To perform a demonstration of the MCP215X/40 Developer’s Daughter Board, two
systems are needed. A Primary Device and a Secondary Device (the embedded
system).
The embedded system (Secondary Device) is a MCP215X/40 Developer’s Daughter
Board (MCP212XEV-DB) plus the PICDEM HPC Explorer Demo Board (DM183022).
The Primary Device is either a PC with IR Port (or IR Dongle) or a PDA.
There are four presentations of running the demos. These are:
1. PC Demos using HyperTerminal.
2. Palm PDA Demo using the AN888 Application Program.
3. Pocket PC PDA Demo using the AN926 Application Program.
4. Window XP PC with an IrDA Standard Port Demo using the AN941 Application
The PC Demos using HyperTerminal shows all three PICDEM HPC Explorer Demo
Board program modes, while those using the Application Note programs only show the
Data Logger (250 Byte) program mode. The steps to configure HyperTerminal is shown
in Appendix F. “Configuring the HyperTerminal
