Sonoff ZBMINI spamming logs?

I just noticed that the ZBMini is generating a log entry every 4 minutes. I have 3 of them, so it gets to be quite "spammy"! I can't remember if this is the way it has always been or is recent. Anyone else seeing this? Is there a way to stop this?

Firmware: 2.4.2.119
Driver; Generic Zigbee Switch (auto selected on join)

Don't supposed there is a Text Description logging option that you could turn off?

There is, but to me that's a nuke option! Was hoping that there may be another driver that works with it that is not as "chatty"

Devices do not usually just post their current status like that without a reason. Something is trying to turn it off every four minutes.

You can see what is trying to turn it off in the event tab of the device.

Nope. I have a bunch of those. They all do that every 4 minutes.

@rakeshg Turn off log info.

Interesting. So what does the Events tab say it is produced by? Just the device itself?

Edit: It would have to be the driver causing it, if it is from the device. Have you tried this driver instead>

No event. Just log info entry.

It is not a problem for me. I don't realy care about them spamming. I could just turn off logging.

Edit: I have 15 of those... that amount to 5400 log entries a day... Maybe I should turn off logging.

The event logs are pretty clean and show the actual activations. The logs, on the other hand, are completely different. I believe the driver generates the log entries, but don't know for sure.

Yeah - that's the same for me.

I have not - will check this out.

Is this the same one mentioned by @kkossev? Will check out this one as well if it is different.

@kkossev @ymerj @user2574 - for now, I have turned off the logging for the 3 ZBMinis that I have since I will be out of town for the next few days. I will try out the different driver (s) when I come back. Thanks again for your help.
