Understanding the Accelerometer Demonstrations
The sensor toolbox has several demonstrations for the MMA865xQ accelerometers, each showcasing the
built-in intelligence of the individual devices. The demos include tilt detection, orientation detection,
directional tap, and directional shake. There also is a full-system evaluation mode that allows you to
evaluate the sensor at the register level.

Opening the sensor toolbox software
To launch the toolbox software, either double-click on the application’s desktop icon or choose Start >
Programs > Sensor Toolbox > Sensor Toolbox. This displays the sensor toolbox’s hardware-detection
dialog box, shown below.
If the LFSTBUSB USB-interface board is connected properly, then the software will detect which of the
MMA865xQ daughter boards is attached to the evaluation board, and display the device-specific menus.
Upon device connection, the software displays the demo launcher menu, shown in the next illustration.
