QUESTION
I got an MPU connected to a wemos d1 mini. The sensor send 3 values: X,Y and Z axis. Since my project is solar powered I need to reduce power consumption. In order to do so I want to read the 3 values of the MPU every 3 seconds, store the values in an array and after 5 minutes of sampling power up the wifi and send the array via mqtt to my topic.
I've already tested every part of my code and everything works. For example if I try to send an array of three objects it works perfectly But when I try to send an array of 100 objects it doesn't work.
(Note: Where the above "100" come from? If I need to send data every 5 minutes and I read values every 3 seconds here I have 100 samplings)
Hope someone could help

QUESTION
I'm trying to send data from my Wemos to Node-red via MQTT. I created a nested object I want to send to MQTT. From the serial of Arduino IDE the output is this (and that's what I want):
[{"AcX":-1,"AcY":-1,"AcZ":-1},{"AcX":-1,"AcY":-1,"AcZ":-1},{"AcX":-1,"AcY":-1,"AcZ":-1},{"AcX":-1,"AcY":-1,"AcZ":-1},{"AcX":-1,"AcY":-1,"AcZ":-1}]
It seems all correct but the debug node show nothing. what am I missing?
Here's the code:
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Mar-07 at 18:56Normally debug should show you what you are publishing to your MQTT broker. As simple troubleshooting I would start moving backwards:
- Replace the NodeRED client by any other one. Is the problem still there? Very likely it will be meaning that the problem is not on the MQTT client.
So we move a step "backwards"
- Replace the MQTT Broker, use another one from the internet, one that you know works fine. The problem, is it still there? If it's not there, voilà, you found the problem (the broker), if it's still there, it means that the issue is on client publishing your msgs. It might be the msg itself.
So we move a step "backwards"
- Replace you msg by another one, much simpler. Does it work ?
You get the idea :)
QUESTION
The MPU-6050 is a popular module that contains a temperature sensor, accelerometer, and gyroscope. A user may read the sensor information over I2C or SPI. Two documents are publicly available for reading data out of the IC registers. These are:
ContextReading individual registers of the IMU over I2C skews samples across time because of bus communication latency. Consequently, a sequential read of the X, Y, and Z axis registers of a sensor are not synchronized. To address this, the device provides a 1024-byte internal FIFO queue. Data configured to be pushed to the queue are pushed together at the sample rate. Hence reading the FIFO yields synchronized data.
See (2), section 7.17:
ProblemThe MPU-60X0 contains a 1024-byte FIFO register that is accessible via the Serial Interface. The FIFO configuration register determines which data is written into the FIFO. Possible choices include gyro data, accelerometer data, temperature readings, auxiliary sensor readings, and FSYNC input. A FIFO counter keeps track of how many bytes of valid data are contained in the FIFO. The FIFO register supports burst reads. The interrupt function may be used to determine when new data is available
The datasheets specify that in order to read from the FIFO, you must perform the following:
- Enable the FIFO (bit 6, register
0x6A
, Document (1), Section 4.29) - Configure the FIFO with what sensor information to push (register
0x23
, Document (1), Section 4.7). I enableXG_FIFO_EN
,YG_FIFO_EN
,ZG_FIFO_EN
, andACCEL_FIFO_EN
by setting bits 6, 5, 4, and 3 respectively.
If you have performed these steps, then it claims (Document (1), Section 4.33) that:
Data is written to the FIFO in order of register number (from lowest to highest). If all the FIFO enable flags (see below) are enabled and all External Sensor Data registers (Registers 73 to 96) are associated with a Slave device, the contents of registers 59 through 96 will be written in order at the Sample Rate. The contents of the sensor data registers (Registers 59 to 96) are written into the FIFO buffer when their corresponding FIFO enable flags are set to 1 in FIFO_EN (Register 35).
However, I find that this does not hold true. Given the flags I have enabled in the configuration register, I expect the following sequence to come from the FIFO:
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Mar-02 at 19:22Okay, so I've figured out the problem. The issue was that I was failing to reset the FIFO prior to reading it - otherwise everything was more or less okay. I'll show you exactly how I setup the IMU now.
Source FilesI created a source file to read the MPU-6050 registers. I've attached them here for reference in the following explanation:
SetupIn order to setup the IMU, I performed the following steps within a FreeRTOS task (prior to the main loop).

QUESTION
This might sound like a very silly question, so I apologize if this is something very simple but I just cannot get my head around it. I am trying to understand what the data provides in terms of real time information, for example, the MPU-6050:
Gyroscope - is a 16 bit data register with a range from (0 <-> 65535) There is a selection of ranges (±250, ±500, ±1000, and ±2000°/sec)
If the range is set to ±250°/sec, is the reading 360/65535 = 0.0054 resolution?
What does °/sec mean, if the sensor does not move and reads zero and then turned quickly does it mean it will be reading the angle at the set range? For example, if the range was set to ±2000°/sec and it was moved 200° would the read move from 0 to (2/65535 *200) and keep sending this value once the sensor stopped moving?
Accelerometer - is a 16 bit data register with a range from (0 <-> 65535) There is a selection of ranges (±2g, ±4g, ±8g and ±16g)
If the sensor is not moving, completely flat the reading will be 0? If the sensor is shocked at 2g will the max reading be 65535 (if set of 2g, with a resolution of 2/65535) If the sensor is shocked at 16g will the max reading be 65535 (if set of 16g, with a resolution of 16/65535))
...ANSWER
Answered 2019-Feb-10 at 00:16There are two main documents regarding the MPU6050, and those are the datasheet and the register map.
The gyro measurements are stored in the GYRO_XOUT, GYRO_YOUT, GYRO_ZOUT parameters, as you can see in the register map document, page 31. Each parameter is stored as a 2-complement signed 16 bit value split into two 8-bit registers: the GYRO_xOUT_L and _H.
In the same page, you can see the sensitivity for each full-scale range. For example, if your FSR is +/- 250º/sec, and you want to measure 1º/sec, the GYRO_xOUT parameter should read 131 counts.
The accelerometer-related registers can be seen in the same document, page 29. The idea is the same, two 8-bit registers to form a 2-complement signed 16-bit value, and the sensitivity values for each FSR.
Regarding your question in comments, if you rotate the device 125º in a second, at constant rotation speed, you should read 16375 in the rotation registers during the movement. This value comes from 131 counts/(º/sec) * 125º/sec = 16375 counts.
QUESTION
I'm using an ESP32 to try to read from an IMU, the MPU-6050. I'm using the code that is available on the Arduino web site with a slight variation; I'm checking the error code on endTransmission and am printing it (I started to do this because I was getting all zero values back from my calls to read the MPU registers). On the very first call to initialize the MPU I receive a success error code. But for ever call after that I receive error code 7. What's odd is when I trace through the Wire library I find that there is no error code 7 defined. The function in question only has 4 possible return values and 7 isn't one of them.
Here is the entirity of the code.
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Sep-07 at 17:56I found the problem. Well, it's not really a problem as much as a different implementation.
The EPS32 is using a different implementation of the Wire library. It has other return values that the one packaged with the Arduino software does not.

QUESTION
I am using Visual Studio 2017 Communitiy version/ .NET Framework 4.6.1/ WPF. Btw. I use MVVM.
My aim is to display all available serialports in a Combobox. I already implemented this but now I want to make the Combobox automatically update when the Dropdowmenu is opened or a new device is connected. Therefore I would need some property to make Binding
to my ViewModel
.
On MSDN I found Combobox.DroppedDown-Property which sounds good for me, but I can't use it, DroppedDown is not found...(is System.Windows.Forms
the right Reference?).
Do you find my mistake or do you maybe have a better solution?
Thanks!
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Jun-12 at 12:37I don't see where you're setting the ViewModel so I'll assume it's in code behind. (Personally I prefer to set it in XAML also and never touch code behind in MVVM but that's nothing to do with this.)
If you're using your ViewModel for binding then the ViewModel is responsible for translating anything you want a view to react to and notify the listening views. However, business / application logic doesn't really live in ViewModel either. What I suggest may be a Singleton class that listens to and communicates the ports for you. Have it manage the list of ports etc. Then your ViewModel can listen to that class and update itself whenever a device is connected etc. As soon as the ViewModel updates (if wired correctly) then the view should update as well. So that solves when a device is connected your view updates... Super easy so far. Now let's make it update as well when you click the ComboBox dropdown.
To make this happen we want to add an ICommand to the ViewModel (I would do this in the form of a RelayCommand that you'll need to make yourself or try a third party version like SpeckyWPF nuget package.)
Once you have a command in the ViewModel have it point to the method you use to update the serial ports.
Now in the View, when you click the ComboBox you have an event. I suggest not using code behind, which may seem easier, but to make an AttachableProperty or custom ComboBox control so that you can attach a command to this event. (There are also third party tools to help you do this as well.)
What will happen is your ViewModel becomes the notifying in all cases. You simply bind to the command to update it and call it when needed and or just wait for a device to be plugged in. The View itself won't require any change except for adding the command and all of the notifications are in the VM and the logic in the class it belongs for serial port.
QUESTION
What is the problem and why do we need to do this?
I recently purchased an MPU6050 breakout board. I tried it with my Arduino Uno, and with my Raspberry Pi 3.
It gives this weird output with Raspberry (without any motion / in stable condition)!
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Apr-11 at 13:41It seems to work better on your Raspberry than your arduino actually.
On your Arduino output, the values of accelerometer are practically 0, which doesn't make sense because you always have an acceleration due to earth gravity pull, even if your board isn't moving at all.
Same for the gyroscope, the initial position will be at power up and then if you move it, values will change and later even if it is static, it would keep these position.
From the output you provided, the Raspberry seem to provide correct data while the Arduino seems to have issue.
It seems the issue comes from your Arduino. Given arduino has much less processing power, I would suggest to look into your arduino setup.
One reason could be the lack of pullup resistor on the I2C bus.
QUESTION
I'm working on a project using InvenSense's Motion Driver API to read values from the MPU-6050. As a start I'm trying to get the temperature.
Reading the register documentation there is the following sentence.
The temperature in degrees C for a given register value may be computed as: Temperature in degrees C = (TEMP_OUT Register Value as a signed quantity)/340 + 36.53
In the source code of this API there is the following function
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Mar-15 at 11:37This is actually the same.
- 65536 is convertion to Q-format
- Both documentation and source say:
.temp_sens = 340, .temp_offset = -521
- Now we have: 35 + (R - -521) / 340 == 35 + R / 340 + 521 / 340 == 35 + 1.53 + R/340
