LSM303 Class
- ID: lsm303
- Name: Triaxial Accelerometer/magnetometer
- Other Names: Grove 6-Axis Accelerometer & Compass
- Category: accelerometer compass
- Manufacturer: seeed adafruit stmicro
- Link: http://www.seeedstudio.com/wiki/Grove_-_6-Axis_Accelerometer%26Compass
- Connection: i2c
This module defines the LSM303DLH 3-axis magnetometer/3-axis accelerometer. This module was tested with the Seeed Studio* Grove 6-Axis Accelerometer & Compass module used over I2C. The magnetometer and acceleromter are accessed at two seperate I2C addresses.

accScale
Instantiates an LSM303 object
Parameters:
-
busNumberI2C bus to use
-
addrMagNumberI2C address of the Magnetometer (default 0x1E)
-
addrAccNumberI2C address of the Accelerometer (default 0x19)
-
accScaleNumberAccelerometer scale, can be 2, 4 or 8 (default 8)
Returns:
getHeading
()
Number
LSM303 object destructor where is no more need for this here - I2c connection will be stopped automatically when m_i2c variable will go out of scope ~LSM303 (); Gets the current heading; headings <0 indicate an error has occurred
