Question

I am using your Windows 95 / NT DLL and I am always getting a time out error
code. Why?

Answer

Check the Syntax of the setup function, swapping the Status Wait and Sclk parameters
most usually causes this problem.
The correct syntax is i2cstatus = setup (baseaddress, ownaddress, sclk, statuswait)

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.

2)

A sketch of the relevant I2C hardware including the location of bus termination.

3)

The type and speed of processor within your PC and which operating system,
you are running.

4)

Brief software listings, or which Calibre software you are running.

5)

The serial number of your I2C adapter, or when you purchased it.
