magnetometer Calibration Library does not work
Hello,
I am working on a custom board based on STM32F407 CPU with the LSM6DSV16XTR accelerometer+gyroscope and LIS2MDLTR magnetometer.
The aim is to get board inclination and compass information with the maximum accuracy.
The MotionFX library seems to work fine but the data from magnetometer are not correct since it requires calibration.
On CubeMX even if I select the MotionMC software package, the MotionMC library is not added to the output. I supposed this happen because the Magnetometer calibration functions are already available on the MotionFX library.
The MX_MEMS_Process() is called from a FreeRTOS task, SensorReadRequest is set to 1 from a timer as done in the application demo.
The problem is that
MotionFX_MagCal_getParams(&mag_cal_data_out);
does not update the mag_cal_data_out variable. All the hi_bias output values are 0, cal_quality always 0. During calibration I move the board with the typical "8" pattern but nothing happen.
