Thanks, William. Yeah, I saw that post. I've also emailed them for support. I could try to fix it myself, but despite much time invested, I just don't "get" DTBs (and I've written a lot of code on a lot of different platforms, and designed and built boards around a lot of different MCUs). Their DTB source doesn't seem to be available (I've asked for that, too), so I'd have to make one from scratch.
They don't have a proper schematic that I can find, but they do show the GPIO and ADC pins used (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XQtcoCa3WckPbJZpxYE6ueTVv-GCCfnqHIo7_dZ5UUs/edit, page 4). This might be a good Cape for me to finally learn how to write an overlay, but I feel completely helpless and don't even know where to begin. > On Aug 2, 2015, at 12:43 , William Hermans <[email protected]> wrote: > > Rick, have you read this yet ? > http://inspire.logicsupply.com/2014/06/relay-cape.html > > Particularly the comments.
