This more than likely is a software issue. So, it sounds like there is some
sort of software requirement, but I'd very
I understand that. I'm just trying to work through the issues we're seeing,
and find a way forward for us. It's a trial-and-error process. I chose the
BBB initially because it's a great design that meets a lot of our needs,
known and potential. To go with another design would likely involve
At this point all I can say is that I did not design these boards for your
application and therefore I cannot guarantee that it will do what you need
it to do.
>From what little you have said about your application, it sounds like
industrial versions would be preferable.
I would need to see a
In our lab we have 8-9 Beaglebone Black units. We are using them to control
high intensity lights, with circuits in the 7A/9V neighborhood. The
circuits are simple, using mosfets to control the high power circuits.
There is water in our environment but we protect our electronics pretty
well,
