help interpretting m1 log events

The other day, I went out at 10:44 an armed the system. Learned about bypasses and what happens when you open a door after you set the alarm, but before the countdown has expired. I set the alarm, went out the garage and opened the back garage door to let the cat in, but the cat, being a cat, just sat there. So I left the door opened got in my car and just as I was starting to leave, BEEEEP.

No problem, I reset the alarm bypassing the garage back door.

I came home after lunch and found a burlar alarm had been triggered. I think the dog set off the BaseHall Motion detector (I since changed it to non-alarm). But what I don't understand is the Garage Int Door (zone 41) messages. This door can't be opened unless the garage door is opened. And the garage doors where closed. And the back garage door that was left opened, goes onto a deck with no stairs off it.

Anyway, here's the log:

Then you shouldn't be getting zones to falsely trip unless the firmware really hasn't been fixed. You and I are not the first ones to report this.
