general setup notes for the parts involved in “quartet”
Another option for ./operate is -s [poll-time-msecs], and there is also -e [difference] for setting minimum difference (epsilon) for data output (0..65535).
The accelerometer system is based on the system developed for Project Txoom, so the Cerf Notes might be useful if things deviate too far from the script.
further instructions
- check System preferences > Network > Location is set to "sensors // no inet" - open 'terminal' - type sudo -s - enter password - type /usr/libexec/bootpd -D - connect the sensor to the ceed (black box) - check ethernet cable is connected to the laptop - connect the power to the ceed - wait - you can check the connection by typing tail -f /var/log/system.log and waiting for something like bootpd[453]: ACK sent familiar. 10.0.0.2 pktsize 300 the nu,ber starting with 10.0.0 will be the ip of the ceed - type ctrl-c to exit - connect to the ceed by typing ssh root@10.0.0.2 (the password is rootme) - follow the sensor setup instructions from here ... . - type insmod adxl.o - type ./operate -h 10.0.0.1 (note: this only works when something is listening ie; oz in max)
