PS Measurement Rate
// The PS_MEAS_RATE register controls the PS measurement rate.
// Default setting of the register is 0x02 (repeat rate 100ms)

ALS Measurement Rate
// The ALS_MEAS_RATE register controls the ALS integration time and measurement rate.
// Default setting of the register is 0x03 (integration time 100ms, repeat rate 500ms)
Slave_Addr = 0x23 // Slave address of LTR-559 device
// Set ALS Integration Time 200ms, Repeat Rate 200ms
Register_Addr = 0x85 // ALS_MEAS_RATE register
Command = 0x12 // Int time = 200ms, Meas rate = 200ms
// For Int time = 400ms, Meas rate = 500ms, Command = 0x1B

ALS Data Registers (Read Only)
// The ALS Data Registers contain the ADC output data for the respective channel.
// These registers should be read as a group, with the lower address being read first.

// Read back ALS_DATA_CH1
Register_Addr = 0x88 // ALS_DATA_CH1 low byte address

Register_Addr = 0x89 // ALS_DATA_CH1 high byte address
ReadByte(Slave_Addr, Register_Addr, Data1)
// Read back ALS_DATA_CH0
Register_Addr = 0x8A // ALS_DATA_CH0 low byte address
ReadByte(Slave_Addr, Register_Addr, Data2)
Register_Addr = 0x8B // ALS_DATA_CH0 high byte address
ReadByte(Slave_Addr, Register_Addr, Data3)
ALS_CH1_ADC_Data = (Data1 << 8) | Data0 // Combining lower and upper bytes to give 16-bit Ch1 data
ALS_CH0_ADC_Data = (Data3 << 8) | Data2 // Combining lower and upper bytes to give 16-bit Ch0 data
