I2C Scanner

by shedboy71

This very simple sketch scans the I2C-bus for devices. If a device is found, it is reported to the Arduino serial monitor.

Code

#include <Wire.h>

void setup()
{
Wire.begin();

Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println(“\nI2C Scanner”);
}

void loop()
{
byte error, address;
int nDevices;

Serial.println(“Scanning…”);

nDevices = 0;
for(address = 1; address < 127; address++ )
{
// The i2c_scanner uses the return value of
// the Write.endTransmisstion to see if
// a device did acknowledge to the address.
Wire.beginTransmission(address);
error = Wire.endTransmission();

if (error == 0)
{
Serial.print(“I2C device found at address 0x”);
if (address<16)
Serial.print(“0″);
Serial.print(address,HEX);
Serial.println(” !”);

nDevices++;
}
else if (error==4)
{
Serial.print(“Unknow error at address 0x”);
if (address<16)
Serial.print(“0″);
Serial.println(address,HEX);
}
}
if (nDevices == 0)
Serial.println(“No I2C devices found\n”);
else
Serial.println(“done\n”);

delay(5000); // wait 5 seconds for next scan
}
