Was trying to use the mpu6050 plugin with an of the schelf mpu6050. When i run the code stated here: https://synthiam.com/Software/Manual/MPU6050-Accelerometer-Gyro-Temperature-16187 i get this message: Error on line 1: Capability 'I2C Master' is not supported on this device. Does this plugin only suports the EZ-Bit MPU6050?

MPU6050 Accelerometer Gyro Temperature
by Synthiam
Reads MPU6050 gyro, accelerometer and temperature via I2C, initializes and returns data on-demand to EZ-Script variables using ControlCommand RunOnce
You have to connect to an ezb supporting I2c before running the script. At the time of this response, the two i2c supported ezb are from ezrobot and they’re EZ-B v4 and iotiny. The arduino ezb does not support i2c at the time of this response.
Dj i am using an ezb-v4.
i think dj means devices from ez robot.am not sure.Now i can connect but synthiam freezes...
ARC freezes? Does the red LED stay lit on the ezb? If so, your i2c device is not communicating and it’s locking the ezb v4
When I used a third party MPU-6050 board with the EZ-B I had to change the SDA and SCL pullup resistors as the on-board resistors were too weak (4.7k I believe). I changed them to 1Kohm.
I also shortened the wire length to diminish the capacitance on the SDA and SCL lines.
I feel like I might have had a similar problem with an off brand sensor years ago. Maybe if you take a look a my old thread it might help you, or at least see if your problem is the same as the one I had back then. https://synthiam.com/Community/Questions/Non-Ez-robot-Mpu9150-Any-Luck-1530
The SDA and SCL pullups are 222 (2.2k). Tested the mpu6050 on an arduino and it works ok. I will try to shorten the wires. Is the i2C line diferent on the ezb v4? I thougt it would be standard.
