Lab 4b extends that knowledge by specifying a system that is capable of two independent control and monitoring locations which is common to many industrial applications, such as gantry cranes and processing plants. In this lab, the switches and push buttons on the Basys MX3, as used in lab 2b, will perform the local control functions. The Basys MX3 LCD will be used as the local display. The UART serial connection will provide the basic control and display functionality using a workstation terminal emulator program. +[[/learn/courses/unit-4-lab4a/start|Lab 4a]] introduced the basic concepts of UARTs and asynchronous serial communications.
