Item OFFLINE triggers "System started"

I am using OH 2.5.9. When a thermostat goes OFFLINE /ONLINE (because of communication issues - the thermostat is in a remote corner of the house) it triggers the “System started” rule.

I can see that

2020-10-31 10:44:54.034 [me.event.ThingUpdatedEvent] - Thing ‘homematic:HG-BC-RT-TRX-CyN:bcc6574b:OEQ0940641’ has been updated.

should trigger “System started”, as thing is updated. But is there a way to rule this out?

Any suggestion is very welcome!

The log tells us what’s happening, but we have no context to know why it’s happening. You need to post your items and rules so that we know what we’re looking at. :wink:

Also, please use code fences (</>) when pasting code.

That one is not about online/offline status, it is about the Thing properties. You might see this sort of uhh thing when the configured Thing does not match the discovered Thing e.g. a Thing defined from before is still in use with a later binding version that introduced some change.

This is the event triggers the chain of reinitializing.
