Acceleration measurement

The box measures acceleration in all three spatial directions.

Acceleration axes

The following figure shows the position of the acceleration axes X, Y and Z.

Acceleration measurement 1:

Measured values

The current measured acceleration values are transferred in the variables "Value" in the process data objects "AI Acc X/Y/Z Inputs".

Acceleration measurement 2:

In the factory setting, the measured values are scaled to 1 mg/LSB. The symbol g stands for the acceleration due to gravity 9.81 m/s². 1 mg corresponds to 0.00981 m/s².

Optionally, you can output the measured values with a higher resolution, see chapter Measured value resolution.
