I am trying to add my Matter enable switch to Alexa and it says I need to put the switch in pairing mode. How is this done?

@seansykes

When the device's LED indicator flashes red and green, it is ready for setup. If the device is not in this state, you can perform a reset: press and hold for about 10 seconds to factory reset the smart switch. Note: A reset is not required if the smart switch needs to be added to the second Matter platform.
