      Hi,
      im using the MMM-Pir module.
      I set the timer on 30 second. If i move in front of the sensor the time resets itself and starts the countdown for new.
      so far so good!

      if the sensor does not detect any movement the screen disappears and the monitor switch off into standby mode.

      so far so good!

      but after another 30 seconds in Standby mode the Screen turns on automatically without any movement.

      I have already taped over the sensor that im sure there is no movement possible. Same problem again.
      it seems to be on a endless loop.

      Does anybody know this problem??

        Hi, a user of my Screensave module reported a similar problem a couple of days ago and worked out a solution.
        Maybe take a look at the troubleshooting section at the end of my readme under
        https://github.com/Tom-Hirschberger/MMM-Screen-Powersave-Notification

          Hi,
          Thx for your answer.
          I saw your Information on the end.
          But I can’t find the related .txt file under path
          /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt

          There is not a folder firmware inside.
          Do you have perhaps another solution??

          Thanks in advance

            Hi,

            on older OS Versions (i.e. Bullseye) the file is located under /boot/cmdline.txt

              Hi,
              I saw this file, but there is no vc4.force_hotplug Parameter listet.
              Should I easily add it?

                @Sceetch Hi, yes, you will need to add it to the end of the single line that is in the file

                    Hi,

                    Sorry for answering so late.
                    The problem already exists.☹️

                    To modify the Text file doesen’t solve the problem.
                    I have actually no solution.

                    Do u have another hint?

                      from my desktop system for example
