5.3 Setup view
The purpose of the
Setup
view is to provide controls for setting up the measurements and data
calculations. Controls in this view are specific for the sensor type, i.e. an accelerometer will have
different controls compared to a combination sensor with accelerometer and gyroscope. Also,
some controls might be disabled if the sensor does not support these features. All parameter
values are stored to an initialization file and they are reloaded automatically during the next start up
(except the controls
Zero offsets
and
Save output data to file
).

5.3.1 Operation mode
The
Operation mode
control lists all possible operation modes for the selected sensor. Figure 6
shows an example of the SCA3100 sensor. Additional operation modes typically include power
saving modes or special measurement modes. Changing the m
ode will first write the sensor’s
"
mode
" register, then flush the status registers, and finally reload the measurement setup (macro).
Note that this control is not visible if there is only one operation mode for the selected
sensor.
