2.8.4 IIC object method: sendbyte(byte)
Sends a byte to the IIC bus previously created. Input parameter byte is a Python byte which is the byte
to be sent to the IIC bus. The start and stop condition on the bus are added by the function.
Return value is a Python integer which is -1 if an error occurred otherwise is 1 the byte has been
acknowledged by the slave.
Example:
Supposing to set:
bus1 = IIC.new(3,4)
bus2 = IIC.new(5,6)
a = bus1.init()
then:
a = bus1.sendbyte(123)
sends byte 123 to the IIC bus , assigning return result value to a.
2.8.5 IIC object method: send(string)
Sends a string to the IIC bus previously created. Input parameter string is a Python string which is the
string to send to the IIC bus.
