I2C Scratching my head

Back in the swing of the development after a time away and now scratching my head!

To recap, where am I ... sensors!!!!  Sensors are everything so the lovely drone knows what is happening.

The problem is that I need loads of sensors and not enough ports on my Gadgeteer board to connect them all.  The cunning plan is to network them together with the I2C protocol.

I'm having a big problem though :(

I just cannot get the a single sensor to talk to the Gadgeteer board!  

Not sure what to do next.

I've double checked the soldering, all good.  I've ensured the wiring is correct, all good.  Resistors on the I2C and Clock lines are good.  The C# code module code is super simple and no joy.

I think I'll have to buy an I2C Gadgeteer component just to check the module code is correct.

Daisy, Daisy ... give me your answer do!

One of the problems concerning me was, I have many sensors and not enough connectors on the Gadgeteer Mainboard ... what am I do to?

I'd seen that the Gadgeteer board has I2C (pronounced "I Squared C") and oddly years and years (11 to be exact) I'd done some I2C development.  Basically it allows a master controller to talk up to 126 components.

Fantastic!!!  The question is how to connect I2C breakout boards to a Gadgeteer main board?  Thankfully the book Gadgeteer book I've been reading has all the information :)

Here's the plan, I'm doing to create my own Gadgeteer module.  Physically it will have three senors on it that are all connected via I2C.  I'll then write the module software so the Mainboard can connect to all three via the I2C.

Sounds hard however the module software is easy looking.  The tricky part will be the initial configuration of the sensors however once that is cracked it's happy days :)

Best of all, I can create my own modules that link to further modules.  Gadgeteer calls this "DaisyLink" which seems to be an implementation of I2C for talking to multiple devices thus removing some of the complication for me.  Great one Microsoft :)

First step, create my module ... I'll do something simple, not sure what yet :)
