Acceleration application notes |
- Identify output 1 by it's three pins and output 2 by it's only pin.
- Output 1 corresponds with acceleration perpendicular to the long side of the sensor, while output 2 corresponds with acceleration in the direction of the long side of the sensor.
- Rotating the sensor around either of the two sensitive axes will change the 0 G output value corresponding to the inclination or tilt of the sensor, see inclination application notes.
- Warning ! Make sure the sensor is plugged into the Digitizer with the red wire connected to power. Reversing the plug may cause damage to the sensor.

Inclination application notes |
- Identify output 1 by it's three pins and output 2 by it's only pin.
- Output 1 corresponds with inclination perpendicular to the long side of the sensor (ie. rotation about the long side of the sensor), while output 2 corresponds with inclination in the direction of the long side of the sensor (ie. rotation about the short side of the sensor).
- Motion other than rotation (as a result of inclination or tilt) in either of the two sensitive axes may generate sensor output corresponding to the acceleration of the motion, see acceleration application notes.
- Warning ! Make sure the sensor is plugged into the digitizer with the red wire connected to power. Reversing the plug may cause damage to the sensor.
