Belkins/Wemo System Events

Every 5 minutes I get anywhere from 10-15 of these events:

Is this something I need to be concerned about? Because these events fill up the log it is hard to find any other type of events I may be looking for. Is there a way to restrict or filter such events?

as reliable as it was, I pulled my wemo and some other wifi devices off my HE. I didn't see anyway to stop those events. I am not on the latest firmware tho, on my C4

Well I found a way to reduce the amount via the app "Wemo Connect" but no way to eliminate them. In the long run I may end up removing Wemo as well.

Howdy cdikland,
Thanks for posting about this behavior. I have the same observation with my two plug-in switches. They each chime in every 5 minutes:

Would you please share how you reduced the messages, and by how much? Thanks!

One of the options titled "How often should WeMo devices be refreshed?" in the app Wemo Connect allows you to set this time (5 is the default). I dont use this app any more as I have removed all my Wemos from Hubitat.

Got it. Thanks!
