@Fabian_R The jumps in you document helped. I was originally using AN12395 Sec 5.3 as a reference.
@msjcard I was able to get a logical analyzer and can read the i2c bus from the SE to the sensor but the output doesn't make sense (see attachment) The i2c message are not correct the Writes and Reads are not as expected. I can trace the the bus from the RPi to the SE and the trace is as expected (not wierd). My sensor is a DS3231 real-time clk (addr = 0x68) and I can read the seconds register (0x00) directly from the RPi without any problems.
I am using code directly adapted from demo/se0x_i2c_Master.c. My TLV[].cmd.w.wrStatus is still NACK Fail (0x01), however TLV[].cmd.rd.rdStatus is Success (0x5A, i guess it is reading the error well). Maybe I dont understand the TVL[] order when it gets passed to Se05x_i2c_master_txn() although it seems strait forward.
Thanks for the help.
