Motion Detector
-
I apologize if this a very noob question but I am having trouble getting the motion detector module running. I have clone the files to the module folder. I have modified the config file but maybe I dont have it correct. Could some one show me how the config file be modified to get the module running. Any other pointers? Thank you,

@oscarkindberg try hdmi_blanking=1in /boot/config.txt
-
@phoenixrising look at the last reply of in_a_days.
If that is not working post your config.js here. -
@danielis Where do I fint that? I’ve searched all the .js files in the module and config.
-
@oscarkindberg it is the file config.txt in the folder /boot/
type ‘sudo nano /boot/config.txt’ without ’
add as last line:
hdmi_blanking=1 -
@danielis Actually got it to work now, changed to “updateInterval: 10000” from “updateInterval: 1000” and in diff-cam-engine.js I changed captureIntervalTime to 1000 instead of 100.
Made it easier on the RBP3 i think.
Downloaded MMM-SystemStats to keep check on sysload during config and it’s lookin’ good now.
Thanks for the help! I’ll comeback with a picture of the mirror as soon as my mirrorglas arrives. -
@oscarkindberg where is the updateinterval located?
-
@phoenixrising Sorry! I meant timeout: 10000 in config.js file. Copy pasted wrong part

@alexyak I’m using raspberry pi 3 with the camera module. And the motiondetection module.
Could not initiate the module before I ran sudo modprobe bcm2835-v4l2 but even after I never get any motion “score”.
I inspected the diffImageData it all contained 0,0,0,255 in series…
The camera works when using raspistill. Any hints of what I can test to debug the camera output within electro?

@Jhonte , post your config file.
