This object was introduced in InCore 2.5.

› Inherits:I2cBus

Properties

error

This property holds the most recently occurred error or SystemI2cBus.NoError if no error occurred. If the same error occurs multiple times this property does not change. Use the errorOccurred() signal to detect multiple occurrences of the same error.

› Type:Error
› Signal:errorChanged()
› Attributes:Readonly

errorString

This property holds the current human readable error string corresponding to the current value in the error property. It may include additional information such as failure reasons or locations.

› Type:String
› Signal:errorStringChanged()
› Attributes:Readonly

index

This property holds the I2C bus number.

› Type:UnsignedInteger
› Default:4294967295
› Signal:indexChanged()
› Attributes:Writable

Signals

errorOccurred()

This signal is emitted whenever an error has occurred, regardless of whether the error property has changed or not. In contrast to the change notification signal of the error property this signal is also emitted several times if a certain error occurs several times in succession.

Enumerations
