Screen off with ext-pir applied

ain

According to the ext-pir and screen documentation, I think I can apply this to make a system that turns on when something is detected by the pir via pir sensor mode. I have authorized mode 6, but it does not go to sleep when it is not detected, and vice versa.

  module: 'EXT-Screen',
  position: 'top_left',
  config: {
    autoDimmer: true,
    delay: 2 * 60 * 10,
    mode: 6,
    gpio: 20,
    clearGpioValue: true,
    ON: [
  {
    dayOfWeek: [0,1,2,3,4,5,6],
    hour: 00,
    minute: 00
  }
],
    OFF: [
  {
    dayOfWeek: [0,1,2,3,4,5,6],
    hour: 00,
    minute: 00
  }
]
  }
},
  module: 'EXT-Pir',
  config: {
    debug: false,
    gpio: 2,
    reverseValue: false
  }
},

These images don’t come up either

HI,

what’s happening is you’re breaking the rules with ON/OFF
actually you are asking to turn it on and off at the same time
If you use a pir sensor with EXT-Pir
Best way is not using ON/OFF
Why? just because it’s EXT-Pir Job
ON/OFF feature is only used if you don’t have a pir sensor
So… just delete ON:[] and OFF:[] feature and it will works like you want

I modified the code according to your advice, but it still doesn’t work

{
  module: 'EXT-Pir',
  config: {
    debug: true,
    gpio: 20,
    reverseValue: false
  }
},
{
  module: 'EXT-Screen',
  position: 'top_left',
  config: {
    delay: 2 * 60 * 1000
  }
},

I changed it to the default format only, and I think that ext-pir sends a wakeup alarm, so I don’t need to turn it on or off. However, even though I opened a new pir sensor and checked the GPIO settings, the screen does not show the sleep mode or timer picture.

Here’s what it looks like, the non-English ones are my local settings

Don’t forget this rule:

An EXT plug-in is not a module.
You can’t use it without MMM-GoogleAssistant and Gateway

So… Do you use it?

ain

Yes I use gateway and I also use mmm - google assistant but as per your advice I just updated node.js to version 20.04 and then I tried reinstalling gateway,assistant and mirror with npm rebulid command and now it works! Maybe the mirror was not working because it was a lower version that I installed a few months ago.
Thanks for your help in checking my mistake

Sure all have to be up to date because I change some internal API(Assistant, Gateway and EXTs a few month ago)

If works, it’s perfect
