    @incubik have you checked your Web inspector?

        I got my sensor and hooked it up, same problem.

        Yes, I am using node version 6.0. When I did the install that’s the version that was installed, I think the install script now installs an older version?

          I’ve tried to use PIN 26. In my electron errorlog, there was this msg:

          [Error: digitalRead: IsInt32(arguments['pin']) === false]
          

          So I went back to PIN 22 and now my mirror starts again. :-)

          EDIT:

          New idea -> Try without ’ ';

          {
          module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor’,
          config: {
          sensorPIN: 2 ,
          }
          }

            @incubik I don’t use that browser, Google it :)
            @pugsly Node v6 is not supported at the moment.
            @Bangee yes, the pin has to be an int :) @incubik you also made that mistake!

              Ok, I will!

              Maybe it is a hardware problem? I’ve connected the PIR-sensor this way, is this correct?

                @incubik Looks fine, the hardware does not influence the module behavior tough, you could also run it without something connected.

                  Ok, so if it doesn’t support v6, how can @Bangee made it work? I guess I should:

                  1. Uninstall NodeJS v6 and install v5
                    or
                  2. Delete the Sensor Module for now

                  ??

                    When I checked it did not work, maybe the dependencies were updated since then. If not install v5 :)

                      This PDF shows how to adjust your PIR Sensor.

                      https://cdn.openimpulse.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/wpsc/downloadables/DYP-ME003_PIR_Sensor_Module_Datasheet.pdf

                      Today, i don’t know why but after a few minutes the monitor turns off, but then it reactivates again without any motion in front of the mirror. Any sugestions?
