MMM-Pir toggling

[ttt126]

Thanks for your answer. I don’t want to troll anything here.
On Github I can make a pull request under mmm-pir. I think that’s not the point. I can’t find a new issue there.
So here are my questions.

@ttt126 troll wasn’t indended for you. he is a busy guy. PIR is busted all over the place with bookworm.

Hi,

MMM-Pir v2 is under coding
Unfortunately, it is not possible to use mode 6 and 7 at the same time (same GPIO)

This module send USER_PRESENCE notification with trueor false payload (it’s the screen state)
You can trigger it with this module MMM-NotificationTrigger and exec a personal script for this

Note:

• python RPi.GPIO will be deleted (in next release) because there is a compatibility problem with pi5 and with bookworm too.
• I will try to recode it with gpiod library for both compatibility

Would it be possible to create a mode in which a relay is switched when detected on the PIR and after the new timer has expired.
So an on off toggle, so to speak. This would make it possible to switch any monitor using the Stanfby button. HDMI on/off would then not be necessary, simply a relay on the monitor button and all monitors could be used.
Unfortunately, I’m not that good at cascading the module.
Thank you for your great work

Thank you very much, I spent the whole day trying to understand notification triggers and producing a config, unfortunately without success.
Maybe you can help me out. how do I do the config so that the trigger can be taken over by mmmpir? I’ve already created a small py script with a gpio pin that goes on and off, it’s in the root directory.
But I just can’t get the execut function to be implemented.

{
module: “MMM-NotificationTrigger”,
config: {
triggers:[
{
trigger: “USER_PRESENCE”,
fires: [
{
exec: “/neu1.py”
}
],
},
]
}
},

@ttt126 said in MMM-Pir toggling:

exec: “/neu1.py”

that means in the root system folder’if you meant YOUR home folder
that would be , replace username with really logged on user for home folder

/home/username/neu1.py

there may have been messages posted to the MM startup output

[ttt126]

Even with /home/pi/neu1.py it is not responding.
Do I have to devine true and fals state in the config as well?

[sdetweil]

@ttt126 can you execute the script manually from the terminal window?

[ttt126]

Yes, this I can.
Kliking - exexute, relay klliks on an off once.
