@mvader Turn the time delay adjustment preset on your PIR module to the minimum.. Now try it.. You will not get a continuous output..Also, prepare the circuit using a long wire from the back to the sensor of your module.
@Eme
Thank you for coming back to report how you solved your problem! Your comments will help other people.
I am a big fan of Frugal Tech and I think MySensors is great for that.
Alas, MySensors is not well supported anymore. Right now I'm having problems linking to the home page It's people like you and me that will keep MySensors going.
Thanks for your help.

@tnick STM32F1 2019.12.8 (stm32duino) is the version that was active when the latest MySensors release was made. Later versions may or may not work; nobody would know until they tried.
I want to thank @FcNanoLed. I had long thought about a serial gateway. This would be a way to add I/O to a linux computer. In the process of trying to help, I built up a linux machine running virtual box. In the virtual machine I ran Home Assistant The not well documented part of that was to connect the USB port of the computer to the virtual machine (settings-->USB-->USB Device Filters) (note that one can buy a refurbished PC for about the same price as an equivalently configured RPi)
So thanks for the inspiration!
