PIR / MQTT - Presence sensor(s) revived
-
@rkorell sadly it does not work: Pi 2b, bookworm, Pir only.
It says: Presence: no
It has worked for years with MMM-Pir on Bullseye.
Can you help please?

Dear @Peter,
I can imagine that this is a restriction of your hardware.
I’m not THAT system specialist but as far as I remember there are some limitations regarding environment and software versions on Pi2b …
Because the “actuality” of used libgpiod this may doesn’t work on this specific hardware.I can imagine Sam (@sdetweil ) can deliver a more precise statement on this.
On pi4/5 with “current” MM versions this works - and yesterday I got feedback regarding a successful installation.
Is there any log-entry which can be useful here?
Is the right GPIO configured for PIR?
Is the PIR sensor functional / calibrated?
Is power/ground connected to PIR?
Is power supply sufficient and working?Regards,

@rkorell
The Pir worked fine with MMM-Pir and Bullseye on the Pi 2b.
Fresh install with Bookworm: everything worked fine except the Pir.
That is why I tried your module.

Dear @Peter,
Yes fully understood…
Without context - and may an answer regarding my questions - It‘s really hard to help.Warmest regards,
