PIR Motion Sensor

@dronebot-workshop

I guess the "I" and "L" modes are the same. Forgive me for this, but your reply is contradicting with your video. I want to make my project using the so-called "H" mode, mentioned in the video. The light should stay on, until I stop moving.

Hope you will understand my problem 🙂

Thanks. 🙂 Can you tell me which mode is appropriate for my project? Because in different sites, the definition of the modes is different. That's why I am confused. I want the LED to be lit, until motion continues. Mr. Bill says that I need the "I" mode. For setting the sensor to this mode, what should be the setting of the jumper? It should be placed on which 2 pins? The upper 2 or the lower 2?

Thanks in advance 😀 

According to the datasheet and my interpretation of it, the jumper has to be across the common pin and the "H" pin.  You're confused because you're not understanding the blocking and reset intervals of the device.  As for when your LED is on or off, that's got nothing to do with the device... that depends on your circuit design.

Please read the datasheet carefully, it's all there 🙂

@frogandtoad

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking the same thing, about the position of jumper.

@frogandtoad

Er.... I don't know if you have felt it or not, but the datasheet is written in broken English. So I am struggling to grasp the real meaning of it.

I just clicked on the attachment I provided, and downloaded it, and it reads fine to me?

@frogandtoad

Okay. That's fine. I was just telling about my problem.

@dronebot-workshop

Plus @frogandtoad is also suggesting me to use the "H" mode for my project. Please help me.🙏

@frogandtoad

Yes, that is right, I pasted it from a website. Having found errors on other instances, I agree with you that datasheets should be trusted more than anything else.

Noted. Thanks mate.
