Description
COMMU is a Muti-Communication-Interface-Converter. Integrated with 2IIC, 1TTL, 1CAN, 1RS485. Apparently COMMU has packed with most of series communications.
Default connection: TTL - UART0, RS485 - UART2. Since ESP32 pin map is allowed for re-assign, you can re-assign or re-mapping the TTL or RS485 interface to other pins.
Product Features
- 2x I2C Interface

- CAN controller: MCP2515-1/SO
- RS485 Transceiver: SP3485EN-L/TR
Kit includes
- 1x M5Stack COMMU Module

Example
These are two COMMU examples for CAN communication, tansmitter and receiver. Press Button A to sent the message, and display the received message on the screen.
Step 1: Copy MCP_CAN_lib file to C:\Users\<user_name>\Documents\Arduino\libraries, Step 2: Open project file commu_can_transmitter.ino, and commu_can_receiver.ino Step 3: Compile and upload the two project to two M5Cores separatly.
