# NOTE:
# There are also 2x potentiometers on the board for adjusting measuring distance and hold time
# Rotate the pot labelled "Delay time" clockwise to decrease the hold time (0.3s - 25s)
# Rotate the pot labelled "Distance" clockwise to decrease the measuring distance (10cm - 6m)
# There are multiple revisions of this board with different components for setting retriggerable/non-retriggerable.
# Revision 1.0 contains a switch and revision 1.2 contains a jumper hat.
# The 1.0 switch board is labelled with H,L - H=retriggerable, L=non-retriggerable.
# The 1.2 jumper board has a pin diagram printed on the back.
# retriggerable means the sensor will continue outputting high if motion was detected before the hold timer expires.
# non-retriggerable means the sensor will output high for the specified hold time only, then output low until motion is detected again.
# if there is constant motion detected, retriggerable will stay high for the duration and non-retriggerable will oscillate between high/low.

# NOTE: Some PIR sensors come with the SIG line connected to the yellow wire and some with the SIG line connected to the white wire.
# If the example does not work on the first run, try changing the pin number
# For example, for port D8, if pin 8 does not work below, change it to pin 7, since each port has 2 digital pins.
# For port 4, this would pin 3 and 4
