I am new to arduino and trying to have a pir light up 5 led boards and a buzzer

Projects Programming

I can't get the motion sensor to trigger anything continuously. It will either not trigger at all or nonstop whether anyone is in front of it or not.

int Duress1 = 8;
int Fire = 9;
int Duress2 = 10;
int FireSign = 11;
int DuressSign = 12;
int Buzzer = 13;
int Motion = 2;

void setup()
{
pinMode(Duress1, OUTPUT);
pinMode(Fire, OUTPUT);
pinMode(Duress2, OUTPUT);
pinMode(FireSign, OUTPUT);
pinMode(DuressSign, OUTPUT);
pinMode(Buzzer, OUTPUT);

pinMode(Motion, INPUT);
}

void loop(){
//read the pushbutton value into a variable
{ delay(30000); }
int sensorVal = digitalRead(Motion);
if (sensorVal == HIGH) {
// turn LED on:
digitalWrite(Duress1, HIGH);
digitalWrite(DuressSign, HIGH);
digitalWrite(Buzzer, HIGH);
digitalWrite(Fire, LOW);
digitalWrite(Duress2, LOW);
digitalWrite(FireSign, LOW);
} else {
// turn LED off:
digitalWrite(Duress1, LOW);
digitalWrite(DuressSign, LOW);
digitalWrite(Buzzer, LOW);
digitalWrite(Fire, LOW);
digitalWrite(Duress2, LOW);
digitalWrite(FireSign, LOW); }

{ delay(8000); }
{
digitalWrite(Duress1, LOW);
digitalWrite(DuressSign, LOW);
digitalWrite(Buzzer, LOW); }

{ delay(10000); }

if (sensorVal == HIGH) {
// turn LED on:
digitalWrite(Duress1, LOW);
digitalWrite(DuressSign, LOW);
digitalWrite(Buzzer, HIGH);
digitalWrite(Fire, HIGH);
digitalWrite(Duress2, LOW);
digitalWrite(FireSign, HIGH);
} else {
// turn LED off:
digitalWrite(Duress1, LOW);
digitalWrite(DuressSign, LOW);
digitalWrite(Buzzer, LOW);
digitalWrite(Fire, LOW);
digitalWrite(Duress2, LOW);
digitalWrite(FireSign, LOW); }

{ delay(8000); }

{
digitalWrite(Fire, LOW);
digitalWrite(FireSign, LOW);
digitalWrite(Buzzer, LOW); }

{ delay(10000); }

if (sensorVal == HIGH) {
// turn LED on:
digitalWrite(Duress1, LOW);
digitalWrite(DuressSign, HIGH);
digitalWrite(Buzzer, HIGH);
digitalWrite(Fire, LOW);
digitalWrite(Duress2, HIGH);
digitalWrite(FireSign, LOW);
} else {
// turn LED off:
digitalWrite(Duress1, LOW);
digitalWrite(DuressSign, LOW);
digitalWrite(Buzzer, LOW);
digitalWrite(Fire, LOW);
digitalWrite(Duress2, LOW);
digitalWrite(FireSign, LOW); }

{ delay(8000); }

{
digitalWrite(Duress2, LOW);
digitalWrite(DuressSign, LOW);
digitalWrite(Buzzer, LOW); }
{
delay(10000); }}

You need more than one

sensorVal = digitalRead(Motion);

if you want to check the value after your delays

Also, you have about 84 seconds of hard coded delay in each pass of the loop.
(more visible when formatted and in code tags)
