Setup

1. Connect the PIC32AK1216GC41064 Curiosity GP DIM to the Curiosity Platform Development Board
2. Connect the USB-C port to a host computer
3. Compile and program the demo into the board
4. Open a serial terminal program to 9600 8-N-1 to the port associated with the board

Operation

After completing the board setup in the prior section, you may interact with the board in the following ways:

Basic I/O

• LED7 reflects the status of the S1 button; On when pressed, off when released.
• LED6 reflects the status of the S2 button; On when pressed, off when released.
• LED5 reflects the status of the S3 button; On when pressed, off when released.

ADC/PWM

• Turning the potentiometer will vary the RGB LED brightness

UART

• Sending the ASCII characters 'r'(0x72), 'g'(0x67), or 'b'(0x62) over the UART (9600 8-N-1) will toggle the red/green/blue LEDs of the RGB LED respectively.
• A terminal program can be used to view the potentiometer value over the UART.

Unsupported Board Features

• This DIM does not support CAN functionality
• This DIM does not support the capacitive touch portion of the demo described in the Curiosity Platform Board user's guide.

Factory Hex Files

The factory production .hex file is provided in this distribution. The factory .hex file is often generated from pre-release version of tools so compiling the source with released version of tools may result in a different .hex file. The factory .hex file is generated from the 1.0.0 version of the demo.
