Thanks for the reply, Sorry from the post I thought the issue was just with 
the battery monitor code knocking out the Wireless and when I looked at the 
updated source code looked like that module was disabled if not Beagle Bone 
Black. I am not using his cape just trying to use his libraries. We already 
have a bunch of robotics chassis but with large motors that can draw as 
high as 6 amps so can't use BB Blue as PWM pins don't come out to pins.  We 
already have 6 BBGW and drew up an expanded Grove Cape that brought out all 
the Robotics Cape Pins added servo pins etc into groups to go to our motor 
controllers etc.

So if I want to move forward using the Robotics Cape Code Base will it just 
be avoiding this one conflict pin or is there a lot of pins. In my case I 
have no battery monitor as not using his cape so easy enough to roll my own 
overlay and avoid this pin.

Any other gothcha's between the Beagle Bone Green Wireless and the Robotics 
Capes that you know of?

Thanks for the Help as always.

Andy
