Re: hook up ADXL345 to cypress breadboard at driver station

Ok, I just wanted to make sure you weren't overlooking a really easy solution to your problem.

Unfortunately, there isn't a good way to do exactly what you are asking for. Neither legacy nor extended modes offer any of the serial communication methods necessary to talk to an ADXL245. Since the rules prevent you from modifying the code on the cypress board (if used at the driver station), you can't add them either. Bummer.

However, you do have a bunch of analog inputs. You could easily wire in an analog accelerometer, such as the ADXL335 that was in the 2009 KoP.
