B4R Question nodeMCU and hc-sr505 mini PIR

[giggetto71]

Hi guys,
I am trying to get the HC-sr505 sensor working with nodeMCU but I get aways the same value logged from the sensor, I always get "1". I have tried both pin D1 and D2.
Any idea?

The HC-sr505 Sensor has an operating voltage range: DC 4.5-20V and your ESP works with 3.3 V. Have you considered this.
For your prototyping and first testing, disable Wi-Fi on your ESP and work only with the Log
function. There are interference problems between ESP Wi-Fi and HC-sr505. For good result
always use a metall case for the sensor. Check also if you need the pull up resistor for the port.

thanks....I didn't check that before..my bad, thanks!
