A device address consists of a primary address and an
optional secondary address. The secondary address is
separated from the primary address by a plus sign (+).
Only the lower five bits of each address are significant.
These bits may be in the range from 0 through 30 for
both the primary and the secondary address. Therefore,

decimal 2.
The following examples all specify a primary address of
0 and a secondary address of 2. The listen address is
