	Device Address
	Preset
Sets the default preset for the module. Can be overridden by calling the SetPresetMode component macro.
	I2C Properties
	Connections
	Channel
Channel selection
	SDA
Pin used for SDA (data signal)
	SDA Remap Pin
	SCL
Pin used for SCL (clock signal)
	SCL Remap Pin
	Options
	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.
