Re: Programming acc/gyro

Here is a follow-up question.

The WPI accelerometer icons found in LabVIEW under the WPI library is for an analog accelerometer (example under analog section of FRC examples). Is that using the gyroscope used as an accelerometer? If so, how is it wired?

The A..345 accelerometer is a digital device. The example for the A..345 worked for me, but I'm not clear about how to bring the driver code for that into the project.

I'm not sure if I need to pursue wiring an analog accelerometer to use the LabVIEW stuff that is readily available, or if I should stick the A...345 digital accelerometer and figure out how to import the drivers into the project.

Thank you,
Tim
