        I’ve been reading lots of other modules and they all have instructions that say to use the " npm install" command… Do I need to do that for this mod?

        I’m sorry but there were NO instructions with this mod, and I’m NOT a technical person.

          @Centurion I haven’t used that module though. But for what purposes do you wanna use motion sensor - just to trigger screen on/off in case human body detected? If so check out PIR-motion sensor from 3rd party modules on github.
          I guess these module is still under development.
          P.S: In RPi terminal - is your console (you opening Terminal (black window) and in order to launch MagicMirror software you type into Terminal - “npm start”)

            @Sultan91 Thanks, I ordered those parts on Amazon too since I haven’t gotten much response here.

            Really hope that one’s easier to figure out.

            I launch MM by typing “pm2 start mm”. How do people watch the console after they launch it? Someone said to check the logs…?
