3.2. Bluetooth Connection Steps

Follow these steps to connect your BWT901CL sensor via Bluetooth:

  1. Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone or PC.
  2. Open the WITMOTION application.
  3. Turn on the sensor. For WT9011DCL, press and hold the button for 3 seconds until the green light flashes. For BWT901CL and BWT61CL, simply power them on.
  4. In the app, navigate to the "Device Scan" or "Scan" section.
  5. Select the corresponding device from the list. WT901BLECL will appear as "WT901BLE", and BWT901CL will appear as "HC-06".
  6. Once connected, the app will display real-time sensor data.

4.1. Data Output and Interface

The WITMOTION app provides various data outputs and interfaces for monitoring the sensor's performance:

  • Ылдамдатуу: Displays 3-axis acceleration data.
  • Гироскоп: Shows 3-axis angular velocity.
  • Бурч: Provides pitch, roll, and yaw angles.
  • Магниттик: Displays 3-axis magnetic field data.
  • Quaternion: Shows quaternion values for orientation.

You can observe real-time data curves and numerical values for each parameter. The app also features a dashboard for an intuitive overview of all sensor attitude motion.

4.2. Калибрлөө

Calibration is crucial for accurate sensor readings. The app provides options for:

  • Acceleration Calibration: Place the sensor on a horizontal surface and initiate calibration. The X and Y acceleration values should return to 0, and Z-axis should show 1G, indicating successful calibration for acceleration bias.
  • Magnetic Calibration: This requires careful execution to avoid magnetic interference. Ensure the sensor is away from mobile phones, computers, or metal surfaces. The calibration process involves rotating the sensor 360 degrees horizontally and vertically. The app will guide you through the steps.

4.3. Конфигурация орнотуулары

Adjust various parameters to optimize sensor performance for your specific application:

  • Чыгуу ылдамдыгы: Change the data output frequency. The default is 10Hz, but it can be set up to a maximum of 200Hz.
  • Заводдук калыбына келтирүү: Бардык орнотууларды демейки маанилерине кайтарат.
  • Rename Function: Allows you to customize the device name (e.g., "WT123").
