I2C Bus for Kulp Controllers

Kulp Lights Controller's I2C Bus Demystified

The Kulp controllers use the I2C bus for a multitude of different peripherals. Sometimes when there are issues, it's possible that a device may not be registering correctly. In FPP there is a menu item for "Troubleshooting Commands" that will print a list of the I2C devices that are detected. The list below shows the mapping of the number displayed and the device that uses that slot.
