Acceleration Sensor Connected, but values are odd....
I got the Acceleration sensor working (if people are still having problems with this, PM me, i'd be happy to help) but the values i'm getting are odd....

when sitting still the value returned by Get_Analog_Value(rc_ana_in09) is around 716-717, and can get to about 915 or so when shaked.....

is this normal?

how can i transofrm these to normal 0-255 values? should i?

Thanks!
