.. zephyr:code-sample:: accel_polling
:name: Generic 3-Axis accelerometer polling
:relevant-api: sensor_interface
Get 3-Axis accelerometer data from a sensor (polling mode).
Overview
********
This sample application demonstrates how to use 3-Axis accelerometers.
Building and Running
********************
This sample supports up to 10 3-Axis accelerometers. Each accelerometer needs
to be aliased as ``accelN`` where ``N`` goes from ``0`` to ``9``. For example:
.. code-block:: devicetree
/ {
aliases {
accel0 = &lis2dh;
};
};
Make sure the aliases are in devicetree, then build and run with:
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/sensor/accel_polling
:board: <board to use>
:goals: build flash
:compact:
