Camera mysteriously linked to motion sensor

Post by PetervandePol »

I have made a blockly script that triggers a camera to send a snapshot when the front door is opened. The front door has a magnetic Xiaomi sensor. This works: I get an email "front door open" with a picture.

Then I walked into my kitchen where I have a Xiaomi motion sensor and I got another email with picture from the frontdoor camera saying that the motion sensor in the Kitchen was On.

This is unexpected; I never included this motion sensor in my script. On the Domoticz dashboard the motion sensor also has a camera icon in the top right corner. Strange: I would have understood if the door sensor had this icon.

Since this is not what I wanted I deleted the motion sensor in the kitchen, resetted the thing, added it again and... There is the camera icon again. :shock:

Can anyone enlight me on what is going on here?

When you edit your camera, what do you see for "Active Devices/Scenes" for this camera?

Nothing, I never thought about looking there, I am pretty new to Domoticz. But: strangely enough the camera icon has just disappeared from the motion sensor, and I did not change anything. Looks like domoticz "cleaned itself up"?
