Oct 01 22:55:59 <ucla_bruins> hey anyone here
Oct 01 22:56:11 <ucla_bruins> i cant download the bone_d64 driver
Oct 01 22:56:16 <ucla_bruins> was looking for some help
Oct 01 23:15:17 <ucla_bruins> kj
Oct 02 01:12:28 <set_> Hello!
Oct 02 01:12:51 <set_> Are there any people in here working with the Motor Bridge Cape and Python for the BBB/BBG?
Oct 02 01:16:56 <set_> Oh and that Grove, OLED display is hard to work with. They have an entire github page dedicated to using it.
Oct 02 01:16:57 <set_> ...
Oct 02 01:47:45 <set_> Okay...forget the Motor Bridge Cape for now.
Oct 02 01:48:14 <set_> Does anyone use PWM on their BBBW from Adafruit_BBIO?
Oct 02 01:53:45 <set_> https://pastebin.com/TfbUYdKa is my software from the book, "Getting Started with BeagleBone."
Oct 02 01:54:30 <set_> I have changed it a bit but it is basically working except for the PWM.start("P8_14", 0.0) part to the software.
Oct 02 01:54:33 <set_> ...
Oct 02 01:54:43 <set_> This is where I am getting an error.
Oct 02 01:55:42 <set_> I change the PWM.start keywords, e.g. PWM.Start or PWM.go. I keep getting more errors. Boo!
Oct 02 01:55:46 <set_> Help if you can.
Oct 02 01:57:45 <set_>     PWM.start("P8_14", 0.0) ValueError: Invalid PWM key or name.
Oct 02 02:18:18 <ee1943> set_: what's the output of: cat /sys/devices/bone_capemgr/slots?
Oct 02 02:18:32 <set_> One moment.
Oct 02 02:18:34 <set_> I will check.
Oct 02 02:18:59 <ee1943> what might be happening is that not all IO ports are enabled with the default cape, since they're configured for the HDMI or something else
Oct 02 02:19:23 <ee1943> so if we figure out what cape you've got enabled, we can figure out if the PWM you're trying to toggle actually works
Oct 02 02:19:30 <ee1943> *is actually available
Oct 02 02:19:43 <set_> Okay...please hold.
Oct 02 02:20:20 <set_> no such file or directory: This is what it says when I run your cmd in the terminal.
Oct 02 02:21:04 <ee1943> ah, the directory layout has been changed recently and I gave you the wrong path
Oct 02 02:21:13 <set_> Oh.
Oct 02 02:21:50 <ee1943> no problem, we can still find it
Oct 02 02:21:54 <set_> I found it.
Oct 02 02:21:57 <set_> Please hold.
Oct 02 02:22:04 <ee1943> run this: find /sys -name slots
Oct 02 02:22:48 <set_> I have it. O: ------ -1
Oct 02 02:23:21 <set_> 1: -----1-- -1 and so on until 3: ---1-- -1
Oct 02 02:23:43 <ee1943> Could you copy the entire output and paste it
Oct 02 02:23:52 <set_> Okay. Please hold.
Oct 02 02:24:07 <set_>  0: ------  -1
Oct 02 02:24:07 <set_>  1: ---l--  -1
Oct 02 02:24:07 <set_>  2: ---l--  -1
Oct 02 02:24:07 <set_>  3: ---l--  -1
Oct 02 02:24:36 <ee1943> alright, looks like there aren't any capes enabled which is a little weird
Oct 02 02:24:49 <set_> Oh. Okay. I will go and enable some capes.
Oct 02 02:24:49 <ee1943> before we enable the right one, could you paste the output of uname -a
Oct 02 02:24:55 <set_> Sure.
Oct 02 02:25:39 <set_> Linux beaglebone 4.9.35-ti-r44 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Jul 1 00:54:33 UTC 2017 armv7l GNU/Linux
Oct 02 02:26:59 <ee1943> alright, give me a moment to figure out what the right cape is
Oct 02 02:27:12 <ee1943> in the meantime, take a look in the book to see if they mention anything about capes
Oct 02 02:27:23 <ee1943> they might have something in there we missed
Oct 02 02:27:40 <set_> What book?
Oct 02 02:27:50 <set_> The book I was referencing?
Oct 02 02:28:02 <ee1943> yep
Oct 02 02:28:31 <ee1943> wait wait wait, hold up
Oct 02 02:28:42 <set_> Notta! No cape info. on this book.
Oct 02 02:29:03 <ee1943> It might be different on the Black wireless, but on the regular black P8_14 isn't a PWM output
Oct 02 02:29:15 <set_> I found this idea: https://github.com/adafruit/adafruit-beaglebone-io-python.
Oct 02 02:29:15 <ee1943> P9_14 is, and P8_13 are, but not P8_14
Oct 02 02:29:24 <set_> Oh.
Oct 02 02:29:29 <ee1943> might just be a typo heh
Oct 02 02:29:35 <set_> I am silly.
Oct 02 02:29:43 <set_> Sure...I think I made a simple mistake.
Oct 02 02:29:50 <ee1943> hahahaha no problem buddy, I've done worse than that
Oct 02 02:30:01 <ee1943> let me know if it works out for you
Oct 02 02:30:07 <set_> Okay. Please hold.
Oct 02 02:32:40 <set_> ee1943: I will be right back.
Oct 02 02:32:49 <ee1943> sure, no problem :)
Oct 02 02:35:59 <set_> ee1943: RuntimeError: Problem with a sysfs file
Oct 02 02:36:47 <ee1943> which PWM did you select, P9_14 or P8_13?
Oct 02 02:37:04 <set_> P8_13
Oct 02 02:38:32 <ee1943> Give P9_14 a shot while I take a look at something
Oct 02 02:39:41 <set_> Okay.
Oct 02 02:45:35 <ee1943> Any luck?
Oct 02 02:45:45 <set_> Just started the machine up.
Oct 02 02:45:51 <set_> Almost done changing the software.
Oct 02 02:47:18 <set_> same...
Oct 02 02:48:01 <set_> Hey ee1943: I am going to take a break. If you come up with something, jump back in. I will ask again soon.
Oct 02 02:48:53 <ee1943> Sure, I'm off to sleep as well (work tomorrow)
Oct 02 02:49:15 <set_> No issue. Thank you.
Oct 02 02:49:25 <ee1943> One last thing I'll suggest is enabling the default cape and trying again
Oct 02 02:49:27 <ee1943> with: sh -c "echo cape-universala > /sys/devices/bone_capemgr/slots"
Oct 02 02:49:42 <ee1943> if not I'll be on tomorrow and I'll take another look if no one else is around
Oct 02 02:49:49 <set_> Okay. That is the cape I have without the comment.
Oct 02 02:49:58 <set_> Okay.
Oct 02 02:49:59 <ee1943> have a pleasant day/night whatever it may be :)
Oct 02 02:50:03 <set_> You too.
Oct 02 02:59:07 <AlejandrRebolled> hi
Oct 02 02:59:17 <AlejandrRebolled> there someone?
