HiTechnic compass - reading 65535?
Is this how to use the HiTechnic compass?

Code:
  HiTechnicCompass *m_compass;
  float CompassAngle;

....

  m_compass = new HiTechnicCompass(4); // slot 4

....

  CompassAngle = m_compass->GetAngle();
The CompassAngle readings are always 65535.0. We checked the cable continuity from the I2C connector on the sidecar to the compass module and it seems ok. See anything wrong?
