Reading it will trigger an I2C read and will hence -report the current input state for the pins configured as inputs, and the -current output value for the pins configured as outputs. - -The write file is read-write. Writing a value to it will configure all pins -as output for which the corresponding bit is zero. Reading the write file will -return the value last written, or -EAGAIN if no value has yet been written to -the write file. - -On module initialization the configuration of the chip is not changed -- the -chip is left in the state it was already configured in through either power-up -or through previous I2C write actions. |
