I have my outside lights scheduled on 7:15 pm off 6:30 am. I have a push notification to let me know when it occurs. If you look at screenshot of Push on Aug 7 6:29 am lights are off and 5:45 am lights are on the 5:02 lights are off and 4:58 are on. It is very random.
Is there some setting I don't see that is causing this?
Hard to say, but first thing would be to look at logs for the rule.
If the rule is working then look at the lights and make sure there is not something else turning the lights on or off. Alexa hunches have been know to turn things on and off unexpectedly for some folks.
You can go to the device page for each light and look towards the bottom it will show you all the rules that device uses.
Are the lights also not coming on at the expected time, or is the issue only with the sending of the notification? The Logs may also help with this.
I tried looking at the logs for Aug 7 or 8th. I tried to do a filter for that day but it doesn't allow me to change the date only today. I am on past logs.
In @terminal3's post above, check the recommendations in his 2nd and 3rd paragraphs -- verify Alexa Hunches are disabled (if using Alexa), and cross-check the "In Use By" section on each devices's Device page to see what else may be issuing commands.
OK. I disabled the Alexa Skill from in use by. Let's see if that work. BTW How do I see past logs if the filter doesn't allow me to go back. The calendar pops up but only today. All the other days are grayed out.
The rule is shown in the past logs list, and that is what you want to look at. "Turn On Patio Door..... 7:15PM"
In my reply above I can't access past logs. When I put in the time frame it only allows todays date
Don’t select a time, just filter on the app or scroll to the time you want.
If you have restarted recently with the “clear logs” option, logs before then are deleted.
No I haven't. I did hit reload. I tried other devices and same thing. I give up now the Zooz Entrance, outside light and spa light do not show up.
Click “Clear Filters” when you see “null” in the selection box.
Make sure that you enable logging and Save in device preferences.
You get that “null” when you click on the “log” icon in a device or app that doesn’t have any log entries.
