5. คู่มือการใช้งาน

Once connected, the WitMotion software (PC or APP) will display real-time data from the sensor. You can monitor acceleration, angular velocity, angles, magnetic field, and GPS data. The software provides various display modes, including graphical representations and 3D models, to visualize the sensor's attitude and motion.

Ensure the sensor is placed on a stable, non-magnetic surface during operation to avoid interference with magnetic field readings. For GPS functionality, operate the sensor outdoors with a clear view ของท้องฟ้า

6. การสอบเทียบ

Accurate calibration is crucial for optimal sensor performance. The WitMotion software provides tools for Acceleration, Magnetic Field, and Angle Reference calibration.

6.1. การสอบเทียบความเร่ง

To decrease acceleration bias, place the sensor horizontally on an even surface and initiate acceleration calibration through the software. The software will guide you through the process, typically requiring the sensor to remain still for a few seconds.

Video: Demonstrates acceleration calibration using the WitMotion Android app. The sensor is placed horizontally, and the calibration function is activated, showing the acceleration values stabilizing.

6.2. Magnetic Field Calibration

Magnetic field calibration compensates for local magnetic disturbances. This process involves rotating the sensor 360° around its X, Y, and Z axes respectively while connected to the software. Ensure no magnetic interference is present during this process.

Video: Shows magnetic field calibration using the WitMotion PC software. The sensor is rotated 360 degrees around each axis to collect data for calibration, ensuring accurate magnetic readings.

Video: Explains three methods of magnetic field calibration: Ellipse Fitting, Dual-Plane, and Octal Calibration. This video is highly relevant for understanding and performing magnetic calibration for the sensor.

6.3. Angle Reference Setting

The angle reference function allows you to define a specific orientation as the zero-degree reference for the X and Y axes. This is useful for applications where a custom reference point is needed.

Video: This video also covers setting the angle reference using the PC software, demonstrating how to define a custom zero-degree orientation for the sensor's X and Y axes.
