4. Perform these steps, if you are using another set of CY8CKIT-044 and CY8CKIT-026 for
receiving the data:
a. Program the second baseboard with the
CAN_Simplex_Rx_CY8CKIT-044.hex file
and set the
hardware connections provided in
Hardware Connections on page 41
b. Connect both the Shield Kits with a DB9 male-to-male connector, as shown in
and
switch ON the power supply for both the kits.
c. Touch the CapSense gesture pad buttons on the first baseboard (that is programmed with
CAN_Simplex_Tx_CY8CKIT-044 project). Observe the Color and Brightness of the RGB LED
on the second board, as provided in
.
5. To observe the data that is transmitted through CAN bus using UART, connect the baseboard to
a PC using a USB cable, and then perform these steps:
a. Open any serial terminal software (Tera Term software is shown here as an example).
b. After selecting appropriate COM port (For example COM37 in
), set the Baud rate
to 115200, Parity = none, Stop bit = 1, as shown in
