Property reference

Address

This property is of type Unsigned integer and can be referenced with the variable name Address.

No additional information


Channel

This property is of type Fixed list of ints and can be referenced with the variable name cal_i2c1::CHANNEL.

Channel selection

SDA

This property is of type Single digital pin and can be referenced with the variable name cal_i2c1::SDA.

Pin used for SDA (data signal)

SDA Remap Pin

This property is of type Fixed list of ints and can be referenced with the variable name cal_i2c1::SDAPins.

No additional information


SCL

This property is of type Single digital pin and can be referenced with the variable name cal_i2c1::SCL.

Pin used for SCL (clock signal)

SCL Remap Pin

This property is of type Fixed list of ints and can be referenced with the variable name cal_i2c1::SCLPins.

No additional information


Baud Select

This property is of type Fixed list of ints and can be referenced with the variable name cal_i2c1::BAUD_LIST.

Baud rate option selector

Baud Rate

This property is of type Signed integer and can be referenced with the variable name cal_i2c1::BAUD.

Baud rate to be used

Stop Delay

This property is of type True or false and can be referenced with the variable name cal_i2c1::StopDel.

On older microcontroller devices there is a potential for the I2C hardware channel to lock up if there is not

a 10ms delay between an I2C stop event and the next I2C start event.


Most modern microcontrollers will not have a problem so this property can be disabled to speed up the

I2C communications.

Scope Traces

This property is of type True or false and can be referenced with the variable name cal_i2c1::ScopeTraces.

Selects if the scope traces are automatically generated or not

Console Data

This property is of type True or false and can be referenced with the variable name cal_i2c1::ConsoleData.

Selects if the console data is automatically generated or not

Injector

This property is of type Fixed list of ints and can be referenced with the variable name cal_i2c1::Injector.
