Board 0: Address = 0x60 Offset = binary 0000 (no jumpers required)

Board 1: Address = 0x61 Offset = binary 0001 (bridge A0)

Board 2: Address = 0x62 Offset = binary 0010 (bridge A1, the one above A0)

Board 3: Address = 0x63 Offset = binary 0011 (bridge A0 & A1, two bottom jumpers)

Board 4: Address = 0x64 Offset = binary 0100 (bridge A2, middle jumper)

etc.

Stacking in Code

Now that you've changed the I2C address on the hardware, you need to set it in your code. When you initialise the

class, you can set the address.

Then you can use kit1 and kit2 to control the motors attached to the associated hat.

Note that address 0x70 is the "all call" address for the controller chip on the HAT. All boards will respond to

address 0x70 - regardless of the address jumper settings.

from adafruit_motorkit import MotorKit

# Initialise the first hat on the default address

kit1 = MotorKit()

# Initialise the second hat on a different address

kit2 = MotorKit(address=0x61)
