Please post the output of the following commands:

Code:

cat /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/model

Code:

cat /proc/cpuinfo

Code:

cat /etc/os-release

Code:

uname -a

Code:

gpio -v

Code:

pip show rpi.gpio

@fredebec what you are describing is very similar to the behavior of the old firmware. Reading a port used turn it off. Can you please report the version that is running on your Pi? The version is in the first lines that EZBPi.exe prints to the console when you run it.

@amin, I have the last version. The first line says: "Raspberry EZBPi Version: 2019.8.27.1"

@ptp, here we go:

@fredebec I did more tests and couldn't reproduce this issue even after updating my rpi.gpio package to match yours. Can you please run EZBPi in verbose (with --verbose) and try to set the port and copy paste whatever is printed on EZBPi console?

@amin, I am afraid that it is not so verbose...

Here is what happens if I set the port on & off and disconnect

Code:

pi@fredebec-pi:~/EZBPi $ sudo mono ./EZBPi.exe -verbose

Here is what happens if I do the same but with the "read digital" control

Code:

EZB disconnected on tty:1

Also, I don't know if it is off any help, but when I run the EZBPi server, I can still run the Pi commands

Code:

pi@fredebec-pi:~ $ echo "18" > /sys/class/gpio/export
pi@fredebec-pi:~ $ echo "out" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio18/direction
pi@fredebec-pi:~ $ echo "1" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio18/value
pi@fredebec-pi:~ $ echo "0" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio18/value

and successfully switch on the led, without any interference or impact on the EZBPi server or EZ-Builder...
