<![CDATA[MMM-PIR or MMM-PIR-Sensor issues...]]>Hi all, I’ve been building in the background for some time now but I’ve come across a problem trying to install a PIR.

My MM project all set up and running great, but I wanted to turn off the display with either of the above PIR modules and I’ve come across some issues.

When I add this code to my config.js after installing MMM-PIR-Sensor

        {
	module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor',
	config: {
		     sensorPin: 14,
		     powerSaving: true,
	             powerSavingDelay: 40,
	}
	}

My MM won’t load, I get a white screen which says;

“localhost refused to connect”

ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

I’ve followed the install exactly and can’t see what’s going wrong!

cheers onis

  • Thanks to don’t to advertise any of my modules on this forum
  • Thanks to not offer any support of my modules on this forum

I repeat again (again, again ?):

  • I am not a reference in this forum
  • I’m a VERY BAD guys in this forum
  • That’s why any of my modules is not on the 3rd party modules

You can use 1 of 2 methods here:

or [even better solution IMO]

Either way, i found another way which is using the command 'vcgencmd display_power 0 2' and
'vcgencmd display_power 1 2' 
where the 0 stands for Off and 1 stands for On and the 2 stands for my display ID.

Did you add the user to the GPIO group and executed the command for turning the HDMI on/off?
