@nneuland use ssh to connect to the pi so u can work on it.

I hope that I have enabled SSH on the raspberry. I think I had.
I have yet to try accessing the pi yet from SSH, but fingers crossed.

Yes. I am using PIR as a motion sensor. I have tried detaching the PIR with no luck.

@nneuland , If the PIR sensor does not work, the mirror does not work.

@george

I believe the PIR is working fine. Just not sure why the HDMI connection is immediately lost after the mirror has loaded.

Wouldn’t disconnecting the PIR from the Pi correct this?

[sdetweil]

@nneuland the pir module has turned off the hdmi port… (as if no motion, time to sleep)

@sdetweil

Not sure how that happened out of nowhere. I should delete the PIR module through ssh to see what’s going on then?

Unless I can modify the config file through the remote app. Not sure that’s safe though.

@nneuland things work reliably until they dont!
if u can thru remote, just add disabled:true,
after the pir module name line

[Nneuland]

@nneuland
Nothing truer has been said. I’ll give it a go

[Nneuland]

@sdetweil

Deleting PIR from the config through the remote worked!

Thank you Sam.
