Description
I'm using a rotary encoder based on the KY-040 module, with the Adafruit_BBIO.Encoder.RotaryEncoder
class. I'm running the latest IoT Debian image on a Beaglebone Black:
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 9.2 (stretch)
Release: 9.2
Codename: stretch
$ uname -r
4.4.91-ti-r133
$ python --version
Python 2.7.13
To enable the QEP module on the hardware, I added these lines to /boot/uEnv.txt
as instructed in the Encoder
module source code and rebooted:
cmdline=coherent_pool=1M quiet cape_universal=enable
cape_enable=bone_capemgr.enable_partno=cape-universala
I then configured the equep2
pins on the command line:
$ config-pin P8.11 qep
$ config-pin P8.12 qep
And with these inputs connected to the encoder, I ran this simple code via an SSH connection:
import time
import Adafruit_BBIO.Encoder as Encoder
encoder = Encoder.RotaryEncoder(Encoder.RotaryEncoder.EQEP2)
encoder.setAbsolute()
encoder.zero()
while True:
print("Encoder position: " + encoder.getPosition())
time.sleep(1)
- Expected: the position is printed on screen every second
- Actual: the position is printed on screen every second (yay!), but the output is obscured by a wealth of debug messages.
In summary, I would expect debug info not to be printed on a production library, unless explicitly enabled. Or in other words, can the debug output be turned off by default?
Thanks!
