Screen will not shut off
-
Hello everyone and team,
I am having a small issue where the screen barely shuts off even sometimes for a whole day, I am using the module EXT-PIR and the EXT-Screen, it used to work before and has several updates, I am now seeing this issue. One thing I’ve noticed when running npm run start with debug turn on for PIR is
[12.03.2024 20:07.47.348] [LOG] [PIR] [CORE] Sensor read value: 0
[12.03.2024 20:08.04.266] [LOG] [PIR] [CORE] Sensor read value: 1
[12.03.2024 20:08.04.267] [LOG] [PIR] [CORE] Detected presence (value: 1)
[12.03.2024 20:08.04.282] [LOG] [SCREEN] [LIB] Restart.This happens for no reason, nothing is around the sensor path to trigger a restart, already restarted and rebooted and it’s the same issue.

It really depends on pir sensor quality and it’s sensitivity setting. I tried several pir sensors and all of them produced too many false triggers.
At the end I switched to using a microwave sensor which never gives me false detection.
