      @pjkoeleman when i want to start the magic mirror it says that i should create a correct config.js file. But the only thing i added in my config.js file (which runs without the following lines) is:

                     {
      			module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor',
      			config: {
      				sensorPIN: 23,
                                      powerSaving: true,
                                      relayPIN: none,
                                      relayOnState: 1,
      			}
      		},

          @johnnyboy yes i tried it like this :

                         {
          			module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor',
          			config: {
          				sensorPIN: 23,
                                          powerSaving: true,
                                          relayPIN: none,
                                          relayOnState: 1
          			}
          		},

              @STEFF92 none is not a valid js value either use

              {
                module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor',
                config: {
                  sensorPIN: 23,
                  powerSaving: true,
                  relayPIN: false,
                  relayOnState: 1
                }
              },
              

              or like this, because relayPIN is set to false by default

              {
                module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor',
                config: {
                  sensorPIN: 23,
                  powerSaving: true,
                  relayOnState: 1
                }
              },
              

              Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

                @strawberry-3.141 Thanks, now the config file and the magic mirror surface are running but there is no response from the sensor. i have moved the potentiometer but the screen doesnt turn off. Do you know any possible mistake i could have made?

                  @STEFF92 I guess you might defined the wrong pin number according on your setup you use gpio23 which is pin 16 in this diagram https://forum.magicmirror.builders/uploads/files/1485851152518-raspberry-pi-15b.jpg, but I never did something with the gpio of the pi

                  Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

                    Hi all,

                    I’ve been trying to instal this module, but i’m bumping into the issue of needing node module 53, as it was compiled with 48. I’ve been at this all day and i’m really struggling. Can anyone offer any advice? Thanks in advance!

                      Please search this forum for “version mismatch”. I’m on my smartphone right now, otherwise I would post the command necessary.
                      You need to rebuild the module with a special command providing the version info related to your system

                        @yawns Cheers for this. I’ve had a quick browse but i’m struggling to find anything that works. If your able to post the command whenever you’re able to i’d really appreciate it! thanks.
