The first thing that I do when using a new I2C device is to run an I2C scanner to confirm that I am using the right address and that the device is communicating over the bus.
// I2C scanner by Nick Gammon. Thanks Nick.
#include <Wire.h>
void setup() {
Serial.begin (115200); //***** make sure serial monitor baud matches *****
// Leonardo: wait for serial port to connect
while (!Serial)
{
}
Serial.println ();
Serial.println ("I2C scanner. Scanning ...");
byte count = 0;
Wire.begin();
for (byte i = 1; i < 120; i++)
{
Wire.beginTransmission (i);
if (Wire.endTransmission () == 0)
{
Serial.print ("Found address: ");
Serial.print (i, DEC);
Serial.print (" (0x");
Serial.print (i, HEX);
Serial.println (")");
count++;
delay (1); // maybe unneeded?
} // end of good response
} // end of for loop
Serial.println ("Done.");
Serial.print ("Found ");
Serial.print (count, DEC);
Serial.println (" device(s).");
} // end of setup
void loop() {}
