      Hi

      I have had MMM-Pir module running perfectly for months. When I updated my RPi 3B+ to the latest updates this week the module produce the same error message

      Pir Error Detected: EINVAL: invalid argument, write

      I have tried reinstalling the module but no luck.

      Any help greatly appreciated

      Thanks

          Hi, check pir_mode feature in readme readme

          by default pir_mode is on mode 0
          With pi 4 and pi 5, you can have EINVAL: invalid argument, write error
          In this case
          you have to use with pi 4: pir_mode: 1,
          with pi 5 pir_mode: 2,

              @bugsounet thank you changing to pir_mode 1 fixed the problem. Just for awareness I am running on a RPi 3 B+ Rev 1.3 hence why I didn’t do this sooner.
