Hi. Is there any way to get the as5600 sensor working in XOD via i2c? I have tried, by the help of chat gpt, but I can’t get it working. I’m a noob, so can only do basic stuff, but would love to get it working.  
Thanks!

Try using the “i2c” library nodes to receive data from the sensor in the form of bytes.

I did this (with the help of chatgpt), but I don’t get any readout at all at the “watch” node.  
What am I doing wrong? Thanks

There should be an initialization node with the i2c address of your device. Look at the example in the xod/l2c library
