Accelerometer

How do you connect the accelerometer and how do you read the data?

Re: Accelerometer

Kevin Watson has graciously donated his time and wrote us an accelerometer driver with supporting documentation. You can get it here.

Re: Accelerometer

Basically to read the value of any analog input device:

Code:

Get_Analog_Value(rc_ana_in0X)

Re: Accelerometer

Could anyone tell us how to change the Analog Input for the Accelerometer? I have been reading ans can not seem to find it. This is one of those things we are probably just looking over and can't find. If anyone can help us that would be great.

THIS QUESTION WAS POSTED SO THE PROGRAMMERS CAN STOP DRIVING ME CRAZY....(IM AN ELECTRONICS PERSON)
