Macro reference

GetStatus

	GetStatus
Reads the status register testing for if the magnet is detected and in range. Bit2 = Magnet Detected, Bit1 = Magnet too weak, Bit0 = Magnet too strong Ideally the best response is 4, magnet detected and in range.
- BYTE	Return

Initialise

	Initialise
Configures the I2C bus ready for communications and applies the settings defined in the properties. Also sets the default power level to always on. Returns 1 if the module is detected 0 if the module is not found
- BYTE	Return

ReadAngle

	ReadAngle
Returns the angle as a floating point value between 0 and 360 degrees.
- FLOAT	Return

ReadRawAngle

	ReadRawAngle
Returns the angle as a raw value between 0 and 4095 representing 0 to 360 degrees.
- UINT	Return

SetPowerMode

	SetPowerMode
Configures the power mode of the device.
- BYTE	Mode
0=Always On, 1=5ms Polling, 2=20ms Polling, 3=100ms Polling
- VOID	Return
