This test receives and echo-backs data through the UARTA port.
A terminal such as 'putty' can be used to view the data from the UART and to send information to the UART. Characters received by the UART port are sent back to the host.
Running the Application Open a COM port with the following settings using a terminal:
The program will print out a greeting and then ask you to enter a character which it will echo back to the terminal.
Watch Variables
External Connections
Connect the UARTA port to a PC via a transceiver and cable.
The pin muxing for the UARTA port needs to be done by the master CPU1. The common configuration example provided in the C28x folder can be used for assigning appropriate GPIO pins for UART RX and TX.
