How to configure LSM6DS3 inactivity / activity capabilities
Hello,
I was trying to setup an inactivity/activity program in Arduino using a Xiao Sense NRF52840, that has the LSM6DS3 chip on it, and with using the register i was trying to recognize inactivity and activity. If anyone has insight as to why this isnt working it would be appreciated.
#include "LSM6DS3.h"
#include "Wire.h"
#define CLEAR_STEP true
#define NOT_CLEAR_STEP false
//Create a instance of class LSM6DS3
LSM6DS3 lsm6ds3(I2C_MODE, 0x6A); //I2C device address 0x6A
uint16_t detectCount = 0;
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
while (!Serial);
if (lsm6ds3.begin() != 0) {
Serial.println("Device error");
} else {
Serial.println("Device OK!");
}
if (0 != config_free_fall_detect()) {
Serial.println("Fail to configure!");
} else {
Serial.println("Success to Configure!");
}
}
void loop() {
uint8_t readDataByte = 0;
//Read the wake-up source register
lsm6ds3.readRegister(&readDataByte, LSM6DS3_ACC_GYRO_WAKE_UP_SRC);
//Mask off the FF_IA bit for free-fall detection
readDataByte &= 0x10;
if (readDataByte) {
detectCount ++;
Serial.print("Inactivity Detected! ");
Serial.println(detectCount);
}
delay(10);
}
int config_free_fall_detect(void) {
uint8_t error = 0;
uint8_t dataToWrite = 0;
dataToWrite |= LSM6DS3_ACC_GYRO_BW_XL_200Hz;
dataToWrite |= LSM6DS3_ACC_GYRO_FS_XL_2g;
dataToWrite |= LSM6DS3_ACC_GYRO_ODR_XL_416Hz;
error += lsm6ds3.writeRegister(LSM6DS3_ACC_GYRO_CTRL1_XL, dataToWrite);
error += lsm6ds3.writeRegister(LSM6DS3_ACC_GYRO_WAKE_UP_DUR, 0x42);
error += lsm6ds3.writeRegister(LSM6DS3_ACC_GYRO_WAKE_UP_THS, 0x42);
error += lsm6ds3.writeRegister(LSM6DS3_ACC_GYRO_MD1_CFG, 0x80);
return error;
}
