The "Get angle" function returns a constantly increasing value starting in zero even if I don't move the sensor.. and the "Angular rate" displays a constant value, -1.22something


If I apply a regular get analog function to the gyro, I get 4,6 (volts) and it doesn't change much no matter if I turn it.. the Sensor Manual says it should be around 2,5V, so either there's something wrong with my wiring or my sensor
Check your wiring. You may have wired up to the "temperature" signal rather than the "rate" signal. I speak from experience, I got similar rusults when I did just that. After rewiring, the labview demo worked great.
