Just wondering if there is a sweet spot in the number of calibration points one should acquire in order to get the best magnetometer calibration with the MOT0110. Is it a matter of the more points the better, or not necessarily so? As I get more points, the calibration does not seem to improve more ...
Well, I found what causes the closing/crashing of the Phidget Control Panel! But as far as why it does that, I do not have a clue. The root cause is the linguistic duality of our country! Being francophones in the province of Quebec, our Windows PC are set to the Canada french language and, running ...
As I do not use Windows often, I had to go through a longish Windows update before I could install the latest Phidget22 libraries (Phidget22-x65_1.20.20240910.exe) and test the GUI and graphical calibration. Unfortunately, neither the magnetometer calibration routine nor the 'spatial' window run to ...
As a follow-up on my post, I have since found the C language magnetometer calibration software "Phidget22_Spatial_CompassCalibrator_C_Ex_20240411" and, after correcting a small linker bug related to a doubly defined variable, I ran it to perform calibration of the MOT0110_0. It does the jo...
I am trying to use a Phidgets MOT0110_0 AHRS unit to get the attitude of an astronomical telescope so I can view remotely the position of the mount and optical tube assembly in quasi real-time with 'vpython'. Everything seems to be working correctly except for one thing, the magnetometer calibration...
