I have an 8541 board with a number of I2C chips and am having trouble understanding the use of inm & inw. I can iprobe, but when I try to write the first byte to zero, I get an error. The chip at address 70 is a Philips PCA9538 with four registers and I am trying to write the first register at offset zero to the value zero.
Can someone help me understand the error of my ways.
