Beaglebone RevB4 i2cdetect output

First we get a baseline for the bus.  Not sure what UU means be these are the results:

After connecting the K8000 header to pins 19, 20 and GND we get some new results - 38, 39 and 48:

So what does these addresses map to on the K8000?

Clues from velleman and i2c drivers that reference 0x38 and 0x39 ports:


https://github.com/Maescool/libk8000/blob/master/k8000.c

and

http://exd.at/k8000-howto-3.html


3. the programs

3.1 check-i2c.c

This small C-program checks all addresses from 0 to 127 if there are reacheable i2c-chips connected to your parallel port. Before you start this program, you should compile and link it by typing make all and load all i2c kernel modules with the above described script named "velle"

3.2 velleman.c

velleman.c is doing some test with digital-output on your velleman K8000. This program is expecting that you have a K8000 connected to your /dev/lp0 and that all i2c drivers are loaded as described before. It switches all outputs on and off. There is a small help available (just read the source ;-)
