I have two questions regarding the i2c library:

1. i2c_read - it works in a different manner you would normally operate an i2c bus. It just reads all of the registers of the i2c device that's connected currently, instead of sending a request for data from a specific register. This makes you use a huge buffer for i2c data to scan through all the data instead of getting specific values you need. Is there a workaround?

2. What's the frequency that the bus operates with?

Greg

Hi Greg,

Have you looked into the code?

https://sourceforge.net/p/octave/instrument-control/ci/default/tree/src/i2c/

Maybe you can identify the problem. I will be happy to be your interlocutor (though at the time I can't promise to be a coding companion)

At least, if you have some examples it would be nice to add them ere, commenting on this limitation you found
