 FIRST is like pizza--you and I might prefer different toppings, but there's no wrong way to do it. - Billfred [more] |

Re: Accerometer Problems
(from the same team)
That was our main worry. We'll try hooking up the other 2 axes and see if we have any more success. They aren't backwards, and they are being read (we're just getting impossible numbers, constant scrolling between -2.6 and -2.7 if I remember correctly). Thanks.

Re: Accerometer Problems
We had a similar problem with ours. I believe it was a software issue. Unfortunitly I cant remember what I had to do to fix it.
You can verify the accelerometer is working by using a voltmeter. With the accelerometer hooked up, measure the voltage between the signal pin and ground. Be careful not to short anything out. If you measure something around 1.5V (+/-0.3V) then it is working. Hope that helps. Jeff

Re: Accerometer Problems
When you opened the accelorometer, did you add scaling? The lack of scaling, or scaling thats off may throw your readings.
