LG FLatron 2242PE check signal cable PIR Sensor

[Justinvd0203]

I had a small “problem”, i got the PIR motion sensor to work, when there is no motion the signal to the monitor gets closed. However when this happens my monitor shows the message: Check signal cable. Is there a way to turn this off or is there a work-around?

Monitor should get to sleep if there is no signal … this should be configurable somewhere in monitor menu / configuration (try buttons on monitor to set it up)

@Justinvd0203
I had a similar problem with my LG Monitor and PIR-Sensor.
In my case i had the following behavior:

• Using HDMI Connection: switching off was possible, wake up not
• Using VGA Connection (with HDMI->VGA adapter on RPI side): switching off an wake up was possible

Details see post.

No worry using HDMI->VGA adapter: VGA can also deliver FullHD Resolution.

Maybe your problem could be solved with an adapter.
