    • RE: Further development of the MMM-Swipe module

      @nowis Ok so i got the chance to try it with your suggestions and i guess my connections are right and it sort of works!!!

      I got to read a swipe only once … a Swipe Left and judging from the readings on the console it detects movement but i am unable to replicate any additional swipes granted they are very close to each other and not aligned.
      However do these numbers seem right to you?? judging from this pic that i am attaching …what are these reading in the 3 thousand range?

      Any pointer in the alignment or calibration of the sensors and when i get it to read the swipes left and right correctly does that mean the pages are going to be go left and right also meaning if i swipe from left to right the pages are going to ump one forward and if i swipe from light to left the MM pages are going to go backwards?? that’s our ultimate goal isn’t it

      thanks again
      Denis

      ps. I cant upload a image so here is a text copy of it

      Start: Right
      [MMM-Swipe] Left : [{“dist”:“158”},{“dist”:“3076”},{“dist”:“5593”},{“dist”:“13”},{“dist”:“280”}]
      [MMM-Swipe] Right: [{“dist”:“7”},{“dist”:“3054”},{“dist”:“8”},{“dist”:“165”},{“dist”:“237”}]
      [MMM-Swipe] ----> Swipe Left
      [MMM-Swipe] -------------------------
      [MMM-Swipe] Start: Left
      [MMM-Swipe] Left : [{“dist”:“4”},{“dist”:“2805”},{“dist”:“143”},{“dist”:“7”},{“dist”:“151”}]
      [MMM-Swipe] Right: [{“dist”:“12”},{“dist”:“9”},{“dist”:“12”},{“dist”:“154”},{“dist”:“3”}]
      [MMM-Swipe] -------------------------

    • RE: Further development of the MMM-Swipe module

      @nowis Sorry for the late reply i did figure out the math statistic on my own “…the power of research on the internet” :)
      and also a simple npm install fixes “… the got 53 and expected 48 issue”

      Everything on my end is working nicely i got no errors on my Magic Mirror and i have a lot of modules… however i can’t test the MMM-Swipe …granted it is not installed in the exact position where it is going to ultimately be. Mirror’s Raspi is still on my desk hooked to the monitor, wired though with the sonic sensors… cause i just got done with the programming part and have not started with the physical built of the mirror yet but i had a couple of question regarding the wiring of the two sonic sensors!!

      Are both of the trigger pins for both sensors connected to the same Rpi GPIO?? How can i test if my hand movement can move the pages?? I have tried but nothing happens the module on the software side has no errors but i don’t know if it works!!

      How far apart should the centers of the 2 sensor pairs be from each other ultimately on the mirror frame??

      Any help will be greatly appreciated
      thank you

    • RE: Failure of v2.2.0

      Hi you all i upgraded to V2.2.2 last night and all in all it went good the only initial problem was that it will abort due to local weather changes being not committed but i solved that with “git status” and after that “git reset --hard” on the MagicMirror directory as stated on the github notes.

      When i started the magic mirror however it through “npm start” (i dont use “pm2” ) i got a complete black screen (had to use ctrl-alt-del to kill electron to get out of it as ctrl-q will not do anything) and on the terminal i could see that MMM-Swipe was the culprit i commented out “MMM-Swipe” and the second issue was with “MMM-PIR-sensor” after commenting those 2 out everything else was working perfectly. The error was the same for both modules the expected 50 and got 54 or something to that nature i don’t remember the exact words but i have to re=crash it again when i get home.
      Does any one knows how to get rid of this issue which i am assuming should be easily fixed via commands without going the long route, and the only one i know, of deleting the modules and reinstalling them???
      thank you all any help will be greatly appreciated

    • RE: Further development of the MMM-Swipe module

      @nowis

      Hi there i followed your instructions step by step and got everything installed from your fork for MMM-Swipe, however when i add the MMM-Swipe config parameters to the MM’s config.js file and start the Magic Mirror i get a blank screen and nothing else .
      Only after ctr-alt-del and manually killing the MagicMirror instance (ctrl+q does nothing in this case) i am able to get back to Rpi’s desktop.
      After inspecting the MagicMirror npm start messages i found out that MMM-Swipe and some error with math-statistics module (i do not have a MagicMirror math statistics module) being unavailable that seems to be the culprit of it all, it also seems that the math statistic’s module is a node.js package of MMM-Swipe.
      If i go back to MagicMirrors nonfig.js and comment out the MMM-Swipe module everything works just fine with my MagicMirror … what do you think it is happening??
      Does it have anything to do with maybe the physical sensors?? They are wired just as they are supposed to according to the schematics but maybe they are not working?!?!?!
      I am unable to give it an answer by myself so any help will be greatly appreciated
      Thank you in advance

      @BanksyPaint @j.e.f.f
      Hi there i am having the same exact issue with the MyCommute module.
      It was working fine until i got the notification of the update than no more displaying of my commutes and i see a spike in cpu usage to almost 100% .
      I have cheked my google API key and it is current … i did the git pull commant do update and it did not fix the issue … i npm unistalled it removed it completely went back and git clone again and npm install and still the same issue
      Like i said it was working just fine before and nothing has changed on the MM config file other than adding a couple of new modules.
      What do you think it is happening??
      Any help will be greatly appreciated and it really is a great module
