GPIO pins are not outputting voltage Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit

Hello all!

I am trying to get my Jetson nano gpio pins to trigger 4 solenoids via a relay board. I need the pins to output 3.3 volts but its currently not doing that.

My Jeston has Jetpack 6.1 installed. Do i need to do something to get the pins to output a voltage?

Let me know what additional info i should/need to provide!

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to go about fixing this? Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you!

^Here is my code

hello nic.burger,

may I know which GPIO pin you’re used, and, did you confirm it’s toggling high?

I have tired using pins 7, 11, 12,13. i connected my multimeter to them and a ground pin and non of the pins were toggling high even though my code was printing that thet were. Do you recomend other pins? i am not set on these ones. Do i need to activate them to give an output voltge?

hello nic.burger,

since it’s Orin Nano developer kit, you may try using Jetson-IO to configure the pin.
please refer to developer guide, Configuring the Jetson Expansion Headers.
