My Automation only fires sometimes

Configuration
1

I can’t seem to figure this out. I have a Zen 34 switch which I want to fire an automation. Something the automation fires and sometimes it does not. HA see the switch everytime, so I don’t understand why the automation will not fire.

Help please.

What does the trace show in the automation? How is your automation set up?

Hello Terry,

Please share your automation. We have no clue what you are trying to do.

My first guess is this, however, as it gets a lot of new people.

Sorry I should be provided more details up front.
I have a Zooz Zen34 rocker switch with Sceen 01 and 02. I’m trying to get the switch to turn the POE port 15 on/off. I have a unifi router and poe switch and can see the switch entity change when the automation fires.

But, it only fires sometimes.
