Quick start
This section provides a simple workflow for how to use the CAPSENSE™ Tuner.
Create a CAPSENSE™ application with a Tuner communication interface and program the application into the device. Refer to the
Eclipse IDE for ModusToolbox ™ user guide
and the
CAPSENSE™ Configurator user guide
for more details.
Note:
The simplest way to start with CAPSENSE™ Tuner is to use the
PSOC ™ 6 CAPSENSE™ Buttons and Slider
code example configured to work on PSOC™ 6 MCU kits or
PSOC™ 4 MSC CAPSENSE™ CSD Button Tuning
to work on PSOC™ 4 MCU kits.
Launch the CAPSENSE™ Tuner
.
Start Communication. Click
Connect
and select the required communication interface.
Note:
Refer to the
KitProg user guide
for the supported configurations and modes. For this example, I2C address, sub-address, and speed must match the configuration.
Note:
For the I2C communication, the Tuner only supports the 2-Bytes Sub-address.
