Ok, so I have done some testing and it looks like I am just back to where I have been since yesterday. It looks like there is a communication error between smartthings and sharptools. I have taken two screenshots to show what I mean. The bottom left window is ActionTiles, it shows the correct mode that smartthings is in. As you can see by the log in the second screenshot, sharptools is not executing a rule because it thinks smartthings is in a different mode. The sharptthings dashboard however sees the correct location mode.
**Next post has the second screenshot
thoughts?
