Initialise

Fc9-comp-macro.png Initialise
Starts up the I2C bus and initialises the pressure sensor ready for use. Returns 1 for a sucessful startup. Returns 0 for a failed startup or no device detected. 
Fc9-u8-icon.png - BYTE Return


ReadPressureFloat

Fc9-comp-macro.png ReadPressureFloat
Reads the pressure as a floating point value in Bars. Calls the ReadPressureRaw function and then converts to a meaningful value. 
Fc9-f32-icon.png - FLOAT Return


ReadTemperatureFloat

Fc9-comp-macro.png ReadTemperatureFloat
Reads the temperature as a floating point value in °C. Resultion sets the return bit value and conversion time. Calls the ReadTemperatureRaw function and then converts to a meaningful value. 
Fc9-f32-icon.png - FLOAT Return


Reset

Fc9-comp-macro.png Reset
Resets the device 
Fc9-void-icon.png - VOID Return

Fc9-type-7-icon.png 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.
