Read resgister LSM6DSO32 Arduino - arduino

I would like to read some register from a LSM6DSO32 captor. But I've a problem for me tha values I got are strange. I user Atmel SAMD21 Cortex M0 and i2C for communicate with the captor. First off all I set my captor to 8g and 500° for gyroscope like that
#define DSO_ADDRESS 0x6A
void setup() {
SerialUSB.begin(115200);
while(!SerialUSB);
Wire.begin();
//gyro 500°
Wire.beginTransmission(DSO_ADDRESS);
Wire.write(0x11);
Wire.write(0x44);
Wire.endTransmission();
//accel 8g
Wire.beginTransmission(DSO_ADDRESS);
Wire.write(0x10);
Wire.write(0x48);
Wire.endTransmission();
}
For me this is works beceause if I read 0x10 after I get 0x48 value, and if I try to read who i am register I get the good value 0x6C.
After that I try to read registers value, my readSensor function
//gloabl variables to store values
int temperature;
int gyro_raw[3] = {0, 0, 0};
int acc_raw[3] = {0 , 0 , 0};
void readSensor(){
Wire.beginTransmission(DSO_ADDRESS);
Wire.write(0x20);
Wire.endTransmission();
Wire.requestFrom(DSO_ADDRESS, 14);
uint8_t buff[14];
Wire.readBytes(buff, 14);
temperature = buff[1] << 8 | buff[0];
gyro_raw[X] = buff[3] << 8 | buff[2];
gyro_raw[Y] = buff[5] << 8 | buff[4];
gyro_raw[Z] = buff[7] << 8 | buff[6];
acc_raw[X] = buff[9] << 8 | buff[8];
acc_raw[Y] = buff[11] << 8 | buff[10];
acc_raw[Z] = buff[13] << 8 | buff[12];
}
So if I called this function 2000 times for exemple to get an offset I got very strange values
long gyro_offset[3] = {0, 0, 0};
int max_samples = 500;
for (int i = 0; i < max_samples; i++) {
readSensor();
gyro_offset[X] += gyro_raw[X];
gyro_offset[Y] += gyro_raw[Y];
gyro_offset[Z] += gyro_raw[Z];
delay(50);
}
gyro_offset[X] /= max_samples;
gyro_offset[Y] /= max_samples;
gyro_offset[Z] /= max_samples;
X Y and Z are defined by value 0,1 and 2. So if I print gyro_offset[X] I get value 23 for me this is normal, but for gyro_offset[Y] and gyro_offset[Z] I got a big value around 65514 and for me these aren't good no ?

Emdedded C strcpy copies only first 10 bytes

I am experiencing a problem in Atmel Studio when using memcpy or strcpy. When the switch evaluates to TYPE3, only the first 10 bytes are copied. When the order of the cases are exchanged with each other, other strcpy's work. I really cannot see why this could make a difference, and why a simple strcpy won't work. Any help is appreciated.

} t_RdmPacket;
Then in the handling of the packet:

const char* responderText = "Multi RDM Responder";
const char* dummyText = "Dummy RDM Responder";
if (slaveDevice == -1)
{
strcpy((char*)Rdm.Packet.ParameterData, responderText);
size = 19;

switch(SlaveResponder[slaveDevice].DeviceModelID)

PORTD SET_B(3); // Debug LED On
}
break;
default:
strcpy((char*)Rdm.Packet.ParameterData, dummyText);

break;
}
}
createRdmHeader(uid);
Rdm.Packet.ResponseType = RESPONSE_TYPE_ACK;
Rdm.Packet.CommandClass = GET_COMMAND_RESPONSE;
Rdm.Packet.PDL = size;
Rdm.Packet.MessageLength = 24 + Rdm.Packet.PDL;
checkSum = calculateCheckSum();

setWaitTimer();
}
I'll expand my comment.
AFAIK I know the function strcpy() has two arguments strcpy(char * to, char* from), where to and from are adresses. You used it with exact string, maybe there is no warnings because your IDE disabled it. Make sure that you use -Wall when compiling.
I think you should try use some const char * constant_value = "5432154321543215", instead of invoking strcpy with second argument as string.
For me is hard to say what is your strcpy implementation.
At first in your situation I would make sure, you see all warnings from compilation.

Arduino I2C Slave to Master communication problem

I am having a problem with reading random data in my Arduino Mega (Master) from my Arduino Uno (Slave) while using I2C communication.
Some background: I am reading Encoder data from the Uno and sending to the Mega via I2C communication. The encoder data is been used in the MEga to adjust the speed of a motor so that the revolutions per second of the different wheels have the same value.
The issue of reading random data arises when I include an IF condition or function.
Even if the IF condition included is an empty one or a call to function which has an empty body it starts to read random wrong data from the Uno.
If i don't have the adjusting part (IF condition/ function) of the code the reading of the data from the Uno works fine.
If anybody can help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Divided and duplicated frame capture output for ADNS 9800 Arduino

I am trying to interface an ADNS 9800 mouse chip which I took from "Sharkoon SHARK ZONE M50" . The original PCB is still in place.
I am trying to obtain a framecapture, which should be 30 x 30 pixels. I have connected the ADNS 9800 with SPI to an Arduino UNO Rev 3 (i.e. 5V operating voltage). I.e. MISO, MOSI, SCLK, DGND, AGND, NCS. I did not connect any voltage, since I concluded from previous attempts that that did not yield a good frame capture.
The current problem is that I get a frame capture that is divided in 3 parts: square top left (with a good image of the surroundings), square bottom left (which is a duplicate of top left) and a rectangle on the right half of the screen of monotone grey colour (which does change depending on light conditions). See image. I want the full screen to be one image, not the divided mess it is now. Therefore, it may be a question of the resolution that is used, it may be that it is 15x15 instead of 30x30. However I do not know where this is determined/set.
Also, I find it strange that no input voltage seems to be needed to obtain an image from the camera.
See attachments for frame capture and code (arduino + processing).

Arduino - Adafruit 16-channel board, how to properly control all channels with less delay?

I am trying to control a few (8 for now) servo motors using this 16-channel board. I am running to some issues about accuracy, for example, when moving a couple of motors do draw a diagonal line, because of the delay between each servo, each motor will move in different timing resulting in incorrect drawings.
I am not sure about how to drive the motors in the fastest way in therms of code.
Where to set delays, the baud rate settings for this application, etc. I couldn't find a good example using all channels with minimum delay. In my case, messages are coming from serial, as explained in the code comment.
Is this the right way to drive this board channels?
I am using an arduino uno, but I would like to check if using a Teensy 3.2 results in best performances for this application.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Why does serial communication only work in one direction (chip->PC) with my code?

I am writing code for an Arduino Mega 2560 in C and I am trying to do bidirectional communication over the serial port. However, only sending data from the Arduino to the PC works - the other way doesn't. The RX LED on the arduino shortly lights up, but my code doesn't receive the data (the LED connected to "pin 13" doesn't light up). Does anyone know how to fix this?
Here's the code that's running on the arduino:
#define USART_BAUDRATE 500000
#define BAUD_PRESCALE (((F_CPU / (USART_BAUDRATE * 16UL))) - 1)
static void serial_init(void) {
// load upper 8 bits of the baud rate into the high byte of the UBRR register
UBRR0H = (BAUD_PRESCALE >> 8);
// load lower 8 bits of the baud rate into the low byte of the UBRR register
UBRR0L = BAUD_PRESCALE;
// 8data,1stopbit
UCSR0C = (0 << UMSEL00) | (1 << UCSZ00) | (1 << UCSZ01);
// turn on the transmission and reception circuitry
UCSR0B = (1 << RXEN0) | (1 << TXEN0) | (0 << UCSZ02);
}
static void sendbyte(uint8_t b) {
// do nothing until UDR is ready for more data to be written to it
while ((UCSR0A & (1 << UDRE0)) == 0) {};
// memory was cleared - write to it
UDR0 = b;
}
static void digi_init() {
// configure port B7 (arduino digital port 13) as output and set it low
PORTB = (0<<PB7);
DDRB = (1<<DDB7);
}
static void digi_set(int val) {
PORTB = (val<<PB7);
}
int main(void) {
serial_init();
digi_init();
while (1) {
if ((UCSR0A & (1 << RXC0)) == 1) {
// we got some data, light up the LED!
digi_set(1);
}
_delay_ms(50);
sendbyte('.');
}
}
And here's the code that's running on the PC:
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
char *serialdevicepath = "/dev/ttyACM0";
fprintf(stderr, "Connecting to serial device ...\n");
int serial_fd = open(serialdevicepath, O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY);
struct termios config;
if(tcgetattr(serial_fd, &config) < 0) exit(1);
config.c_iflag &= ~(IGNBRK | BRKINT | ICRNL | INLCR | PARMRK | INPCK | ISTRIP | IXON);
config.c_lflag &= ~(ECHO | ECHONL | ICANON | IEXTEN | ISIG);
config.c_cflag &= ~(CSIZE | PARENB);
config.c_cflag |= CS8;
config.c_cc[VMIN] = 1;
config.c_cc[VTIME] = 0;
if(cfsetispeed(&config, B500000) < 0 || cfsetospeed(&config, B500000) < 0) exit(1);
if(tcsetattr(serial_fd, TCSAFLUSH, &config) < 0) exit(1);
FILE *serial = fdopen(serial_fd, "r");
setbuf(stdin, NULL);
fcntl(0/*stdin*/, F_SETFL, O_NONBLOCK);
setbuf(stdout, NULL);
setbuf(stderr, NULL);
setbuf(serial, NULL);
while (1) {
char c;
while (read(0, &c, 1) == 1) {
if (c != '+' && c != '-') continue;
uint8_t val = (c == '+') ? 42 : 41;
if (write(serial_fd, &val, 1) != 1) {
assert(0);
}
}
char b = fgetc(serial))&0xe0);
fprintf(stderr, "read 0x%x\n", b);
}
return 0;
}
(And yes, I am typing <+> on the PC so that it does send data. Also, I tried turning on the LED from the code directly and it worked.)
if ((UCSR0A & (1 << RXC0)) == 1)
That test is wrong, it will never be 1. The & operator here will produce either 0 or (1 << RXC0). Favor it this way instead:
if ((UCSR0A & (1 << RXC0)) != 0)
Or in C you'd typically write it this way since any non-zero value is logically true:
if (UCSR0A & (1 << RXC0))
