      Re: Using an Ultrasonic sensor with MMM-PIR-Sensor power-saving functionality

      I’m having this same issue currently and the problem wasn’t solved. It seems to go into Powersave mode with no signal and then tv doesn’t come back on when I am within range of the distance sensor. Also, the distance sensor seems to lag, so I can’t always tell what it is reading.

          this is my config. Any changes I should make? First trying to get the sensor to work properly monitoring distance, then make it turn on the display when presence is detected.
