# Manual bring-up — Coprocessor
Sets the bus clock from the application (no auto-init): start the link at one clock,
then stop it and start it again at another. All of it is in `main.c`; Wi-Fi, BLE and
a link monitor are optional extras in their own files.
Use it when the application, not menuconfig, decides the bus settings (for example
from a board ID or NVS), or when you want to control when Wi-Fi and BLE start.
### Changing the bus settings

```
```c
struct esp_hosted_sdio_config cfg = INIT_DEFAULT_HOST_SDIO_CONFIG();
cfg.clock_freq_khz = 40000;
esp_hosted_sdio_set_config(&cfg); // before esp_hosted_init(), or after esp_hosted_deinit()
esp_hosted_init();
esp_hosted_connect_to_slave(); // log: bus applied: clk_khz=40000
```
- Settings can change only while the link is down. While it is up, `set_config`
returns `ESP_TRANSPORT_ERR_ALREADY_SET`.
- Without `set_config`, the menuconfig values are used.
- The same works for SPI, SPI half duplex and UART (`esp_hosted_spi_set_config()`,
`esp_hosted_spi_hd_set_config()`, `esp_hosted_uart_set_config()`).

Select the transport:
```bash
cd examples/system/mcu_transport_config/cp
idf.py set-target esp32c6
idf.py menuconfig
```
```text
Component config
└── ESP-Hosted
└── Configure coprocessor
└── CP transport
└── Communication bus (co-processor <== bus ==> host)
├── ( ) SPI Full Duplex
├── (X) SDIO <── default
├── ( ) SPI Half Duplex
└── ( ) UART
```
Pre-set in `sdkconfig.defaults` (do not remove): Wi-Fi and the BLE controller, so the
host can use both.
Then flash and monitor:
```bash
idf.py -p <cp_usb_serial_port> flash monitor
```
