# Wio Terminal IMU Sensor
|
|
|
|
In this section, we will detail how the sensors work, how to get sensor data using Wio Terminal and how to send the data out using Wio Terminal & Grove - Wio-E5.
|
|
|
|
## Working Principle of Sensors
|
|
|
|
In this section we need to learn to use the IMU sensor built into the Wio Terminal.
|
|
|
|
The LIS3DHTR acceleration sensor is a piezoelectric sensor, which converts the acceleration of the object to be measured into the change of the voltage of the sensing unit, and then converts the value of the change of the sensing unit into a voltage value through a conversion circuit, followed by the corresponding amplification of the signal and the filtering process to process the analog quantity into a suitable and stable output signal, at which time the output signal is a voltage value, and finally converted into a digital signal through an ADC converter.

## Preliminary Preparation
|
|
|
|
### Connection
|
|
|
|
In this routine, we need to connect to a nearby LoRa® gateway with the help of Grove LoRa® E5. We need to configure the Grove port on the right side of the Wio Terminal as a soft serial port to receive AT commands.

|
|
|
|
!!!Note
|
|
Why not use the Grove port on the left?
|
|
> The Grove interface on the left is IIC capable, and we use the IIC interface for most sensors, so keeping it is a better solution.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Software preparation
|
|
|
|
**Step 1.** You need to Install an Arduino Software.
|
|
|
|
<p style=":center"><a href="https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software" target="_blank"><div align=center><img width=600 src="https://files.seeedstudio.com/wiki/Seeeduino_Stalker_V3_1/images/Download_IDE.png" /></div></a></p>
|
|
|
|
**Step 2.** Launch the Arduino application.
|
|
|
|
<div align=center><img width=800 src="https://files.seeedstudio.com/wiki/seeed_logo/arduino.jpg"/></div>
|
|
|
|
**Step 3.** Add Wio Terminal to the Arduino IDE.
|
|
|
|
Open your Arduino IDE, click on `File > Preferences`, and copy below url to Additional Boards Manager URLs:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
https://files.seeedstudio.com/arduino/package_seeeduino_boards_index.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<div align=center><img width=800 src="https://files.seeedstudio.com/wiki/Wio-Terminal/img/Boardurl.png"/></div>
|
|
|
|
Click on `Tools > Board > Board Manager` and Search **Wio Terminal** in the Boards Manager.
|
|
|
|
<div align=center><img width=800 src="https://files.seeedstudio.com/wiki/Wio-Terminal/img/addBoard.png"/></div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Step 4.** Select your board and port
|
|
|
|
You'll need to select the entry in the `Tools > Board` menu that corresponds to your Arduino. Selecting the **Wio Terminal**.
|
|
|
|
<div align=center><img width=800 src="https://files.seeedstudio.com/wiki/Wio-Terminal/img/selectBoard.png"/></div>
|
|
|
|
Select the serial device of the Wio Terminal board from the `Tools -> Port` menu. This is likely to be COM3 or higher (COM1 and COM2 are usually reserved for hardware serial ports). To find out, you can disconnect your Wio Terminal board and re-open the menu; the entry that disappears should be the Arduino board. Reconnect the board and select that serial port.
|
|
|
|
!!!Tip
|
|
For Mac User, it will be something like `/dev/cu.usbmodem141401`.
|
|
|
|
If you are not able to upload the sketch, mostly it's because Arduino IDE was not able to put Wio Terminal to bootloader mode. (Because MCU was halted or your program handling USB) Workaround is putting your Wio Terminal to bootloader mode manually.
|
|
|
|
<div align=center><img width=400 src="https://files.seeedstudio.com/wiki/Wio-Terminal/img/Wio-Terminal-Bootloader.png"/></div>

**Step 3.** Obtain IMU sensor 3-axis data
|
|
|
|
<p style=":center"><a href="https://github.com/limengdu/Seeed-Studio-LoRaWAN-Dev-Kit/tree/main/sensor/Get-IMU-value" target="_blank"><div align=center><img width = 300 src="https://files.seeedstudio.com/wiki/seeed_logo/github.png" /></div></a></p>
|
|
|
|
This repo demonstrates how to use the built-in IMU sensor as a component in Wio Terminal. Using the library's **getAccelerationX()**, **getAccelerationY()**, and **getAccelerationZ()** functions, you can directly obtain the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis offsets of the IMU sensor. These three values may be positive or negative float numbers.
|
|
|
|
```c++
|
|
#include"LIS3DHTR.h"
|
|
LIS3DHTR<TwoWire> lis;
|
|
|
|
void setup() {
|
|
Serial.begin(115200);
|
|
lis.begin(Wire1);
|
|
|
|
if (!lis) {
|
|
Serial.println("ERROR");
|
|
while(1);
|
|
}
|
|
lis.setOutputDataRate(LIS3DHTR_DATARATE_25HZ); //Data output rate
|
|
lis.setFullScaleRange(LIS3DHTR_RANGE_2G); //Scale range set to 2g
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
void loop() {
|
|
float x_values, y_values, z_values;
|
|
x_values = lis.getAccelerationX();
|
|
y_values = lis.getAccelerationY();
|
|
z_values = lis.getAccelerationZ();
|
|
|
|
Serial.print("X: "); Serial.print(x_values);
|
|
Serial.print(" Y: "); Serial.print(y_values);
|
|
Serial.print(" Z: "); Serial.print(z_values);
|
|
Serial.println();
|
|
delay(50);
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Open the serial monitor of Arduino IDE and select the baud rate as 115200 and observe the result.

## Send data via Grove - Wio-E5
|
|
|
|
We combine the previous code of Grove - Wio-E5 to connect to the LoRa® network. Using the AT command it is possible to send the value of the IMU sensor to the LoRa® network.
|
|
|
|
As we know from the code in the section above to get the IMU sensor value, the IMU sensor values are three separate float numbers that may have both positive and negative values, and are accurate to two decimal places.
|
|
|
|
Due to the limitations of sending data, we first need to solve the problem of converting float numbers to integers on the sending side to ensure that the data sent is an integer, so we multiply all three axes of data by 100.
|
|
|
|
In this way, we determine the content, size and format of the data to be sent via the AT command. We might as well set up a large enough array, store the strings we need to send into the array, and finally use the **send_sync()** function to send the array out.
|
|
|
|
The pseudo-code for the above idea is roughly as follows.
|
|
|
|
```c
|
|
......
|
|
float x_values, y_values, z_values;
|
|
x_values = lis.getAccelerationX();
|
|
y_values = lis.getAccelerationY();
|
|
z_values = lis.getAccelerationZ();
|
|
|
|
int x = x_values*100;
|
|
int y = y_values*100;
|
|
int z = z_values*100;
|
|
|
|
static uint8_t data[6] = { 0x00 }; //Use the data[] to store the values of the sensors
|
|
|
|
data_decord(x, y, z, data);
|
|
|
|
if ( lorae5.send_sync( //Sending the sensor values out
|
|
8, // LoRaWan Port
|
|
data, // data array
|
|
sizeof(data), // size of the data
|
|
false, // we are not expecting a ack
|
|
7, // Spread Factor
|
|
14 // Tx Power in dBm
|
|
)
|
|
)
|
|
......
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The rest of what we need to do is to use the `begin()` function to initialize Grove - Wio-E5 and the `setup()` function to configure the triplet information of Grove - Wio-E5. When we send a data message using the `send_sync()` function, we will try to join the LoRaWAN® at the same time, and once it succeeds, the data will be sent and information such as signal strength and address will be returned.

!!!Tip
|
|
We do not recommend that you upload the code now to see the results, because at this point you have not yet configured Helium/TTN and will get a "Join failed" result. We recommend that you upload this code after you have completed the [Connecting to Helium](https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/Connecting-to-Helium/) or [Connecting to TTN](https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/Connecting-to-TTN/) chapter to complete the complete data sending process.
