Configuration¶
To calibrate the magnetometer, follow the steps:
1. Connect MEX to a computer¶
To establish that connection, use the Veronte Link application acording to its user manual.
2. Create a tunnel communication¶
Open MEX PDI Builder and select the connected MEX on the marked button.
MEX PDI Builder¶
Click on Open MEX \(\Rightarrow\)
menu \(\Rightarrow\) I/O Setup panel, then connect a custom message producer with a tunnel consumer. For more information on custom messages and tunnelling, please refer to the I/O Setup section of the MEX PDI Builder user manual.
I/O Setup - Configuration¶
Click on the
button of the producer to configure it and then on 
to add a message. It must be configured with the following parameters:
Endianness: Mixed endian
Period: 0.25 s
Delay: 0 s
Producer Custom Message - Settings¶
Then, click on
to add the necessary fields to this message. The structure and variables of the message must be the following:Internal LIS3MDL Magnetometer Raw X in SI, Internal LIS3MDL Magnetometer Raw Y in SI and Internal LIS3MDL Magnetometer Raw Z in SI:
Variable: Internal LIS3MDL Magnetometer Raw X in SI / Internal LIS3MDL Magnetometer Raw Y in SI / Internal LIS3MDL Magnetometer Raw Z in SI
Compression: Uncompress
Encode/Decode: 1
Sensor-Internal Magnetometer (LIS3MDL):
Variable: Sensor-Internal Magnetometer (LIS3MDL)
Compression: Uncompress
CRC (crc16veronte):
Type: Polynomial
Endianness: Little endian
Crc-Preset: crc16veronte
BackFrom: 12
BackTo: 0
Binary mode
Producer Custom Message - Configuration¶
The tunnel consumer requires the following configuration:
Veronte ID: App 2
Parser: No protocol
Destination tunnel: Tunnel producer 1
Time between messages: 0.1 s
Bytes to send: 15 bytes
Consumer Tunnel - Configuration¶
Finally click on
to save the configuration in MEX.
