Inclinometer 3 Click

Inclinometer 3 Click demo application is developed using the NECTO Studio, ensuring compatibility with mikroSDK's open-source libraries and tools. Designed for plug-and-play implementation and testing, the demo is fully compatible with all development, starter, and mikromedia boards featuring a mikroBUS™ socket.

Click Library

• Author : Nenad Filipovic
• Date : Dec 2023.
• Type : SPI type

Software Support

Example Description

This library contains API for the Inclinometer 3 Click driver. The library initializes and defines the SPI drivers to write and read data from registers, as well as the default configuration for the reading accelerator and temperature data.

Example Libraries

• MikroSDK.Board
• MikroSDK.Log
• Click.Inclinometer3

Example Key Functions

• inclinometer3_cfg_setup Config Object Initialization function.

void inclinometer3_cfg_setup ( inclinometer3_cfg_t *cfg );

• inclinometer3_init Initialization function.

err_t inclinometer3_init ( inclinometer3_t *ctx, inclinometer3_cfg_t *cfg );

• inclinometer3_default_cfg Click Default Configuration function.

err_t inclinometer3_default_cfg ( inclinometer3_t *ctx );

• inclinometer3_get_axes This function reads the accelerometer sensor axes data by using SPI serial interface.

err_t inclinometer3_get_axes ( inclinometer3_t *ctx, float *x_axes, float *y_axes );

• inclinometer3_get_temperature This function reads the temperature measurement data by using SPI serial interface.

err_t inclinometer3_get_temperature ( inclinometer3_t *ctx, float *temperature );

Application Init

The initialization of the SPI module, log UART, and additional pins. After the driver init, the app executes a default configuration.

void application_init ( void )
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;  /**< Logger config object. */
    inclinometer3_cfg_t inclinometer3_cfg;  /**< Click config object. */

    /** 
     * Logger initialization.
     * Default baud rate: 115200
     * Default log level: LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG
     * @note If USB_UART_RX and USB_UART_TX 
     * are defined as HAL_PIN_NC, you will 
     * need to define them manually for log to work. 
     * See @b LOG_MAP_USB_UART macro definition for detailed explanation.
     */
    LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
    log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
    log_info( &logger, " Application Init " );

    // Click initialization.
    inclinometer3_cfg_setup( &inclinometer3_cfg );
    INCLINOMETER3_MAP_MIKROBUS( inclinometer3_cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    if ( SPI_MASTER_ERROR == inclinometer3_init( &inclinometer3, &inclinometer3_cfg ) )
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Communication init." );
        for ( ; ; );
    }
    
    if ( INCLINOMETER3_ERROR == inclinometer3_default_cfg ( &inclinometer3 ) )
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Default configuration." );
        for ( ; ; );
    }
    
    log_info( &logger, " Application Task " );
    log_printf( &logger, " ________________________ \r\n" );
}

Application Task

This example demonstrates the use of the Inclinometer 3 Click board. Measures and displays acceleration data for the XY-axis [mg] and temperature [degree Celsius] data. Results are being sent to the UART Terminal, where you can track their changes.

void application_task ( void )
{
    float temperature = 0, x_axes = 0, y_axes = 0;
    if ( ( INCLINOMETER3_OK == inclinometer3_get_temperature( &inclinometer3, &temperature ) ) && 
         ( INCLINOMETER3_OK == inclinometer3_get_axes( &inclinometer3, &x_axes, &y_axes ) ) )
    {
        log_printf( &logger, " Accel X: %.2f mg\r\n", x_axes );
        log_printf( &logger, " Accel Y: %.2f mg\r\n\r\n", y_axes );
        log_printf( &logger, " Temperature : %.2f degC\r\n", temperature );
        log_printf( &logger, " ________________________ \r\n" );
        Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    }
}

Application Output

This Click board can be interfaced and monitored in two ways:

• Application Output - Use the "Application Output" window in Debug mode for real-time data monitoring. Set it up properly by following this tutorial.
• UART Terminal - Monitor data via the UART Terminal using a USB to UART converter. For detailed instructions, check out this tutorial.

Additional Notes and Information

The complete application code and a ready-to-use project are available through the NECTO Studio Package Manager for direct installation in the NECTO Studio. The application code can also be found on the MIKROE GitHub account.
