The IC on Accel G248 should be able to be put in 8g mode. However there are no functionality in the framework to do this.
Can I do this with RLP or modifying something.
Here are the IC
A quick look at the source code shows that it’s a very basic implementation.
You can grab the existing source code from BitBucket.
Oh yea, did not know about that but I actually found it now for 2 sec ago!
@ KaptenJon - Has anyone worked on a more sophisticated driver? If not, I may give it a go (I have done some deep level I2C programming on other gadgeteer devices).
Specifically to add:
[ul]
Interrupts (thresholds set in ‘mg’)
events (for timed readings)
Set ranges (2g/4g/8g)
output real ‘mg’ values
set other basic chip config (make sample frequency configurable to specific values or make dependent on timed readings)
[/ul]
The device has lots of other capability but 90% of it unlikely to be broadly appealing. Weigh in if there is other capability that should be surfaced.
If anyone has started working on this, LMK. Otherwise this shouldn’t take more than a couple of days to put together.
Mark.
