readRegister

Read data from I2C device register

Description

example

out= readRegister(dev,register)returns data read from the I2C device register.

example

out= readRegister(dev,register,precision)also specifies the data precision.

Examples

Create an Arduino object and attach an I2C device object to it.

a = arduino('COM9','Uno','Libraries','I2C');

Use an address to create the I2C device connection.

dev = device(a,'I2CAddress','0x55')
dev = device with properties: Interface: 'I2C' I2CAddress: 85 ('0x55') Bus: 0 SCLPin: 'A5' SDAPin: 'A4' BitRate: 100000 (bits/s) Show functions

Write value 10 to the I2C device register at address 20.

writeRegister(dev,20,10);

Read from the I2C device register at address 20.

value = readRegister(dev,20)
value = 10

Create an Arduino object and attach an I2C device object to it.

a = arduino('COM9','Uno','Libraries','I2C');

Use an address to create the I2C device connection.

dev = device(a,'I2CAddress','0x54');

Write value 224 to the I2C device register at address 20 with the precision of uint16

writeRegister(dev, 20, 224,'uint16');

Read from the I2C device register at address 20 with the precision of uint16.

value = readRegister(dev,20,'uint16')
value = 224

Input Arguments
