Downloadable macro reference

Fc9-comp-macro.png ReadReference_Int
Returns the Reference (IC die) temperature from the last sample as an integer value. Use Sample first, which samples both reference & themocouple temperatures. 
Fc9-s16-icon.png - INT Return


Fc9-comp-macro.png ReadRawDataADC
Returns the thermocouple temperature from the last sample as an integer value in Degrees C. 
Fc9-s32-icon.png - LONG Return


Fc9-comp-macro.png ReadReference_Float
Returns the reference (IC die) temperature from the last sample as a floating point. Use Sample first, which samples both reference & themocouple temperatures. 
Fc9-f32-icon.png - FLOAT Return


Fc9-comp-macro.png Sample
Must be called before any of the Read functions. Reads the memory of the MCP9600/1 IC. Returns 0 for 9600. Checks for errors, MCP9601 only. Returns: 0 = OK, 1 = O/ C Themocouple & 2=S/C Themocouple. 
Fc9-u8-icon.png - BYTE Return


Fc9-comp-macro.png ReadRegister
Reads a byte from a register 
Fc9-u8-icon.png - BYTE Address
 
Fc9-u8-icon.png - BYTE Return


Fc9-comp-macro.png ReadThermocouple_Int
Returns the thermocouple temperature from the last sample as an integer value. Use Sample first, which samples both reference & themocouple temperatures. 
Fc9-s16-icon.png - INT Return


Fc9-comp-macro.png ReadThermocouple_Float
Returns the thermocouple temperature from the last sample as a floating point value. Use Sample first, which samples both reference & themocouple temperatures. 
Fc9-f32-icon.png - FLOAT Return


Fc9-comp-macro.png WriteRegister
Writes a byte to a register 
Fc9-u8-icon.png - BYTE Address
 
Fc9-u8-icon.png - BYTE Data
 
Fc9-void-icon.png - VOID Return


Fc9-comp-macro.png Initialise
Configures the I2C bus ready for communications. 
Fc9-void-icon.png - VOID Return
