87 87  We have two sets of chips, one for left and one for right where we have two different i2c chips on each side for controlling lights. Since the chips controlling their respective parts have the same address for each side, we can't distinguish them from each other. To handle this we use a i2c multiplexer to selectively communicate with one half at a time, switching TCA9548 between two different output ports.

Earlier we found the i2c address and just by playing around figured out that 4 segments of 1 byte binary values are used to set ship register.
