Delay SHM from using Motion Detectors when Armed(Away)

SmartApps & Automations

After posting the “One Possible Method” solution, I thought this may be useful in my SHM Delay app, so I created a demo app SHM Delay TrueExit to try it out, and it works for me. If you try it, please let me know if it works for you.

Quick Setup Guide

  1. In the Phone App Automation->Routines: create a new dummy routine with no mode, no alarmstate, no actions, name it: Goodbye-Delay (or whatever you want)
  2. In IDE SmartApps: Install routine SHM Delay TrueExit from repo or code
  3. Set Routine to monitor for execution to: Goodbye-Delay (or your name)
  4. Set number of seconds to delay: 10-120
  5. Set “Then execute this routine” to: Goodbye! or whatever routine you use
  6. In whatever you are using to currently execute “Goodbye” change it to “Goodbye-Delay”
  7. Test your system

Installation

There is one module associated with the app:

  1. SHM Delay TrueExit.
    To install via the repository, add the following to the IDE Settings (or copy code below)
    Owner: arnbme (in upper case that is ARNBME)
    Name: SmartThingsPublic
    Branch: Master
  2. Click ‘Save’, then in ‘My Smart Apps’ click 'Update from repo",
  3. select the ARNBNE SmartThingsPublic repository then install and publish SHM Delay TrueExit
  4. in the Phone App tap on add a Smartapp, install SHM Delay TrueExit and set paramaters
