MMM-Universal-Pir issues

[eyesallin]

Hi
Apologies I’m a complete noob.
I’ve been using the old MMM-PIR but now I’ve updated to the latest software it stopped working.
I have now in stalled MMM-Universal-Pir, the countdown works fine but when it hits zero the screen stays on, the pir can be reset but each it hits zero it just stays on.
Can someone tell me what I’m doing wrong?

@eyesallin ,
MMM-Universal-Pir needs correct configuration for the screen-on / screen-off commands.
These commands are dependant of your Pi-Model and OS.
The default is for bookworm/wayland config.
If your Pi differs you need the correct command.
For older OS versions this are commands with xrandr …

Good luck.
Regards,
Ralf

Hi Ralf

Thank for responding.
I am using a PI 5 with Linux bookworm

How do i go about configuring the commands.

@eyesallin the module provides config options, see the readme

OK, with Pi5/bookworm the wayland standard config should work…
Or do you have re-configured to X11?

You can check right syntax for your system by trial&error on commandline in terminal window.
If you are working headless (remote terminal) you have to place a „DISPLAY:0“ in front of the command you are trying…
