Changing gyro range for Puck-js sensor
#1
I have measured angular velocities of a Puck-js sensor spinning on a wheel.
   

I encountered a similar challenge that I did for measurements with a TI SensorTag: the default range for the device is too low. Dominik clarified that the SensorTag's firmware makes it difficult to change the gyro ranges. https://phyphox.org/forums/showthread.ph...08#pid3508


But the Puck-js uses a LSM6DS3TR-C. The spec sheet for that device says explicitly that it has an adjustable angular rate change:

Quote:The LSM6DS3TR-C has a full-scale acceleration range of ±2/±4/±8/±16 g and
an angular rate range of ±125/±250/±500/±1000/±2000 dps.

On page 22 of the spec sheet, it mentions a self-test mode:
Quote:Angular rate self-test output change(14)(15)

And on page 62 of the spec sheet it describes the registers for control of the angular rate change:
Quote:9.14 CTRL2_G (11h)
Angular rate sensor control register 2 (r/w).
Table 53. CTRL2_G register
Table 54. CTRL2_G register description ODR_G3 ODR_G2 ODR_G1 ODR_G0 FS_G1 FS_G0 FS_125 0(1) 1. This bit must be set to ‘0’ for the correct operation of the device. ODR_G [3:0] Gyroscope output data rate selection. Default value: 0000 (Refer to Table 55) FS_G [1:0] Gyroscope full-scale selection. Default value: 00 (00: 245 dps; 01: 500 dps; 10: 1000 dps; 11: 2000 dps)

On the Phyphox page describing Puck-js sensing (https://phyphox.org/wiki/index.php/Puck.js) you invite requests for assistance. Could someone help to identify the i2c device and register numbers for writing to and reading from the Puck-js sensor so that I have the full 2000 dps range for the gyroscope?

Thank you!
