      Has anybody setup ProfileSwitcher to work with a PIR sensor?
      I like the idea of having a photo slideshow as the default profile that switches to a data view upon detecting motion but I haven’t found a way to do this yet.

        I know this is an old topic but in case anyone has had this question, I was able to use a PIR sensor with the MMM-ProfileSwitcher module. I simply added modified this section of MMM-ProfileSwitcher.js with the lines in bold:

            // Override the default NotificationRecieved function
            notificationReceived: function (notification, payload, sender) {
                if (notification === "DOM_OBJECTS_CREATED") {
                    Log.log("Hiding all non default modules.");
                    this.set_profile(this.config.includeEveryoneToDefault);
                    this.sendNotification("CHANGED_PROFILE", {to: this.config.defaultClass});
                } else if (notification === "CURRENT_PROFILE") {
                    this.change_profile(payload);
                } <strong>else if (notification == 'USER_PRESENCE') {
                        this.change_profile("Profile2")</strong>
                    }
        
        },
        

        To explain, the MMM-PIR-Sensor module sends a notification to all modules when it detects movement. The notification is “USER_PRESENCE”. You simply check for it within your MMM-ProfileSwitcher module and tell it to change the profile. Hope this helps
