Accelerometers on a bedslinger

[dc42]

@tecno if you are connecting both via SPI, you can do either. RRF currently only supports one directly-connected accelerometer, so even if you do use two different I/O ports, you will still need to change the accelerometer config command to switch between them.

@dc42

OK one cable to one port it is then, thank you !

[tecno]

Is this OK?

Wire# Duet Mini5+
1 nc
2 IO_3 GND
3 nc
4 SBC26_23
5 SBC26_19
6 SBC26_26
7 IO_3 in
8 IO_3 3.3V
9 IO_3 out
10 nc

@tecno no, don't use the SBC connector, that's on a different SPI channel.

@dc42

Cables fixed today, one accelerometer and the other to have IO1 extended outside for easier tests not needed to breakdown the printer from is cabinet.

Any suggestions what to do next?

@tecno are those results with or without the extension cable? The ribbon cable by itself should be OK if it is made up the same as the one I illustrated at https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Accelerometers#Section_Direct_SPI_connection_to_a_Duet_main_board.

@dc42
1m and to your spec. Have continuity tested the cable/connectors. NO extension.

These are going back to seller, I do not believe these are DSH. Board looks very different to others on market. Ordered new from PureTek in UK that are on its way.

[dc42]

@tecno confirm you are using RRF 3.4beta2 ? Earlier versions do not support the LIS3DSH.

[tecno]

@dc42
Still on 3.3, expected a sign of life.

@tecno said in Accelerometers on a bedslinger:

If it's a LIS3DSH (not 3DH) then you won't get any response using 3.3.

@dc42
Is there any benefit in using the DSH variant?

[dc42]

@o_lampe it has higher resolution, different sampling rates and produces a slightly cleaner signal.
