ZX-24 to ZX-24 Network

Post by sturgessb »

Hi Guys

Can someone help me with networking two zx-24n via something fast like I2C or SPI. Is this even possible, to set up a zx as a slave?

I just want to be able so send a few variables back and forth.

Anyone done this, and has sample code and schematics?

Many thanks

Ben

Slave mode can be implemented for I2C and SPI but only on native mode devices (because it is necessary to use an interrupt handler). We've done both here and we'll be publishing an application note on the topic shortly.
