Hi all,

I’m trying to implement the Arduino UNO with the Sparkfun ADXL362 Accelerometer. I followed this tutorial:

[http://ez.analog.com/docs/DOC-2222](http://ez.analog.com/docs/DOC-2222)

and installed the proper library:

[http://annem.github.io/ADXL362/](http://annem.github.io/ADXL362/)

But the reading in the serial monitor are all the time zero:

XDATA = 0 YDATA = 0 ZDATA = 0 Temperature = 0

XDATA = 0 YDATA = 0 ZDATA = 0 Temperature = 0

XDATA = 0 YDATA = 0 ZDATA = 0 Temperature = 0

etc…

Every connection is double checked. Can anyone give some clue on what could be wrong?

Thanks a lot!

You should read this thread and the one it links to.

If things aren’t clear then, post your code so we can see what it’s doing.

Thanks for the answers! We are a group of three, and have already checked those threads… sadly, since we’re on a game jam, we had to move forward quickly, and are already implementing an iphone solution. But it would be great to be able to implement this!
