This won’t help you with this module but this module supposedly is old and has issues so this says…
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/10674/mmm-face-reco-dnn-all-new-face-recognition

This module however works fine (I just installed last week)…
https://github.com/nischi/MMM-Face-Reco-DNN

Not sure if this will help you and sorry if this is obvious…
but if you want you could pre set up their wifi for them…

edit the wpa_supplicant.conf

When you connect to wifi the wpa_supplicant.conf file is created with your ssid’s and passwords etc etc…

So you can connect to your own wifi… then go edit the conf file and ADD their wifi …

When you first write the image to the sd card…there is no conf file because you havent connected to wifi yet (obviously)… so when done writing your sd card image… you can open the sd card (on widows or whatever) and create the wpa_supplicant.conf in the root with the info needed … otherwise just connect to wifi then edit the file.

Not sure if that helps you all that much but you can pre set it up you just need their info like SSID they would connect to and password

sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

Below is what mine looks like with 2 ssid’s to choose from …

ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1
country=US

network={
        ssid="SSID HERE"
        psk="PASSWORDHERE"
        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}

network={
        ssid="SSID2 HERE"
        psk="PASSWORDHERE"
        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}

@cmer3 said in Best PIR Strategy for RPI4?:

Hi, I am a noob , doing my first mirror project. I plan to have a PIR sensor to wake the mirror up from sleep. There seem to be 3 ways to do this: MMM-PIR Sensor, MMM-newPIR, and what I guess is a shell script? at https://www.putorius.net/using-pir-sensor-for-motion-detection.html. Is there a best approach for RPI4?

If it matters any… I used to use MMM-PIR but for the monitor I am currently using …when the monitor “goes to sleep” because of no motion, it would put my monitor to “sleep” …displaying a banner… not waking up… or you will get it to wake up but it shows the input HDMI that it is on (then goes away)…

With MMM-NEWPIR … it has the ability to put up a “black screen” type of thing… keeping the monitor “awake” but it is black… when motion it goes away and restarts the timer as motion continues…

That is basically the only reason why I used it… and I have it working on a PI3b+ and a 4 (4g ram).

Installed module last night … Great work! and Thank you again for creating this module!

While installing I now understand why the CODE from ecobee module may have been missed by others.
I was expecting to see the code and still took a minute or second look to see the code at the very bottom of the last sentence in the instructions on screen. If this CODE could maybe be larger or maybe a color that stands out?? Might help a little .

I too would like to choose which sensors are shown…or show them in a specific order.

One more thing that I would love would be making the module smaller.
I am still learning all of this and I played with Custom.css but of course the module will start to cut the wording and sensors off from visually being seen from the bottom up.

I will play more with it tonight… but this is awesome already! Thank you!
