          @Newbie007 PIR-Sensor… is that module still in config.js?

          you can disable it by adding

            disabled: true,
          

          to that module config, after the module: statement

          note that PIR has some dependencies, which can cause black screen…

            Damn! You are right.

            I commented whole PIR-Sensor in config.js but I followed this method as well and forgot about it.

            Currently I have unplugged my PIR, let me plug it again and report back to you.

            But in mean time how can I disable this?

                  I thought I linked you to a comment in that thread which details how to use PIR sensor to turn on/off monitor along with LED lights which is apart from PIR-Sensor module.

                  I commented out the module but forgot about the standalone script. Now we are good.

                  Thanks for your help!
