I have been using Raspberry Pi’s extensively. I use Piscope to monitor pin states all of the time. I have been searching and even trying to create my own version of Piscope for the Jetson Orin Nano, but no luck so far.
I have done it with Jetson.GPIO in Python, but I need non-exclusive access to the pin states so that other scripts can simultaneously control the pins while I monitor their states. Piscope does this.
Piscope is written in C and we probably need the equivalent for the Jetson platform so that it’s fast enough.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi dan.frist,
Are you using the devkit or custom board for Orin Nano?
What’s your Jetpack version in use?
AFAIK, once the pin is used by one client it can not be used by other client.
Kevin,
I’m using devkit. nvidia-l4t-core 35.4.1-20230801124926
This is a high-level question to raise awareness and seek a creative solution for monitoring pins while developing hardware that triggers the pins.
In my opinion, a solution like Piscope is almost necessary for the industrial automation use of the Jetson.
There is no update from you for a period, assuming this is not an issue any more.
Hence we are closing this topic. If need further support, please open a new one.
Thanks
Could you use scope to monitor the pin state and use Jetson.GPIO to control the pin?
May I know what’s your use case to monitor and control it at the same time?
