RE: Hello and Getting Ideas Ready for Posting/Seth

Hello,

My name is Seth. I am currently wanting to make some posts on the BBB and some sensors/Capes w/ the Python and Adafruit_BBIO. I have been reading some of the books that have been available from other people and I think it is time I post an update to these specific books or make my own additions/changes available in the form of posts or some small works.

First issue:

  • I cannot find out how to get the BBB photo to get it integrated into OrCad or Fritzing.
  • I tried OrCad Lite and the .brd file that is available. There is no photo alongside the .brd file.
  • Also, I tried to find some .pdf files or .svg files for Fritzing to use the “schematic” of the BBB to make small works.
  • Small works would basically be:
  • Connected sensors and related sensors in an easy-to-see fashion.
  • Capes, like the Motor Bridge Cape, working w/ motors and power in an easy-to-understand visual.- So,
  • In hindsight, I would like to see if you know how to accomplish this task.
  • And if so, could you please jump on board and provide some support?
    Seth

P.S. I think this is clear. If it is not that clear and you need extra info, please contact me. Thank you.

Hello,

Sir, I do not know where you got that info. but thank you. It worked like a charm. B/c of my OrCad version (Lite), I cannot handle large files. Anyway, thank you very much.

Hello…when you are right, you are right. I just typed in the same search words. It was second like you stated. I had a bunch of elinux sites but that specific post you showed me was second. Thank you again, sir.

P.S. What have you been doing w/ your BBB lately?
