The 2nd edition of the Galileo shield report tests various popular Arduino shields running with the Edison (very handy, btw).
One of the items it lists is the Sparkfun Danger shield (item #24). I realize the stock Danger code won't work with the Edison but there's a handy sketch listed that is supposed to work. It compiled fine and loaded. It starts by asking the user to press "Button 1 (D10)" to cycle through the tests. The output serial port prints out the startup strings so I know the sketch is running. But when I press the button nothing happens. So I over-rode the button press and tried all the individual tests (buttons, sliders, temperature sensor, light sensor, LEDs, buzzer, seven-segment display) and none of them worked.
Has anyone tried to get the Danger shield working? I verified that the shield itself was working with an Arduino Uno so I know it's not the hardware.
The goal is to send the data from the Danger shield across a pair of XBees from the Edison/Arduino to an Edison/mini-breakout board and have it display the IO values there. But starting with baby-steps...
Any suggestions appreciated.
