Pair the module
5. Pairing the PIR Module
To connect the PIR module, you must first put it into Bluetooth pairing mode. This mode is activated by inserting batteries into the module.
Before inserting the batteries, go to Hardwario Playground and click the Start pairing button. This step will start the pairing process.
If you are pairing in a classroom with multiple modules, make sure you are pairing the correct one. For example, verify that no other devices are in the pairing process at the same time.
After inserting the batteries, a sensor will appear in Hardwario Playground, usually identified as motion-detector:0. Once this sensor appears, it means the module is connected.
In the left menu, under the Messages section, you can monitor outputs from the PIR module, which will show you whether the sensor detects motion.
Rotate the PIR module on its side. In the Messages section, you should see an item like node/motion-detector:0/orientation (with a number), which indicates the change in module orientation.
