather" and "Time" commands do require location services to be enabled

* These features are only available for Relay Essentials, Pro, and Enterprise level service plans.
