pingRead() not available on IntelEdison #1160

The pingRead() method is not available when using an Intel Edison.

Object #<Galileo> has no method 'pingRead'

As you can see ping is not supported by the edison ;).

Thanks for the report! As @wicktus noted, there is no support for the pingRead method on Intel Edison—nor can there be, as it's timing requirements cannot be met.

If you can, I recommend using the "backpack" approach: http://johnny-five.io/examples/proximity-hcsr04-i2c/
