step counter detection not working on lsm6dsr

[AHuta.1]

Enabling "step counter detection" on lsm6dsr using the application note [1] "basic SW routine" does not seem to work (1-13 routine steps). Device always reads the value: 2C00h from registers 62h and 63h. Any pointers on how to debug the issue?

Hi @AHuta.1​ ,

you might try with this C sample code on Github --> lsm6dsr_fifo_****.c

This file is built to read step count from FIFO, should be better in terms of optimization than the use case in the application note.
