Show Notes

The Adafruit CLUE board comes with a magnetometer & magnetometers need calibration before use. Sometimes a program is used to help calibrate but since there's a screen, we can calibrate on-board using the display. Before calibration, the X/Y/Z data is shown as red, green and blue balls of datapoints that are not centered. Once you see enough data, press A to calibrate. Then the X/Y/Z data will be calibrated-centered! #adafruit #microbit #arduino Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Adafruit on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adafruit Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------
