Sending data from PC to startKIT during runtime
Posted: Sat Mar 12, 2016 3:40 pm
Hello,
I would like to make an application that outputs a clock signal through one of the ports of the startKIT. The frequency and phase and various other properties should be determined by data sent from the computer the startKIT is connected to. I would like to be able to send this data during runtime so I can change these properties on the fly. What ways are there for doing this?
The data can be in several forms but I am currently thinking of reading a text file on the computer as that is the medium that is most convenient for me (currently I am hardcoding data into the program before compiling).
Once this works I would like to scale this upto around 40 startKITs all connected to one computer and receiving different data at the same time.
I am new to embedded programming so please bear with me.
Thanks
