RE: xAP Floorplan



Yes this might explain it - it does take about 20 minutes for it to
start
misbehaving.  Sounds like a good theory that previous "TIMER
OFF's" are not
removed from the queue when a new one is generated.

I have not tried a similar setup but I was just wondering about how this
is implemented in FP. Is it possible that the first trigger of the PIR
already places in the queue a corresponding OFF command for 20 minutes
later and although later triggers happen the previous 'OFF's are already
queued and hence happen still ?  From my understanding of what your
saying below you are right in that there shouldn't be a xAPBSC.cmd /
state=OFF being seen although you would see xAPBSC.events or
xAPBSC.infos with state=OFF as this is a status message from the lamp as
it turns off.
