Accelerometer Configuration
The Accelerometer transducer offers two thresholds for event-based break-in and impact
detection. It can also be polled periodically for applications where the Sensor orientation may
be of interest. Table 3-8 shows a list of Accelerometer configuration registers.

3.4.3.1
Break-In Threshold
This parameter is the
𝑔
-threshold used for break-in detection. As soon as the
𝑔
-threshold is
tripped, a timer with a timeout is started. The timeout period is defined via Impact Debounce
Time (see Section 3.4.3.4). Within the timeout period, if the
𝑔
-threshold is tripped at least 4
times, a break-in alarm is raised.
