Description
I wrote a few lines of code from the example https://learn.adafruit.com/setting-up-io-python-library-on-beaglebone-black/pwm
and I got a runtime error when I ran it. See attached pictures for reference.
I named the PWM pin "P9_14" and it should work according to the example but doesn't. Any help is appriciated.
By the way I am using a sancloud

Research direction
Start with the linked Adafruit PWM example and compare its use of pin P9_14 with the code shown in the attached pictures. Reproduce the runtime error on the reported SanCloud hardware; the issue is resolved when the cause of the unknown runtime error and a working PWM setup are documented.
