HC3 why a scene is triggered every time the turn-on command is sent?

I've set up an association (group 2 - alarm sustaining 5s) between the motion sensor and the RGBW controller.

LUA scene:

Why is the scene run every time that motion is detected? Even if the RGBW Controller is turned on.
I want the scene to start only when the RGBW Controller changes the status from turned off to turned on. I would expect that from this trigger.

Why is the scene run every time that motion is detected? Even if the RGBW Controller is turned on. - because there is a trigger:

it mean that scene will start everytime when the status of RGBW device will change (state from off to on is the change, state from on to off is the change too).

You have to use a condition in the scene, to check the device status, for example:

local RGBW_status = hub.getValue(338, "value")

if RGBW_status == 0 then       --when is off, then do...

....

else          -- when is on, then do...

....

end

It is triggered twice in a row:

[10.11.2023] [14:58:34] [DEBUG] [HALLWAY LIGHT]: Set color after 6:45 LUX = 72.0

[10.11.2023] [14:59:25] [DEBUG] [HALLWAY LIGHT]: Set color after 6:45 LUX = 4.0

[10.11.2023] [15:37:19] [DEBUG] [HALLWAY LIGHT]: Set color after 6:45 LUX = 82.0

[10.11.2023] [15:39:42] [DEBUG] [HALLWAY LIGHT]: Set color after 6:45 LUX = 3.0
I've assumed that the association changes the status of the device every 5 seconds, because of the alarm-sustaining parameter. But that may be a false lead, why is it triggered twice?
