Just found your guide: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/5274/how-to-manually-install-mm-on-your-pi-for-absolute-beginners

Going at it now and see if it works - thanks for the patience and writing that guide!

{
   		module: "weather",
   			position: "top_right",
   				config: {
   			type: "forecast",
   			units: "metric",
   			roundTemp: "true",
   			degreeLabel: "true",
   			showPrecipitationProbability: "true",
   			colored: "true",
   			apiVersion: "3.0",
   			lat: "123.123123",
   			lon: "321.321312",
   			apiKey: "abcdefg",
   					},
 },

That still results in no display of the weather module :/

Can you please write me the code? I am seriously going mental over “not having anything loading” to “no config file” to just partially loading things…

This is really frustrating when you got 0 clue about coding to not figure out where the heck the issue is… ._.

This code doesnt create a missing config file but doesnt load the module. If i just enter the weather module (without config) it loads but only shows the current weather, but i would like to get the forecast for my region with the current API Version which is apparently 3.0

{
   		module: "weather",
   			position: "top_right",
   				config: {
     // See 'Configuration options' for more information.
   			type: "forecast",
   			units: "metric",
   			roundTemp: true,
   			degreeLabel: true,
   			showPrecipitationProbability: true,
   			colored: true,
   			apiVersion: 3.0,
   			lat: 123123,
   			lon: 312321,
   			apiKey: "asdasdasd123123asedasd123",
   					},
 },

@sdetweil @mumblebaj
Thanks to both of you. i used the command in the cd and it works.

Just as a question: how am i able to adjust from when to when the module gets suspendend?

i found the coding but not sure how i enter the values in the config file

suspend: function() {
		clearInterval(this.timerHandle)
		this.timerHandle = null
	},

	resume: function() {
		this.startTimer()
	}

Also - do i need aditional modules for the suspend / resume feature?

Kastore

i got the modules via the comands you send, however the “git checkout withsuspend” comes back with

“error: pathspec ‘withsuspend’ did not match any file(s) known to git”

Kastore

@sdetweil i am setting it up today and will run some tests. Will get back to you asap :)

Kastore

@sdetweil Awefully sorry for not replying till now - didnt see the message about a new reply.

Thanks alot for adjusting the module!

@sdetweil
Okay that makes sense to stop and resume them but i am guessing i would need to somehow code the hide and show into the module as well.
Since i got no clue on coding i am not sure if that will help me unforunately

Hey everyone,

I got the MM-TomTomCalculateRouteTraffic module and it is making calls with a TomTom API - now i would like to have really high amount of calls in the morning (about once every 30s) and non after a certain time.

Is it possible to config a module to be deactivated after a certain time? e.g. run it from 7-8am and then not?

Kastore

@sdetweil
Just tried it with another pin (pin 20) and the results are completly different. So i am not sure what to make out of the infos i get from the script.

Gosh this is such a bummer that the sensor for some reason decided to quit…

Guess i will have to build in a switch or something to turn on the mirror for X minutes and use the existing script for it

Kastore

@sdetweil
Thanks for the links. I ran the 2nd script and it came back with constant “motion detected” and “motion stopped” while there was I wasnt moving.

Which is a bit strange as the only thing i did was reconnect the existing cable to pin 17… (the soldering came off)

Hello everyone,

I just repaired my connection of the PIR Sensor and the Pi. Doing so i thought this should be it and the sensor work again.

However: For some reason the Module is not working as intended.

Intention:
Monitor being on for 20s when movement has been registered

Current behavior:
Either being ONLY when movement is detected or CONSTANTLY on

Status Quo:
The old code i have used and worked is as follows:

{
	module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor',
	config: {
		     sensorPin: 14,
		     powerSaving: true,
	             OffDelay: 20000,
	}

Doing so will have the monitor turned off instantly unless i move.

{
	module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor',
	config: {
		     sensorPin: 14,
		     powerSaving: true,
	             powerSavingDelay: 15,
	}

this code will have the MM on “forever” (well i havent been standing infront of the mirror for minutes… so i cant tell if forever…) at least not after 15s

I am a bit at a loss as to what has changed… i have not updated any modules or the MM… reconecting the pin 17 to the sensor was all I did…

Any help is highly appreciated

@BKeyport
Hey Keyport - thanks for the reply.

I was just reeeeally confused since i had a connector on the first pins and that didnt make any sense.

I will def. get one of these boards for my new Mirror as that just makes it so much easier to wire it up and it looks clean!
