Everyone is stating this? Could you provide a link to the forum post for that because I couldn’t find one. This is the closest I’ve come and it uses alarm.com , IFTTT and your email to get it to work. Not very secure IMHO.
install 2 virtual switches in ST IDE (i called them Virtual - Arm & Virtual - Stay)
In Alarm.com , add option to send email when system is armed / away / disarmed to a gmail account
In IFTTT, enable IFTTT to control these 2 switches
I used the following routines in IFTTT to turn on/off these virtual switches
i. If new email in inbox from search for subject:Panel was Armed Stay, then Switch on Virtual - Armed Stay
ii. If new email in inbox from search for subject: Panel was Disarmed, then switch off Virtual - Armed Stay
iii. If new email in inbox from search for subject: Panel was Disarmed, then switch off Virtual - Armed Away
iv. ii. If new email in inbox from search for subject: Panel was Disarmed, then switch off Virtual - Armed Away
Have CORE monitor the status of these…
