LSM303 Class Reference

C++ API for LSM303. More...

Detailed Description

• ID: lsm303
• Name: LSM303 Accelerometer & Compass
• Other Names: Grove 6-Axis Accelerometer & Compass
• Category: accelerometer compass
• Manufacturer: seeed adafruit
• Link: http://www.seeedstudio.com/wiki/Grove_-_6-Axis_Accelerometer%26Compass
• Connection: i2c

This file defines the LSM303DLH 3-axis magnetometer/3-axis accelerometer. This module was tested with the SeedStudio Grove [6-Axis Accelerometer&Compass] module that is used over i2c. The magnometer and acceleromter are accessed at two seperate i2c addresses.

main(int argc, char **argv)
{
    // Instantiate LSM303 compass on I2C
    upm::LSM303 *sensor = new upm::LSM303(0);

    // Get the coordinate data
    sensor->getCoordinates();
    int16_t* coor = sensor->getRawCoorData(); // in XYZ order. 
    // The sensor returns XZY, but the driver compensates and makes it XYZ
    
    // Print out the X, Y, and Z coordinate data using two different methods
    std::cout << "coor: rX " << (int)coor[0]
              << " - rY " << (int)coor[1]

    std::cout << "heading: "
              << sensor->getHeading()
              << std::endl;

    // Get the acceleration
    sensor->getAcceleration();

Member Function Documentation

float getHeading

(

)

Get Current Heading, headings <0 indicate an error occured

Returns

float

Here is the call graph for this function:

mraa_result_t getCoordinates

(

)

Get the coordinates in XYZ order
