Who can help me to find my PIR Sensor problem ?

Using:
Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Rev 1.2
processor : 3
model name : ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l)
BogoMIPS : 76.80
Features : half thumb fastmult vfp edsp neon vfpv3 tls vfpv4 idiva idivt vfpd32 lpae evtstrm crc32
CPU implementer : 0x41
CPU architecture: 7
CPU variant : 0x0
CPU part : 0xd03
CPU revision : 4
Hardware : BCM2835
Revision : a02082
Serial : 00000000af2e503e

MMM v2.1.3
https://github.com/paviro/MMM-PIR-Sensor.git

already done:
git clone …
npm install …
chmod on user and map structures

All i get is my normal MM screen and every other modul works fine.
Testing on Motion-test.js shows me the correct status, and turns HDMI monitor off and on.

also tested the MMM-MotionCensor but the same problem. the monitor is not going to sleep.

Bob thnx,

It’s working fine now.
just iinstalled it like a service and added the PIR.PY a litle bit just for my personal settings and my HDMI screen turns off afther 5 minutes.

Next thing i want to do is to include it as a module in he MMM Remote Control app so i can show or hide the status and countdown time on un mobile or screen.

tHNx again Bob.

back again,
uncutter installed and is working
remote controle module installed and is working from pc and my iPhone, top app.
i can turn monitor off/on
when i check the PIR on Python Idle3 it’s handeling motion correctly.
BUT on the live mirror the PIR does nothing…

HELP !

thanks for the quick replay.
I did instyall the unclutter for mouse pointer disable but not the way you discriped.
I wil try what you typed above.

1. sudo apt-get install x11-xserver-utils unclutter
2. disabling the screensaver

Afther that i take a look at the install of the remote control module.

The Python script was only to show that the PIR is working outside MM2
And i don’t run it the same time.

i will inform back.

this is my first post, so be gantle with me please… ;-)

PIR motion works on test but my hdmi connected screen ceeps on, it will not going off.

Some PIR Test info on Python Idle3:
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import time
sensor = 4
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
GPIO.setup(sensor, GPIO.IN, GPIO.PUD_DOWN)
previous_state = False
current_state = False
while True:
time.sleep(0.1)
previous_state = current_state
current_state = GPIO.input(sensor)
if current_state != previous_state:
new_state = “HIGH” if current_state else “LOW”
print(“GPIO pin %s is %s” % (sensor, new_state))

OUTPUT on waving to PIR:
GPIO pin 4 is HIGH
GPIO pin 4 is LOW
GPIO pin 4 is HIGH
GPIO pin 4 is LOW
GPIO pin 4 is HIGH
GPIO pin 4 is LOW
GPIO pin 4 is HIGH

Whoops! There was an uncaught exception…

MagicMirror will not quit, but it might be a good idea to check why this happened. Maybe no internet connection?

Settings:
Edit /boot/config.txt
set hdmi_force_unplug=1
sdtv_mo=2 // Normal PAL

sudo su
/var/spool/cron/crontabs
@reboot python /home/pi/Documents/PIR/pir.py &

Also done:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo reboot
in MMM-PIR-Sensor folder
npm install
sudo reboot

what O what can it be ?
