After a complete fresh install of Pi OS Bookworm (32 bit) and MM everything works fine on my PI 2B except turning the screen on and off via PIR.
The PIR works, tried it via a script.
Does anybody have a script to get it working with Bookworm, within MM or outside?

RE: PIR problem
@karsten13 I tried MMM-Pir-Sensor-Lite: counting down works and is re-activated whenever I move my hand in front of the sensor.
But the screen does not turn off.

RE: PIR problem
@wishmaster270 sorry for my stupid question, I use Gpio pin 17, do I have to use that number in line 6 of your test script?

@wishmaster270 said in PIR problem:
@Peter
There can be a lot of reasons why the PIR modules are not working anymore.
What module did you use in the previous setup?
Did you run “npm install” in the module again? Or did you only copy the directory to the new setup?
Are there any errors during the installation of the module?You can use my test script to check if the sensor it self triggers an event.
Next step would be to test if the command which controls the screen. Most modules use
vcgencmd
If you run the following command to display should be shut off and 20 seconds later it should be shut on again.
Best way is to run the command via ssh shell./usr/bin/vcgencmd display_power 0; echo "Display should now be off"; sleep 20; /usr/bin/vcgencmd display_power 1; echo "And now it should be on again"
Thanks for your answer.
I used MMM-Pir_Sensor in my previous setup.
I made a complete new install, so I did not copy the directory to the new setup.
I will try your commands in the next days, will keep you informed.

PIR problem
Hi smart people,
My MM has been running without major problems for 5 years.
Lately I experienced some problems, so decided to make a fresh install: Bullseye, MM 2.22 on a Pi 3.
After a lot of work (I am not really good at this, mostly copy-paste) the MM is running.Just 2 problems: major problem: I cannot get de PIR sensor to work anymore (worked perfectly for 5 year).
I tried MMM-Pir (nothing), and MMM-Pir-Sensor-Light (I can see it countdown from 15 minutes, but after 15 minutes the counter starts allover), so it does not turn off the screen.Smaller problem: the default Calendar module disappears after some time and gets back after some more time, strange behaviour.
Can somebody give me an answer (maybe two …)?
Thanks in advance!Peter

RE: Pir sensor
@MyMirror unfortunately it does not work here.
Pi3, Bullseye, MM2.22: PIR-Sensor does not work at all, PIR-Sensor-Light counts down from 15 minutes, but starts again without turning off the screen.
No idea what to do.
My MM has been working flawlessly for 5 years, but after the new fresh install with 2.22 I am having this problem.
Can anybody help?
