| When the THE MOST COMMONLY ASKED I2C QUESTIONS | ||||
| General Questions | ||||
Question | I get corrupted transfers why is this? | ||||
Answer | The most likely reason for corrupted transfers is either incorrect bus termination or | ||||
| excessive capacitance - see the manual for details. | ||||
Question | Do you have software to talk to my........? | ||||
Answer | Unfortunately there are too many I2C devices for us to be able to offer complete | ||||
| solutions - although we can supply a windows based application called WINI2C which is | ||||
| designed for those just starting I2C or wishing to perform simple I2C tasks, please | ||||
| contact our sales team or look on our web site, www.calibreuk.com for further | ||||
| information. | ||||
Question | I am trying to read from a device, the first time my software works fine but when I | ||||
| try again I can't get anything what's wrong? | ||||
Answer | Please check that you are changing the value of Setnack in accordance with the | ||||
| manual, it is likely that you have not made Setnack 1 for the last byte being read. | ||||
| Windows Questions | ||||
Question | I have read the manual and still cannot get the communications to run. What do I | ||||
| do next? | ||||
Answer | Check that you have fully implemented the protocol between the Adapter and the other | ||||
| I2C devices see the device manufacturers data sheet for details. | ||||
| Check that the software you have written is logically and syntactically correct - this is | ||||
| probably the most common cause of software faults we have to deal with. | ||||
Send us the following details:-
1)The link settings of the Adapter.
