    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!

        We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?

          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?

                    @Bangee you can always try to add some logging to the code console.log("something") to see where it is triggered and if the script is the cause or something else :)
