@did yes times change

but the remote control module provides a config option for those commands

if you look at one of the PIR modules node_helper.js you should see different choices

try those commands via ssh so you can turn it back on

Hello
Merci pour ta réponse rapide .
J’ai intégré les lignes dans mon config.js mais Magic Mirror retourne une erreur dans le fichier . Je ne comprend pas ou est l’erreur ?
Voici ce que j’ai inseré :

Hello
Thank you for your quick response.
I integrated the lines in my config.js but Magic Mirror returns an error in the file. I don’t understand where the error is ?
Here is what I inserted:

		{
			module: 'MMM-Remote-Control'
			// uncomment the following line to show the URL of the remote control on the mirror
			// , position: 'bottom_left'
			// you can hide this module afterwards from the remote control itself
			customCommand: {
//   			       shutdownCommand: 'shell command to shutdown your pc',
//  			       rebootCommand: 'shell command to reboot your pc',
       			       monitorOnCommand: 'DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off',
       			       monitorOffCommand: 'DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output HDMI-1 --auto',
//        monitorStatusCommand: 'shell command to return status of monitor, must return either "HDMI" or "true" if screen is on; or "TV is Off" or "false" if it is off to be recognized'
    }
		},

Merci pour votre aide

@did can you show the error?

Hello
Non je ne comprend pas pourquoi , le construction des lignes sembles convenables .
La première commande pour moi n’est pas prise en compte car elle apparaît en noir alors que la seconde est bien en rouge .
Hello
No I don’t understand why, the construction of the lines seems suitable.
The first command for me is not taken into account because it appears in black while the second is in red.

Malheureusement je n’y connais rien en langage de programmation Java ou autre .
Pour le moment j’ai modifié le fichier node_helper.js dans répertoire MMM-Remote-Controle pour envoyer les bonnes commandes .
Pour ceux qui cherche la commande pour couper l’affichage de l’écran :
Unfortunately I don’t know anything about Java programming language or anything else.
For the moment I modified the node_helper.js file in the MMM-Remote-Controle directory to send the correct commands.
For those looking for the command to turn off the screen display:
DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off
DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output HDMI-1 --auto
Merci pour votre aide

@did said in screen Blanking not working on Raspberry Pi 2:

{
module: ‘MMM-Remote-Control’
// uncomment the following line to show the URL of the remote control on the mirror
// , position: ‘bottom_left’
// you can hide this module afterwards from the remote control itself
customCommand: {
// shutdownCommand: ‘shell command to shutdown your pc’,
// rebootCommand: ‘shell command to reboot your pc’,
monitorOnCommand: ‘DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off’,
monitorOffCommand: ‘DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output HDMI-1 --auto’,

ok, I see it… two things…

you have the wrong structure for a module definition
the correct way is

{
    // all these tell magic mirror about the module 
     module:'module_name',
     position:
     classes:
     disabled:
     header:

     config: {
        // all these are module specific parameters
       // magicmirror doesn't use any of them, only the module
     }
}

so what you have is

{    
      module: 'MMM-Remote-Control'
     customCommand: {
     }
}

but customCommand: is a module parameter, not a magicmirror parameter

you are missing a trailing comma

 module: 'MMM-Remote-Control'     //<---- here
     customCommand: {

Javascript needs to be told that this line is done, and more info follows

you’ll note the ‘trick’ in the module documentation

> 			// uncomment the following line to show the URL of the remote control on the mirror
> 			// , position: 'bottom_left'```   //<---- it STARTS with a comma, which ends the prior line and then starts a new one..

so, combined the module entry SHOULD look like this

{    
      module: 'MMM-Remote-Control',  // added trailing comma
      config:{    // the config block wrapping parameters to the module
           customCommand: {
//   			       shutdownCommand: 'shell command to shutdown your pc',
//  			       rebootCommand: 'shell command to reboot your pc',
       			       monitorOnCommand: 'DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off',
       			       monitorOffCommand: 'DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output HDMI-1 --auto',
//                             monitorStatusCommand: 'shell command to return status of monitor, must return either "HDMI" or "true" if screen is on; or "TV is Off" or "false" if it is off to be recognized'
           }
      }
}
