Can't Receive Data from RoboClaw Encoders While Using Python Code In Raspberry Pi 3

We are working on a project that uses 2x15A Roboclaw Motor drivers. We are trying to extract the encoder value from roboclaw while using a Raspberry Pi 3.

The python code always prints the values of encoders as [0, 0] whatever we try. Rewiring also didn't work. We are able to see data when using basicmicro motion studio tool to access the roboclaw product directly from a computer. But we can not get a reading while using python code and Roboclaw library. Python code we use is from basicmicro's "Using RoboClaw Encoders" tutorial. We are also not receiving any errors in python, the code is able to utilize the motors with the same python code but not capable getting any data feedback from the encoders, all the returned values from the encoders are (0,0). Example of the code can be seen Below:

from roboclaw import Roboclaw
from time import sleep

roboclaw = Roboclaw("/dev/ttyS0", 38400)
roboclaw.Open()


motor_1_count = roboclaw.ReadEncM1(0x80)
print "Original:"
print motor_1_count

sleep(2)

roboclaw.SetEncM1(0x80, 10000)
motor_1_count = roboclaw.ReadEncM1(0x80)
print "After setting count:"
print motor_1_count

sleep(2)

roboclaw.ResetEncoders(0x80)
motor_1_count = roboclaw.ReadEncM1(0x80)
print "After resetting:"
print motor_1_count

sleep(2)

roboclaw.SpeedAccelDeccelPositionM1(0x80,10000,2000,10000,15000,1)

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
