Problem installing ON/OFF SHIM (Pimoroni)

I tried to install a hardware switch (ON/OFF ShHIM from Pimoroni). It needs to run an install script:

curl https://get.pimoroni.com/onoffshim | bash

When I trie that, it does not install the script but tells me something else:

"Running as root, please log in as a regular user with sudo rights!"

I do not understand, does that mean that a nromal user using "su" can do more than root? What is it that I need to do to install the script?

Thanks in advance for the help, kindest regards, Stefan

This way can realize the shutdown state, click the button to start it?
