    Can you provide a link to the specific senor that you're talking about? There are lots of IR sensors out there.

    Hello salwa,

    I think you meant a PIR sensor ?

    here is code for an PIR Sensor in the obex

    by googling I found this document PIR Manual

    best regards

    Actually a PIR and pyroelectric sensor are not the exact same thing. A PIR sensor uses a pyroelectric sensor, but adds additional intelligence to make the interface simpler. Salwa, have you done a google search on the sensor? Theres a wealth of information out there.
