Multiple instance of RPMsg
##########################
Overview
********
Multiple instance of RPMsg is an abstraction created over OpenAMP.
It simplifies the initialization and endpoint creation process.
This sample demonstrates how to use multi-instance RPMsg in Zephyr.
Building the application for nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp
*****************************************************
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/subsys/ipc/rpmsg_multi_instance
:board: nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp
:goals: debug
Open a serial terminal (for example Minicom or PuTTY) and connect the board with the following settings:
- Speed: 115200
- Data: 8 bits
- Parity: None
- Stop bits: 1
When you reset the development kit, the following messages (one for master and one for remote) will appear on the corresponding serial ports:
.. code-block:: console

Open a serial terminal (for example Minicom or PuTTY) and connect to the board
with the following settings on both serial ports:
- Speed: 115200
- Data: 8 bits
- Parity: None
- Stop bits: 1
When you reset the development kit after having flashed both the application
and network core images, the following messages (one for master and one for
remote) will appear on the corresponding serial ports:
