@uros76 I am using a 3B+ and I have tried the MMM-NewPIR module and it appears to behave the same with my monitor. As soon as I turn off the HDMI port via the PIR module I get “No Signal”

@lavolp3 the real issue here is, can I blank and restore the MagicMirror modules using the PIR module in MM2?

Would either of these two options work from within the PIR module?

I keep trying to find a hide or show all(modules) command that I could trigger from within the PIR module similar to the “powerSaving” command that turns off the HDMI port but unfortunately causes the “no Signal” message to appear.

Thanks Again

@lavolp3 Thanks, I hope you come up with something. As I said the frame is functioning perfectly except for the “no signal” problem. The MMM-Remote-Control module is tempting but I was not able to figure out how to “hide” everything when the PIR sensor triggered.

@steverichab Wow Serg, My head exploded while trying to get the the MMM-Remote-Control module to “hide” just the calendar module when triggered by the MMM-PIRSensor module. Could you show or point me to an example of these two modules getting rid of this “no signal” problem.
Thanks!

@Serge said in "No Signal" message when PIR sensor is triggered:

mmm-remotecontrol

Thank You Serge, not sure how to hide when the PIR sensor module is triggered. I will start to work on it.

Thanks Sam, As you can tell I’m a newbie but I really appreciate the coaching!

Is there a way to simple trigger a black screen saver via the PIRSensor module? really anything but a blue “No Signal” message.

The MMM-PIRSensor is working perfectly. Unfortunately when the sensor times out due to no presents detected I get a blue screen with “No Signal” on my monitor/screen. Here’s my config:

 {
		module: 'MMM-PIR-Sensor', 
		position: "top_center", // Remove this line to avoid having an visible indicator
		config: {
			sensorPin: 22,
			powerSaving: true,
			powerSavingDelay: 10, // Turn HDMI OFF after 60 seconds of no motion, until motion is detected again
			preventHDMITimeout: 1, // Turn HDMI ON and OFF again every 4 minutes when power saving, to avoid LCD/TV timeout
			supportCEC: true, 
			presenceIndicator: "fa-eye", // Customizing the indicator
			presenceOffIndicator: "fa-eye", // Customizing the indicator
			presenceIndicatorColor: "#f51d16", // Customizing the indicator
			presenceOffIndicatorColor: "#2b271c" // Customizing the indicator
		}
		},

I have enabled HDMI CEC on my monitor. I just want it to go dark. any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!!

Hello,
I understand that this module currently has no one supporting it but this is a general question concerning this module(I am a total new bee)
Here is my entry into config.js and everything works fine except I see no entry from MMM-CalendarExt2. Can anyone tell me what I’m doing wrong ? The default calendar works fine with these google calendars.

{
  module: 'MMM-CalendarExt2',
  position: "top_left",
  rotateInterval: 1000*60,
  config: {
    calendars : [
      {
        url:"webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calendar/ics/76/US_Holidays.ics",
      },
    ],
views: [
          { 
            name: "view1",
            mode: "month",
            slotCount: "7",
            maxItems: "1000",
            hideOverflow: false,
            slotMaxHeight: "95px",
            monthFormat: "MMMM YYYY",
            position: "top_left",
            calendars: []
          },
        ],
    scenes: [
      {
        name: "DEFAULT",
      },
    ],
  },
},

Thank you sdetweil!
I think I will begin the project and my education on MM if MMM_CalendarExt2 is the ‘best’ for a full screen calendar is the is there an alternative if I can’t quit cut it with the ‘best’.
Best regards

Hello, I have just discovered MMM and I am considering a calendar project. My question is very basic but I guess I have to start somewhere. I would like to have a slideshow from a google photo album playing in the background and a full screen 30-45 day google calendar & weather “semi transparent” in the foreground. I have a 19" monitor in portrait orientation. I believe from the literature this is doable but I wanted to confirm before getting stuck into this project.
Thanks in advance !
