        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,
            			}
            		},

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

                    @STEFF92 none is not a valid js value either use

                    {
                      module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor',
                      config: {
                        sensorPIN: 23,
                        powerSaving: true,
                        relayPIN: false,
                        relayOnState: 1
                      }
                    },
                    

                    or like this, because relayPIN is set to false by default

                    {
                      module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor',
                      config: {
                        sensorPIN: 23,
                        powerSaving: true,
                        relayOnState: 1
                      }
                    },
                    

                    Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

                      @strawberry-3.141 Thanks, now the config file and the magic mirror surface are running but there is no response from the sensor. i have moved the potentiometer but the screen doesnt turn off. Do you know any possible mistake i could have made?

                        @STEFF92 I guess you might defined the wrong pin number according on your setup you use gpio23 which is pin 16 in this diagram https://forum.magicmirror.builders/uploads/files/1485851152518-raspberry-pi-15b.jpg, but I never did something with the gpio of the pi

                        Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track
