Channel selection 
Fc9-type-5-icon.png SDA
Pin used for SDA (data signal) 
Fc9-type-5-icon.png SCL
Pin used for SCL (clock signal)

Fc9-type-14-icon.png Baud Rate

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.
