#define COMP 0
#define COMP1 1
#define COMP2 2

It's unclear what the defines mean, but if COMP really does exist (is
there a datasheet for this device?) then your solution is a suitable
one. However, if there is a COMP, then why isn't it used?

If it doesn't actually exist then this would be more appropriate
change I think:

#define COMP1 0
#define COMP2 1
