Arming schedules
My alarm.com app informed me today that I can set arming schedules. I am unable to do so as the option in telus does not exist. Sat on the phone and tech support told me that the option is not there....
I would like to set up a security schedule also so I don't have to arm, and disarm my home all the time, and avoid tripping the alarm if I forget to disarm it before I enter.

To set up an arming schedule you can use the Smart Arming feature through the web portal.
1. Log in and on the Security System card, select the 'Smart Arming' icon.
2. Select 'Create' which is next to 'Wake Up'.
3. Use the dropdown menus to select the specific time to disarm the panel.
4. If you have motion sensors the option to Disarm with activity is detected between specific times for selected sensors included in the rule will also be available. Use the Time Frames dropdown menus to select the start and end times for this to be active. Note: this feature only occurs when your system is in Armed Stay.
Important: Outdoor sensors shouldn't be selected to prevent outside activity from disarming your system.
5. Verify that the rule is configured correctly and select 'Save'.
6. Select 'Create' which is next to 'Goodnight'.
7. Use the dropdown menus to select the specific time to arm the panel.
8. If you have motion sensors the option to Arm stay between specific times when no activity has been detected for a specified duration for selected sensors included in the rule will also be available. Use the Time Frames dropdown menus to select the start and end times for this to be active and the duration for inactivity.
Note: This rule can arm the panel multiple times during the selected time period.
9. Verify that the rule is configured correctly and select 'Save'.
To pause either the Wake Up or Goodnight Smart Arming rule, you can set the toggle button on the right to off.
