====== Description ======
[https://kamami.pl/en/moduly-rozszerzajace-do-raspberry-pi/581674-nakladka-do-raspberry-pi-z-can-oraz-rs485.html KAmodRPi RS485 CAN HAT] is an extension for the Raspberry Pi computer extending its interfaces with RS485 and CAN. The board is equipped with MCP2515 and MCP2551 systems to support the CAN bus, while the conversion of the signal to the levels corresponding to the RS485 bus is the ST3485 system. It allows communication of Raspberry computers with buses used, for example, in automation and vehicles.

===== Raspberry Pi Configuration =====
To use this hat, you need to properly configure the Raspberry Pi (e.g. by the sudo raspi-config command):
* In order to use the RS485 bus, UART must be turned on with the indication that the system shell should be turned off
* To use the CAN bus, you must enable SPI and add the following line in the config.txt file:

===== Selecting the operating mode =====
The KAmodRPi RS485 CAN HAT module is equipped with a system that automatically detects the transmission direction. This system, however, is not active; the transmission direction is selected by the GPIO 4 pin state of the Raspberry Pi. In order to save this output, it is possible to switch on the above-mentioned system:
* The jumpers soldered in the DIR CTRL fields (default configuration) mean manual selection of the transmission direction
* Jumpers soldered in AUTO fields mean automatic detection of the transmission direction

===== Terminating resistors =====
The module is equipped with terminating resistors for both CAN and RS485 buses. These resistors can be disconnected using the following jumpers:

===== Additional connector =====
The module has been equipped with an additional connector that allows it to be connected to computers other than those equipped with a 40-pin connector of the Raspberry standard. The pins of the connector are described on the bottom side of the board.
