Hi. Very happy with the EKMC4607112K PIR to modulate RFID antenna to full power only when there are racers detected. Issue is I have to account for very infrequent restarts of the py program to clear certain error conditions. When that happens, the 30 secs wait kicks in although it’s only necessary when power is first applied. What would happen if I remove the stabilization wait completely? If it’s really needed, how to put the delay at power up, not in my program?
The stabilization period is meant to allow the board’s components to warm-up to operating temperature (gives more reliable data)…if you’re resetting an already running device, it should already be at operating temperature so I don’t see much of a problem with removing it in your case.
Edit the code to take out that waiting period and just know that if you turn the PIR off for more than a few seconds you might need to have a ‘default’ backup code that uses the delay
