      Does anyone have a great tutorial that they used to set up their PIR motion sensor into their MagicMirror? All of the ones that I have are not too great and don’t explain everything well. I am a beginner and do not know what I am doing. Any help/advice?

          If you understand Dutch :winking_face:
          I din’t use a MM Module, because that didn’t work for me. I like the mirror to blank even if MM is not running. So I use this alternative Python script.

                  @bmadeira were you a beginner when you first tried this? I ruined my last Pi when I tried to hook up the PIR sensor.
