Hi all,
I want to read data from my ADXL345 accelerometer. I have connect this I2C device to I2C-USB convertor module and then connect them to my PC through a USB cable.
I have write the following code to read but it always return 255.
Code:byte[] result = new byte[4];
mySerialPort.Write(new byte[] { 0x56, 0x53, 0x33,0x32,2 }, 0, 5);
mySerialPort.Read(result, 0, 2);
Returns 255 where?
ADXL345 | 3-Axis, ±2 g/±4 g/±8 g/±16 g Digital Accelerometer | MEMS Inertial Sensors | MEMS and Sensors | Analog Devices
According to this, it returns THREE 16-bit numbers per sample, you allocate space for TWO 16-bit numbers and read only ONE 16-bit number.
> mySerialPort.Read(result, 0, 2);
I'm guessing this also returns a status (success, fail, number of bytes read).
Perhaps you should pay attention to this as well, rather than just assuming it works.
Hi Salem and thanks for your immediate reply,I am too beginner in programming for this kind of devices.I have read the documentation of it but i could not found that how does it work. Please describe for me the steps of reading from this I2C device through an I2C-USB module?
Please read the whole bunch of tutorials, examples, and program samples which are available on the manufacturer website for your controller board.
