+CAN Example
+
+This example application utilizes CAN to send characters back and forth
+between two boards. It uses the UART to read / write the characters to
+the UART terminal. It also uses the graphical display on the board to show
+the last character transmited / received. Error handling is also included.
+
+CAN HARDWARE SETUP:
+
+To use this example you will need to hook up two DK-TM4C123G boards
+together in a CAN network. This involves hooking the CANH screw terminals
+together and the CANL terminals together. In addition 120ohm termination
+resistors will need to be added to the edges of the network between CANH
+and CANL. In the two board setup this means hooking a 120 ohm resistor
+between CANH and CANL on both boards.
+
+See diagram below for visual. '---' represents wire.
+
+ CANH--+--------------------------+--CANH
+ | |
+ .-. .-.
+ | |120ohm | |120ohm
+ | | | |
+ '-' '-'
+ | |
+ CANL--+--------------------------+--CANL
+
+SOFTWARE SETUP:
+
+Once the hardware connections are setup connect both boards to the computer
+via the In-Circuit Debug Interface USB port next to the graphical display.
+Attach a UART terminal to each board configured 115,200 baud, 8-n-1 mode.
+
+Anything you type into one terminal will show up in the other terminal and
+vice versa. The last character sent / received will also be displayed on
+the graphical display on the board.
