When you double click on a Magnetometer object, a window like the one pictured will open.

  • At the top of the window, information about your device and the properties of this particular channel will be listed.
  • On the left, change trigger and/or data interval can be changed. For more information on these settings, see the Data Rate/Change Trigger page. There is also a button for setting the calibration parameters. For more information about calibration, see the technical section.
  • On the right, the current readings for each axis of the magnetometer are displayed in Gauss, along with the time in milliseconds.
  • At the bottom is a graphical diagram that may help you visualize the magnetic field vector.
