        			I2CDeviceConfig.DEFAULT,           	//I2C bus index
        			0x23,          				//I2C device address
        			I2CDeviceConfig.ADDR_SIZE_7,       	//Number of bits in the address
        			1000000       						//I2C Clock Frequency (Fast Mode)
        			);
            	I2CDevice    aDevice = (I2CDevice) DeviceManager.open(I2CDevice.class, config,1);
            	 aDevice.write(0x10);

Hi,
are you getting any error in kura.log or kura-console.log?

Best regards,
Matteo

Hello,
Now i update my code and reading 2byte of data.


		I2CDeviceConfig config = new I2CDeviceConfig(
    			I2CDeviceConfig.DEFAULT,           	//I2C bus index
    			0x23,          				//I2C device address
    			I2CDeviceConfig.ADDR_SIZE_7,       	//Number of bits in the address
    			1000000       						//I2C Clock Frequency (Fast Mode)
    			);
        	 aDevice = (I2CDevice) DeviceManager.open(I2CDevice.class, config,1);
                   
                   aDevice.write(0x10);
        	 //byte[] p = new byte[2];
        	 ByteBuffer p =ByteBuffer.allocate(2);
        	   aDevice.read(p); 
        	   int result=(p.get(0)<< 8 | p.get(1));
        	   s_logger.info("Read p "  +result);

But now sometime i got minus values.
I dnt know this procedure is right or not to read the BH1705 sensor data.
Please tell me if any changes need in this.

Hello,
I've personally never used that device.
What I can suggest is to have a look at the logs to see if something strange is written there.
Best regards,
Matteo
