Hello:

I have a Freescale Sensor Toolbox development board (FRDM-FXS-MULT2-B) that states in the user guide it can be connected to an Arduino board. I do not have a NXP board so I tried using an Arduino board, however I do not know how to interface the sensors and communicate with the Sensor Toolbox. I installed the Sensor Fusion application for windows (http://www.nxp.com/sensorfusion) however I cannot get it to work when connected to the Arduino (as a shield).

How do I proceed with using an Arduino to interface the sensors on the Sensor Toolbox board?

Thanks

Hello Rhino,

I have just tried to download Freescale Sensor Toolbox Community Edition from the link and I have received the same answer. It looks its not supported anymore. Fortunately I have found it in my PC disk. But the file is too big to send it in this community. Could you please create a new ticket here? I will send you the Freescale Sensor Toolbox Community Edition in there. 

With Best Regards,

Jozef

As Michael mentioned, unfortunately we do not have a software for Arduino, but perhaps some enthusiast have already created a software and shared it. The Kinetis boards, that are supported are in this link.
