Properties
Channel
Channel selection 
SDA
Pin used for SDA (data signal) 
SCL
Pin used for SCL (clock signal) 
Baud Select
Baud rate option selector 
Baud Rate
Baud rate to be used 
Stop Delay
On older microcontroller devices there is a potential for the I2C hardware channel to lock up if there is not a 10ms delay between an I2C stop event and the next I2C start event. Most modern microcontrollers will not have a problem so this property can be disabled to speed up the I2C communications.

Simulation GUI
Min. Temp.
Minimum termperature that can be set or displayed on the thermometer slider. 
Max. Temp.
Maximum termperature that can be set or displayed on the thermometer slider. 
Scale divisions
Number of numbered divisions shown on the thermometer scale. 
I2C Data
Set whether the I2C data is displayed as decimal or hexadecimal numbers.
