      @Jay I forgot what I did here to fix this issue. But to be honest after I got this working it still wasnt perfect. I ended going the route of a script on startup that controls the PIR sensor and its been perfect since and simple.

          @fox This PR should have fixed the issue (it is merged into the master).

          Are you running MagicMirror 2.1.0? And is your PIR-Module up-to-date? Try updating both (see this and do it in both directories) to the newest version.

            I deleted PIR Sensor completely. And made a new installation of this module and it installed without Problems. looks good from now

                Hi, i tried to install the module MMM-PIR-Sensor. I did it like its explained here:

                https://github.com/paviro/MMM-PIR-Sensor

                After installing the module i opened the config.js file an added:

                {
                			module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor',
                			config: {
                				sensorPIN: 23,
                                                powerSaving: true,
                                                relayPIN: none,
                                                relayOnState: 1,
                			}
                		},
                

                The way i connected the sensor is shown in the following picture:

                alt text

                But when i want to start the magic mirror it says that i have to add a correct config.js file.
                What did i wrong? Please help me guys ;)

                  Did you change the name of the config File from “config.js.sample” to “config.js”?

                                  What is not working;

                                  • Do you still have the problem with the config.sys, when post your config.sys here.
                                  • Is the PIR not switching off you screen?

                                      @pjkoeleman when i want to start the magic mirror it says that i should create a correct config.js file. But the only thing i added in my config.js file (which runs without the following lines) is:

                                                     {
                                      			module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor',
                                      			config: {
                                      				sensorPIN: 23,
                                                                      powerSaving: true,
                                                                      relayPIN: none,
                                                                      relayOnState: 1,
                                      			}
                                      		},

                                          @johnnyboy yes i tried it like this :

                                                         {
                                          			module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor',
                                          			config: {
                                          				sensorPIN: 23,
                                                                          powerSaving: true,
                                                                          relayPIN: none,
                                                                          relayOnState: 1
                                          			}
                                          		},
                                          

                                          But it dosent work. Same problem as before.
