PhidgetDataAdapterMBS.i2cComplexTransaction(address as Integer, I2CPacketString as String, Data as MemoryBlock, recvDataLen as Integer) as MemoryBlock

method	Phidgets	MBS Phidgets Plugin	26.4	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	❌ No	Desktop, Console & Web

Initiates a set of write and read transactions to happen in quick succession.

address: The address of the I2C device
I2CPacketString: Specify the bytes of your I2C packet using 's' for start, 'R' for read, 'T' for write, and 'p' for stop. Only one stop condition per call is supported.

For example, if you wanted to write two bytes, generate a repeat start, write one more byte, then read three bytes, the string would be "sTTsTsRRRp".

You can also use numbers to indicate the number of bytes, e.g. "sT2sTsR3p"
data: The entire set of data to send, in order from first to last. The length of this data must match the total number of bytes specified to be sent in the I2CPacketString. The byte length must be ≤ MaxSendPacketLength.
recvDataLen: Specifies the length of the recvData array.

Returns the data read.

Sends a packet and waits for a corresponding response from the external device, until the timeout elapses.

data: The data to send. Byte length must be ≤ MaxSendPacketLength.
recvDataLen: Specifies the length of the recvData array. If <= 0, we check MaxReceivePacketLength for a length.

Returns the data read.
