Smart Home Monitor - Serious Bug

[WB70]

I have an automation routine calle AWAY that turns off all the lights, adjusts the thermostat and locks the doors , closes the garage door and puts the house on AWAY mode and turns on monitoring with SHM.

the problem is the order that this is activated.

With webCoRE you could control the execution order of turning off all the lights, then locking the doors, and running all the tasks you need to perform before actually arming the SHM to Armed (Away) and setting the Mode to Away as well. They would prevent whatever the order of the Routine is performing everything in.

[Deprecated as of Apr 8, 2018] Smart Home Monitor Exit and Entry Delays (Version1)

Version 2.0 now available Please try out the easier to use Version2. Purpose This smartapp simulates the Entry and Exit Delay parameters currently missing in Smart Home Monitor (SHM), allowing for some time on entry to disarm the system, and time to exit the facility without triggering an alarm. Entry and Exit delays operate on contact sensors selected in Delay Profiles. SHM is generally fully armed while using this smartapp, tripping a ‘non-delayed sensor’ immediately triggers a SHM intrusion alert. This means a motion sensor that ‘sees’ a door with a delayed sensor, or ‘sees’ a arming/disarming device such as a keypad, may trigger an intrusion alert while you are arming/disarming the system. Motion sensor issues may be mitigated by specifying the motion sensors in the Delay Profile. A…
