RD3152mma7260Q and labview?

[Zeder]

Hello,

First post here, hope it is in the correct place.

I am trying to get X,Y,Z data out of the ZSTAR accelerometer eval board into Labview.  I can recognise the USB reciever in Labview, but am having problems understanding how to communicate with this device.  Could somebody steer me in the correct direction please?  I am new to Freescale product, but am very familiar with LabView and am really having problems on where to start with getting these 2 systems to talk with each other.  ANY input would be greatly appreciated, suggested reading, links whatever!  Like I said I am just starting down this path and all comments suggestion would be welcome.

Cheers,

Z

Hi Zeder,

 The reference manual for ZSTAR can be found at the link below.  Page 42 describes the text-based protocol which communicates over a usb using the virtual serial port class.  Therefore in Labview you should be able to use a VISA Serial Com port instance to interface with the usb stick.  You just have to know what com port on your PC the usb stick is assigned to.

Best of luck.
