    • Monitor goes to sleep within minutes

      I have installed MM a week back it was all fine however since couple of days my monitor goes to sleep mode within minutes of powering on RPi.

      Post installing I was playing around with couple of modules but one suspect might be PIR-Sensor though I have it disconnected currently.

      My setup to disable sleep mode:

      sudo nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart
      

      Added below part

      @xset s noblank
      @xset s off
      @xset -dpms
      

      I couldn’t find [SeatDefaults] so as a trial I made changes in Seat Configuration and [Seat : *]

      /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

    • RE: My First Mirror... until now ^^

      @cruunnerr My PIR doesn’t trigger or do anything. When I try to execute python script below is the error message.

      Error Message

      All of sudden my monitor started going to sleep so I made below changes,

      sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
      

      Add the following lines to the [SeatDefaults] section:

      xserver-command=X -s 0 dpms

    • RE: Configured PIR sensor but won't trigger

      That was a helpful thread.

      I noticed mine did work couple of times, it is working sporadically not sure what is causing that?

      Also, many posts are suggesting to use breadboard why is that? I have never used one so not sure its use. Do you know how can I use same PIR sensor to turn on led lights and which type of led does rpi and pir suport

    • Configured PIR sensor but won't trigger

      Quite new to MM and this is me trying first module.

      I connected the pins (which I think might be the problem) and added module in config.js too. Now my MM is booting and modules are being displayed but the senor is not turning off the monitor.

      I strongly believe the issue might be with the pins I have connected, cause I have zero knowledge about these connections.

      Can you please check these connections?

      If not what else could be the problem?

      and ran into below error
