(Moved to the BBB forum)

This tutorial will show you how to set up the Adafruit GPIO Library for the Beaglebone Black: http://learn.adafruit.com/setting-up-io ... bone-black

This tutorial shows you how to use the library to read a pushbutton: http://learn.adafruit.com/connecting-a- ... bone-black , which is roughly similar to reading any other digital signal with the BBB's GPIO pins. From there, Python has built-in functions that will let you mark the time when the pulse went HIGH and then went LOW again.
