How to get Samsung motion sensor to turn on light?

you set it to not run in that mode by picking all Modes except for that one.

So, how do the different modes change? Is it automatic or do I have to manually change it on the SmartThings app? So, for example, if I do not want the light to turn on base on the motion sensor, do I manually change the mode on my phone then I can manually turn on the light switch?

You can manually change the mode or you can use an automation to change the mode.

I see. Okay, so I’ll put this here just for my own information.
