I am using BBB with Angstrom, I wish to capture pulse from RC Remote and measure its pulse width.
I would be grateful if someone could help me how to initiate timer

Re: Help with Pulse Capture on Beaglebone Black
(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.
