How to integrate Bitron KeyFob with zigbee HA?

hi folks,
I have a Bitron KeyFob with 4 buttons which I’m trying to integrate into my HA system. I’ve interviewed and registered the device with the ConBee II zigbee integration, and I can see key presses via the logbook. I have no idea how to use this information to create an automation though, as if I try to use an event to create an automation, then I don’t get the option to connect the button presses, and the same with a state. All I seem to be able to do is to connect the battery level and identify buttons. I’m sure I’m doing something dumb here, and missing the correct, possibly obvious, way to do this.

For instance, If I cut-n-paste “Bitron Home 902010/23 On” into the Developer-Tools/Events/EventType field and fire it, I see nothing anywhere. Yet this data is what I see in the logbook when I press the relevant button. Below are the four key press entries that I see in the logbook which I am trying to connect to an automation:

Bitron Home 902010/23 Step With On Off event was fired with parameters: {
    'step_mode': <StepMode.Down: 1>, 'step_size': 10, 'transition_time': 65535
}

Bitron Home 902010/23 Off event was fired

Bitron Home 902010/23 On event was fired

Bitron Home 902010/23 Step With On Off event was fired with parameters: {
    'step_mode': <StepMode.Up: 0>, 'step_size': 10, 'transition_time': 65535
}

Thank you for your time and I appreciate any helpful pointers you may be able to provide to get me on the right track.

R.
