@STEFF92
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?

@johnnyboy But it doesnt matter as long as i use the gpio that belongs to this pin or am i wrong?

[STEFF92]

@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.

@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
  }
},

@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?

[strawberry 3.141]

@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

Hi all,

I’ve been trying to instal this module, but i’m bumping into the issue of needing node module 53, as it was compiled with 48. I’ve been at this all day and i’m really struggling. Can anyone offer any advice? Thanks in advance!

@Oliver_Tooth
Please search this forum for “version mismatch”. I’m on my smartphone right now, otherwise I would post the command necessary.
You need to rebuild the module with a special command providing the version info related to your system

[Oliver_Tooth]

@yawns Cheers for this. I’ve had a quick browse but i’m struggling to find anything that works. If your able to post the command whenever you’re able to i’d really appreciate it! thanks.

@Oliver_Tooth
Sure, tomorrow morning

@Oliver_Tooth

all right …

Open a terminal and do this:

cd ~/MagicMirror
npm list | grep electron

You will see something like this:

├─┬ electron-prebuilt@1.4.5
│ ├─┬ electron-download@3.0.1
npm ERR! peer dep missing: grunt@~0.4.0, required by grunt-yamllint@0.2.0

Note the version of electron, in this case it is 1.4.5, if it is different for you please replace the version accordingly.
Afterwards run this:

cd modules/MMM-PIR-Sensor
npm rebuild --runtime=electron --target=1.4.5 --disturl=https://atom.io/download/atom-shell --abi=50

Now the module should not throw a version mismatch error any more.
