PIR sensor problem after restart Raspi

[JoeFranz]

@Egnos The sensor is correctly connected

[sdetweil]

@JoeFranz and does it works correctly outside mm?

there are python scripts that will show it working

[JoeFranz]

@sdetweil How can I test this?

[sdetweil]

@JoeFranz Google search is your friend

@sdetweil Ok, that tests the PIR sensor. But since the Raspi doesn’t even let the monitor go into standby, I suspect that it’s due to Raspian. Screen blanking is activated in Raspi-Config, so the monitor should switch off after 10 minutes, right? But that doesn’t work either. Or does that have nothing to do with the PIR function of MM?

[sdetweil]

@JoeFranz well, its shouldn’t go off by itself… as then u would have two things fighting for on or off…

do this, i assume you have pm2 controlling mm at boot

so, do

pm2 status

should only be one thing… defined

@JoeFranz ok, it’s not a second process getting in the way

next to test the sensor w the python script

stop mm

[JoeFranz]

@sdetweil Nothing happens in the window. :-( PIR sensor broken?

[JoeFranz]

@JoeFranz It is probably because of the current firmware 5.15
With

rpi-update b976c54917e240630c05a9b383010f1492bc61b4 

I installed version 5.10. It now works again with the standby on the HDMI connection.
