In this video, I will show you how to create a virtual switch to control your SmartThings Home Monitor based on your SmartThings home mode. This will allow you to use the SmartThings Home Monitor in 3rd party applications like SharpTools, Alexa, and Webcore.

By using this method you will not only always have your SmartThings Home Monitor set to the correct state automatically but you will also simplify the number of virtual switches required making it work better than the 3 virtual switches shown in a previous video.

I will be showing you the 6 automations required in the SmartThings App and also all of the security automations I have set up in SharpTools and how it will work on a SharpTools Dashboard.
