Motion Detector

Hi alexyak
I try it with the commands an it works, it switch off and on.
-
Ok, the next step let’s check whether the off state is detected correctly. After you switched off the monitor with the first command try to execute this in the ssh term:
/opt/vc/bin/tvservice -s
and let me know which output you see.
-
output is:
state 0x120002 [TV is off] -
@trividar @cowboysdude paviro is also using the same code lines in his pir sensor module and a user had similar issues, maybe his solution also work for you

Thanks everyone I will look into this later today!

@strawberry-3-141 unfortunately it didn’t work for me;0( but thanks for your input.

@trividar I thought the commands are working for you, as you pointed out 2 hours ago? I was struggling with this myself for a seperate module, it didn’t work in the terminal i had to login at tty6 or with the solution I posted I got weird colors and a zoom effect on my screen, but in the node_helper it worked at least for me.

@strawberry-3-141 This two things work for me if i put it in the terminal:
Switch off:
/opt/vc/bin/tvservice -o
Switch-on:
/opt/vc/bin/tvservice --preferred && sudo chvt 6 && sudo chvt 7
But not the module. I tried to change node_helper, but if I tried to start pm2 start mm.sh i got just a white screen. Sorry I’m not a coder, I just start to learn.
-
@trividar can you post your pm2 logs
-
I will… I will be in one hour at home and I will post it.
