Possible values: + -2 - disconnect on idle, i.e. deselect the last used + channel, which is useful when there is a device + with an address that conflicts with another + device on another mux on the same parent bus. + -1 - leave the mux as-is, which is the most optimal + setting in terms of I2C operations and is the + default mode. + 0..<nchans> - set the mux to a predetermined channel, + which is useful if there is one channel that is + used almost always, and you want to reduce the + latency for normal operations after rare + transactions on other channels |
