Ecobee Suite Mode/Routine/Switch/Program Helper #27

Can you add a condition for thermostat auto/cool/heat mode to this helper. I would like my virtual switch I created to only trigger my time based mode change during heat or cool as I change my home schedule times. i.e. in winter I want it to turn on at 645am, but summer once school is out it would be different. Would be better to not have to turnoff all of them each season. Adding that extra condition of the thermostat mode will allow me to control it better

It is easier for me if you could report issues via the appropriate platform: either the SmartThings Community (https://community.smartthings.com/t/release-universal-ecobee-suite-version-1-7/163929 ), or Hubitat Community (https://community.hubitat.com/t/release-universal-ecobee-suite-version-1-7/15813). I pretty much just use GitHub as the repository...

When you do, please be more specific about what you are trying to accomplish.

The ES M/R/S?P Helper is designed to change the thermostat program (Home, Away, Sleep, etc.) based off of another event - like when your Location Mode changes, or when a specific switch is turned on/off. You can also have multiple instances of the Helper, each tied to different conditions - in this way, you should have everything you need to implement different schedules for different seasons or for weekdays vs. weekends (each with different thermostat programs, if you choose).
