PIR gives black screen

Richard238

I added a PIR to my MM, and I get a black screen, and no MM in browser on other LAN devices.
Hitting the ‘Windows’ key brings up the Pi start menu, where I can lunch terminal and stop MM.
A simple test script confirms the PIR device is working correctly without MM running.

Any ideas on how to fix this, please?

Here are the errors, and my config.

{ Error: Cannot find module 'onoff'

Config:

		config: {
				sensorPIN:22,
                powerSaving: true,
                relayPIN: false,
				powerSavingDelay: 0,
                relayOnState: 1

		}
	},

After running git clone https://github.com/paviro/MMM-PIR-Sensor.git in ~/MagicMirror/modules, did you run

cd MMM-PIR-Sensor
npm install

? The npm install in this directory should have installed onoff as a dependency.

That seems to have fixed it, thank you.
There’s now a prompt at the top of MM saying there’s an update available for the PIR module.
How do I go about updating an individual module?

In your example:

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PIR-Sensor
git pull
npm install

So you enter the modules directory, tell git to retrieve (= pull) the latest code from github and afterwards you install dependencies again, just in case

Perfect, thank you! :)
