Create a Virtual Momentary Switch to Control SmartThings Scenes in a SharpTools Dashboard
In this episode I will take you through all the steps to create a Virtual Momentary Switch (VMS) as a Device Handler, add the VMS to your SmartThings device list, verify that the VMS is ported over to your SmartThings App, connect the VMS to a routine so the you can execute (run) SmartThings Scenes after they are triggered by pressing the VMS, and I will then provide directions for transferring the switch to the SharpTools app so the you can create action tiles within the SharpTools Dashboard which can be used to start your SmartThings scenes.
