Arduino ADXL325 through COM port

So I have created something like this on the picture. Unfortunately, it does not read any values. Also, such an error shows up. I will try to simplify the code, print only numbers and then read it in LabView I suppose.

I said those need to be %.3f.  I did not suggest %f.

Put an indicator on your raw string.  That way we know if anything is coming through.

I put %f.3 there but took a screenshot without it, my mistake.
So, after adding this "raw data" indicator, angle_xz worked, but angle_yz did not 😐

%f or %.3f should work.  It is concerning to me that you are only showing "84" for angle_xz.  It should be showing "84.026".  Are you in a part of the world that uses a comma as the decimal separator?  If so, your format string should be "%.;angle_xz=%fdgangle_yz=%fdg".  The "%.;" at the beginning forces the use of a period as the decimal separator.

Yes, you are right and it worked 🙂

It looks like yz worked as well.  It just happened to be 0!
