 Measurement of the pins is meaningless without knowing that /direction
and /value were set properly. The default state seems to be INput with the
pin pulled down to ground (value shows 0).

 And /that/ requires being able to control things from the command line.
Until you can successfully set /direction to out, and /value to 1, the pin
voltage is expected to be near ground (except for the two pins that are
pulled high)
