MMM-PIR-Sensor tuning

[jc21]

Great stuff. People shouldn’t discount a faulty PIR either. The one I had on the shelf for ages wasn’t detecting quite right so I ordered another one and the difference in detection is huge. I’m not sure if these have a shelf life or what but yeah, that was my recent experience.

It’s equal if i have the original from @paviro or the modification.

Can anybody help me?

@ostfilinchen

1. please run npm list and find out your version number of electron
2. change into the MMM-PIR-Sensor folder cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PIR-Sensor
3. run npm rebuild --runtime=electron --target=ELECTRONVERSION --disturl=https://atom.io/download/atom-shell --abi=50 and replace ELECTRONVERSION with the version number you found in step 1

[ostfilinchen]

@yawns. Is it possible that my Version is 1.4.13?

[yawns]

Yes, that is possible. When I had to run this command last time I was using 1.4.0 …
Just give it a try. Worst case is you have to delete the MMM-PIR-Sensor folder and git clone it again.

[ostfilinchen]

@yawns now i get this error

why are you running it with sudo??

[ostfilinchen]

After a few New Installations now the mm starts and the PIR works.
