Step Action
Place both devices on a flat surface about 25 cm (10”)
apart, and with the IR ports facing each other
On the MCP215X Data Logger Demo Board:
Ensure that jumpers JP1 and JP2 are shorted
(closed position).
On the MCP215X Data Logger Demo Board:
Ensure that jumper JP7 is shorted (closed position).
On the MCP215X Data Logger Demo Board:
Insert the 9V battery into the battery holder (BT1) or
plug a 9V AC to DC power supply (such as those
supplied with some Microchip development tools) into
the 9V DC connection plug (J2).
You may need to depress the RESET switch if the
LCD does not display the Microchip program revision
information and then the directions for demo program
selection.
On the MCP215X Data Logger Demo Board:
Depress Switch 2 (SW2).
On the PDA:
Tap on the MCP215XDemo Icon.
On the PDA:
Tap on the Connect button.
On the MCP215X Data Logger Demo Board:
Switch 2 (SW2) increments the soda counter, and
Switch 3 (SW3) increments the candy counter. The
value of the candy and soda counters will be
displayed on the LCD.
Depress Switch 2 until the soda counter displays 7
and depress Switch 3 until the candy counter displays
12.
For demonstration purposes, it is nice when the two
counter values are different.

2.4.1.2
After saving the AN888 application program to your PC’s hard drive, the PC can com-
municate with the MCP215X Data Logger Demo Board. Section 2.4.1.2.1 “Steps to
Operate the Vending Machine Demo” discusses how to operate the vending
machine program, while Section 2.4.1.2.2 “Steps to Operate the 250-byte S -> P
Data Transfer Demo” discusses how to operate the 250-byte Secondary device (S) to
Primary device (P) data transfer program.
2.4.1.2.1
The vending machine demo is shown by following the steps in Table 2-4.

On the MCP215X Data Logger Demo Board:
The green power LED (D10) will turn on, the DTR
LED will be on, while all the other UART flow control
signals (CTS, RTS, CD, RI and DSR) will be off. Also,
the RD7 and RD6 LEDs will be on.
On the MCP215X Data Logger Demo Board:
This causes the vending machine program to be
executed.
On the PDA:
The screen will display the MCP215XDemo program
window.
On the PDA:
The Connect button will change to the Disconnect
button.
