Why was an Action Group executed?

Twice in recent months my "All lights on" action group has been executed, somewhere in the vicinity of my wife using Indigo Touch to start a different action group. She swears she's not touching that button. Is there any way to get diagnostics on how the action group was started? By a remote command from Indigo Touch (or Domotics Pad), as the result of some other trigger or delayed action, etc?

(I particularly want to fix this because "All lights on" is also part of my smoke-alarm trigger, so when I see lights in the room I'm in jump suddenly to 100%, I am now conditioned to think the alarm is about to go off.)

Re: Why was an Action Group executed?

I'm not sure how to answer your question but there are others reporting actions and schedules firing that would benefit from similar troubleshooting steps.

Re: Why was an Action Group executed?

As you can see, any client that connects will show in the Event Log - and the action group was explicitly executed from something. Based on the log, it could have been either Indigo Touch or DomoPad (or, of course, from the Mac client UI). Any other way would have likely resulted in other log entries before the action group execution.
