Motion sensor events show in "Logs" but not in "Events"

I found that some motion events didn't trigger the apps, after digging into it, I found that the events were logged but not saved as an "event" and thus not triggering any actions. There are 17 log entries, while only 2 event entries.

Below are the logs between 12am and 7:30am:

dev:865 2023-09-11 07:30:04.564 AMinfoHallway Motion Sensor is inactive

dev:865 2023-09-11 02:33:53.949 AMinfoHallway Motion Sensor temperature is 76.25°F
dev:865 2023-09-11 02:33:51.363 AMinfoHallway Motion Sensor temperature is 76.25°F

And below are all the events between the same time window from the "Events" tab:

battery	100	%	Hallway Motion Sensor battery is 100%	DEVICE		Hallway Motion Sensor	Maker API - Homebridge (eventHandler) 2023-09-11 07:23:35.696 AM CDT
temperature	76.25	°F	Hallway Motion Sensor temperature is 76.25°F	DEVICE		Hallway Motion Sensor	Maker API - Homebridge (eventHandler) 2023-09-11 02:33:51.370 AM CDT

Which driver and what sensor are you using?

3

The duplicate innactive woukd not trigger. It only triggers shen there is a state change.

4

I'm using the built-in Generic Zigbee Motion Sensor driver. Platform version 2.3.5.152

5

This explains the temperature event, but not the active/inactive events.

6

Yes it does there are only 4 state changes active to inactive.

7

Not sure I understand at all. e.g. for these 2 log entries:

dev:865 2023-09-11 04:58:51.644 AMinfoHallway Motion Sensor is inactive
dev:865 2023-09-11 04:58:05.278 AMinfoHallway Motion Sensor is active

At 04:58:51.644 its state got changed from active to inactive. Such state change is expected to show up in the "Events" tab, however, there are NONE.

Post the events tab

9

Did the events in question age out due to limited number of event history slots?

I see. I posted the events in the same time window in my original post above.

11

It doesn't exceed the limit. I can see older inactive/active events yesterday
