@jon4s Are you running Bulls Eye? If so, then it won’t work (see https://github.com/paviro/MMM-PIR-Sensor/issues/123).
Obviousl you should stick with Buster.

@fozi said in MMM-PIR-Sensor:

Bulls Eye

I’m not sure if i am running bullseye, How can i check this?

sdetweil

@jon4s buster is ok, bullseye not

Jon4s

@Fozi @sdetweil and everybody else
So i’m running buster now,
And after some issues the MM turns on with the PIR sensor connected.
However, when the screen turns black and goes into the powersaving mode after the amount of seconds i put in.

powerSavingDelay: 30,

In the the example after 30 seconds, but i’ve tried 5 and 60 also. The problem remains and the screen doesn’t turn back on.
I use the command

tvservice -p

Via ssh to turn the screen back on again, after that it doesn’t goes into saving again.
I tried different pins already and i’m stuck again :(

I’m not using a condensator, coz lots of tutorials don’t use those,
Any thoughts what i can do to make the sensor work?

@jon4s try this one instead:

MMM-NewPIR

This one works great!!! Works on Pi3 and Pi4
