Pir Sensor not shutting off screen.

@tinsebayacc
This is the tutorial ive been following -
@tinsebayacc some devices do not have the ability to turn to back… (none of my TV’s do)…
I wrote my MMM-SleepWake (on github) module to provide the ability to hide all modules to darken the screen…
its not off, and at night it has a glow (the backlight)… but its better than nothing…i don’t care how you detect motion, camera, pir, wave, …
when you do, call my provided script with ‘started’, and when the motion ends, call it again with ‘ended’
see the readme.set the “mode” to “hide”
I use a webcam for motion detection -
@sdetweil Thank you for your reply
This would work for me. As I mentioned I am a beginner in all this. How would I configure your module to work with my pir sensor. Sorry if this seems a daft question, I’m still learning the ropes. Thanks

Modify you script *

I just added some code to my module to handle PIR_SENSOR sending notice of user around…
so you shouldn’t have to change anything there… well, stop it from turning off the display
