2 years ago while I'm the maintainer, I don't actually have a system ... that said, the system polls state before and after operation in addition to cases where the panel emits its own state. The broadcast of state seems to vary wildly amongst systems (some report state frequently, some only do on-change, and I've noted some strange behavior in multi-panel systems. My guess is that it checked once before, once after and then the system itself sent an update. You could probably extend it to make the logging facility 'debounce' repeated messages or only log broadcast state messages.

The plugin is working for both alarm setting and notifications; however, I'm getting excessive logging in Homebridge. Following are extracts from the Homebridge log and the Alarm Decoder log. Note there is no specific Alarm Decoder entry for 21:20 but Homebridge received three duplicate entries for 21:20. I have the two systems' clocks sync'd so the timestamps are accurate. Can anyone provide insight into this behavior from the plug-in?
