Automation location and schedule trigger empty motion events

[Jbg1809]

Hello

i have routines based on location and schedule. When the system goes into arm away mode thanks to the routines it sends me a motion event for each of the cameras (VMC2050) at the specific moment they go into arm away mode. These events are useless and a bit polluting my feed for nothing … otherwise the rest is working fine 

any idea ? 

thanks for the help

Are you still seeing this same behavior?

[Jbg1809]

Yes, it’s very annoying

Thanks

it’s setup properly , the features are working fine and do what I want… except the bug that when geofencing enable the arm away mode , then right away, each camera record a 10sec motion. That’s creating one false positive per camera every time the Geo fencing enable the arm away mode…

You can see on the screenshot

Although I suspect this is not the cause, just in case ...

Make sure the automations don't include an action for the cameras to record.  Record actions are tagged as "motion"  - no idea why.

[Jbg1809]

No there is no action to record in the automation

@Jbg1809 can you please do a test automation. To do a test automation for the Leave Automation. Routines->Automations->Leave->Test Automation - this will change the mode to Arm Away. Let me know if it triggers a recording.
