RE: Adafruit_BBIO and ErrorCodes/Seth

[Mala Dies]

Hello,

I noticed that PWM, P8_13, on the BBBW is having issues with the Adafruit_BBIO framework. I have this software I found within a book I purchased, "Getting Started with BeagleBone" (Richardson 2014). Anyway, The software works without me using PWM but I would like to use PWM to make a LED go bright to dim just by using the web page format found via Flask (a Python Module). The error I incurred while running this software was this and only this: RuntimeError: Problem with a sysfs file.

So, here is the software:

    from flask import Flask, render_template

    app = Flask(__name__)

    import Adafruit_BBIO.GPIO as GPIO

    import Adafruit_BBIO.PWM as PWM

    PWM.start("P8_13", 0.0)

    @app.route("/")

    def hello():

        if GPIO.input(P8_11):

            doorStatus = "open"

        else:

            doorStatus = "closed"

        templateData = {

            'doorStatus': doorStatus,

        }

        return render_template('main-door.html', **templateData)

    

    @app.route('/ledLevel/<level>')

    def pin_state(level):

        PWM.set_duty_cycle("P8_13", float(level))

        return "LED level set to " + "."

    

    if __name__ == "__main__":

        app.run(host='192.168.7.2', port=5000, debug=True) 

So, please give advice or if you are using Adafruit_BBIO, please allow me some "behind-the-scenes" look at the software to change to get things "cracking."

Seth

P.S. I am sure there is a cure. Direct me to the software and I can start on it. I found a link to the sourceforge items and software. Is this where I should begin?

Hi, it looks like you also raised this issue on github:
https://github.com/adafruit/adafruit-beaglebone-io-python/issues/168

I prefer to continue the conversation inside that issue and have replied there.

thanks,
drew

I am not sure that I understand.

Are you referring to issue #168?
