      @ejay-ibm said in Blank screen issue ( another one again ) after one hour or so...:

      // {
      // “module”: “updatenotification”,
      // “position”: “top_bar”
      // },

      Is that the module you are talking about ( as you can see it’s already commented ) ? If not how do you disable the updater module ?

      I’m running dev mode now waiting for the issue to reoccur.

      thanks

        module.js:198 				MMM-Hotword is suspended.
        module.js:198				MMM-PIR-Sensor is suspended.
        module.js:198 				clock is suspended.
        module.js:198 				MMM-AssistantMk2 is suspended.
        module.js:198 				MMM-Traffic is suspended.

        module.js:198 				newsfeed is suspended.
        received TRAFFIC_COMMUTE 	MMM-Traffic.js:273 
        

        I Get now blank screen . Nothing happens in the log/dev console

        Now I moove and screen goes ON , but MM still blank I say “Jarvis” and the console logs shows.

        clock received a module notification: ASSISTANT_ACTIVATE from sender: MMM-Hotword
        module.js:154 clock received a module notification: HOTWORD_PAUSE from sender: MMM-AssistantMk2

        newsfeed.js:340 newsfeed - received notification: HOTWORD_SLEEPING
        newsfeed.js:391 newsfeed - unknown notification, ignoring: HOTWORD_SLEEPING
        module.js:205 clock is resumed.
        module.js:205 MMM-AssistantMk2 is resumed.
        module.js:205 MMM-Hotword is resumed.
        module.js:205 MMM-Traffic is resumed.
        module.js:205 MMM-Hue is resumed.
        module.js:205 MMM-DarkSkyForecast is resumed.
        module.js:205 MMM-PIR-Sensor is resumed.
        module.js:205 mmm-systemtemperature is resumed.
        module.js:205 newsfeed is resumed.
        
        

        So it look like the suspended state create the blank screen. (am I right ? :/ )
        If yes Now the question is , how to prevent the modules to be suspended.
        Is that because of the PIR module ?

        thanks

          Searching for similar log in other thread I found someone saying :
          “It might be due to “onIdle” and “onDetected” features. Disable them”
          So I have added to my config.js in the MM assistant module

           onIdle: {
                timer: 0,  // if you don't want to use this feature, just set timer as `0` or command as ""
                command: "HIDEMODULES"
              },
          

          I’m testing and will report results.
          Thanks

            Ok Great ! That was the issue !
            Placing the timer to 0 prevent the module to be suspended .

            Now I would like to put this back in the code so the modules in suspended mode that is great as indeed I don’t need them update when the screen is Off but i’d like to resume with the onDetected when motion is detected by the PIR module ?

            Is it possible to Sync the Idle and onDetected with the PIR Module ?

            Thanks .

              Me again

              I Would Say that you should mark the post as solved As We have root cause here.
              I have created that git

              https://github.com/paviro/MMM-PIR-Sensor/issues/73
              To get some help from paviro and see if the ondetected function of MK2 assistant could be implemented in the PIR module so they could be kind of sync.

              Thanks to @sdetweil for driving me in the right debug way for finding the root cause of the problem.
