    Without the proper tools or instruments, you have to be really careful that you don’t short out the inverter or cause other damage.

    A Life? Cool! Where can I download one of those from?

      I found the description of the board and pins:
      http://www.vslcd.com/Specification/T.VST29.03.pdf

      “CN2” describes the pinout for the invertor.
      Pin 3 is backlight on/off and pin 4 is for the adjustment of the brightness.

        Perfect, you could only unplug this cable and the LCD shound be without background. It’s simple test. :) Next plug this cable to PIR output and as i wrote in first post, don’t remember hook up ground between LVDS and Raspberry.

          I just posted a question about PIR connection to a similar board. Feel free to help me out guys :)

          https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/503/pir-sensor-to-cut-backlight-power

          @TomasZmuda if you look at my option 2. do I need to ground inverter and Pi?

          thanks!

            I tested unplugging pin 3 and you are right: the display / backlight ist switched off 👍
            I also got me a voltmeter and checked the currents :) seems to be identical to your setup. So next, I’ll connect a PIR, check the current and connect it as you described.

            Thanks!
